Last Chance to comment on smoking in cars carrying children – ACT
Posted on February 26, 2009 by by valerirojas
“The ACT Government is concerned about smoking in cars where children are present and a consultation paper explores options for protecting our children from exposure to ETS”, MsGallagher said.
The consultation paper, released on 2 January 2009, canvasses a number of options for managing smoking in motor vehicles when children are present.
Visit the Department of Disability, Housing and Community Services or Department of Health for more information.

Personally, I feel that any individual who smokes around kids are ignorant, especially if they have a child of their own and smoking outside the house does not help, the smell of a cigarettes stays within your clothes, which the child will ends up smelling anyway. Think of the child’s health, not your expensive meaningless habits.
Sorry if I offended any one.

I emailed my feedback in a while ago. It was easy. People sometimes feel they have to write a long, official-looking submission. But really all they want to know is, “What do you think?”

I’m with Carol. I’ve never been a smoker, but the addiction must be pretty damn strong if you can’t give it up for your kids’ sake.

I’ve never been a smoker either, but last week my internet modem was playing up and I couldn’t use the internet for two days.
Do you have any idea how hard that was for me? on the day we went to my sister’s bday party and I had to use her PC to check out the W W W. Call me unsocial or whatever you want but hey that is my only drug.
I am sure there must be a help line for this type of addiction.

If there is a helpline I need it too, but I don’t think it will work ’cause I don’t want to be helped!
I love my internet addiction!!
Nevertheless I used to be quite a heavy chain smoker (sorry for the tautology) and there is nothing worse than a reformed smoker.
Be afraid … be very afraid!
