Marriage breakup is probably even more damaging....so what are you trying to prove?

I wouldnt agree in the slightest...many marriages breakdown and the children are far happier than when unhappy parents stay together...Im not trying to prove anything...smoking wth children in the room could be classified as a form of child abuse.....and leads to a higher rate of lung cancer and a horrible death.......there might be those criticising the mccanns who are exposing their children to an early death and do not realise it...

[Mr Gray]

what are you talking about ? what has smoking and marriage break up got to do with anything?

simple question...have you ever smoked with children in the room...its a form of child abuse...imo

You appear to be abusing IndigoJ by asking random questions with a view to proving he/she is a child abuser. This is unacceptable. Stop.

Im not accusing her of anything,,,it is not a random question...its a question about looking after and taking care of children...thats the topic she is posting on. Im making the point that ill treatment of children takes many forms

No doesn’t wash. Don’t do it again.

Im making a perfectly valid point...I wont direct it at any poster...but...more children are harmed by passive smoking than  being  left alone...

More children are harmed by marriage breakup than passive smoking or by being left alone....

And your point is?

Trying to understand what Davel is trying to prove,

Just providing evidence of what we already know?

I've never smoked and don't intend to start either, it's not relevant to this discussion.

And your point is?

my point is its unfair to single out the mccanns as not properly looking after their children when many parents...perhaps some here ...have not properly looked after theirs

it is fair to discuss it  when it is what happened in this case!

A completely facile argument... it’s ok to drink and drive because some people stab other people.
