Chain smoker at THREE?!??!?

[Idiot56209]

Just heard this news story where a kind in India was fed cigarettes since the age of three!!!

The parents hope that their child will end up in the Guiness book for youngest chain smoker.

A quote from the parents: "To keep a child quiet, we've found that cigarettes are better than toys!"

My take: They hope the kid dies so they can sue the tobacco companies.

Bizarre......

i've heard that if a family in india can't afford a daughter's dowry - they kill her by feeding her husked rice (not sure about term) until they choke & die. :Q

I have a cousin that started around age 10, his mother (my aunt) said "I'd rather he smoked in front of me than behind my back" we all thought she was pretty stupid. He's about 36 now and dosen't smoke anymore but he has a rough voice like an old smoker does.

Parents like that should be banned.
