20% of smokers light up around their children every day
The Irish Cancer Society (ICS) research, released today for National No Smoking Day, showed that while the majority of smokers believed tobacco exposure was “very harmful” for children, just one-third of parents who smoked kept all the rooms in their homes “smoke-free”.
According to the ICS, the survey found widespread misunderstanding among smokers of the proven risks of second-hand smoking to children.
