OMG this would be hilarious if it wasnt so serious lol. At first it brought a smile but I have to say I know how aggravating this is. When I stopped smoking 3 yrs ago (chantex) I banned smoking from the house. Hubby didnt quit and he still smokes outside. But problem is the kids and grandkids.. ugh.. I think the next one I catch smoking in here will get more than a beating! Amazing how people come live with you and refuse to play by the rules. People ranging in age from 40 to17... Do you think a jury would convict???
BEATING my child today!!!

I was two days into cold turkey quitting (before I got my pv 3 days later) and my oldest kid decided to have a bunch of friends over to play cards. He KNEW I was 2 days into not smoking and let his little bugger friends light up in my house. It smelled like a stale bar for 2 days!! I was so mad and he apologized profusely. He said he just didn't think about the smell of the smoke being a craving problem for me. Young ones......... Sigh.
My friends my age, who smoke, never once lit up in my house after I quit. They just automatically go outside to smoke now. I didn't ask them to, they just know how hard it is for a recent quitter to smell it. It's called consideration. Something most teenagers, early 20s persons just don't think about.
The smell repulses me now. Can't stand it.

Yep I never smoked in the house and even tried not to let my kids see me smoke. Neither of them ever picked up the habit.
Agreed. Time out, additional chores, taking away privleges all have their place...as does a spanking IMHO. One size fits all doesn't apply to discipline.
I remember how easy it was to get away with smoking. My mom used to smoke like a chimney and she smoked in the house. She smoked so much that she couldn't keep track of how many boxes were still in the carton, so I would steal a pack and slide all the other packs forward. I eventually got caught when I was 16. All my mom said was "I can't tell you to quit because you'll just go off and do it anyway, but I don't want you smoking in front of me." I think that was one case where I would've deserved it had she beat me. Would it have made me stop smoking? Who knows? Probably not.
So I woke up this morning, stretched, made coffee, got some clothes on took the dogs outside, I'm slightly out of wack this whole time, ALMOST crabby.
Get my first cup of coffee, sit down at the computer with my vape, and start waking up. I'm reading on the forums here and breathing through my nose (which I can FINALLY do again), and it finally hits me. NASTY NASTY smell!!! What the HELL is that nastey SMELL???
I get up and start looking around and I find ASHES. That rotten kid had a male over last night and they where smoking analogs in the house! /tap.
Is 19 to old to beat? SCRUB time for the BRAT!!!
HAHA! Kid is probably like damn these e-cigs, now they can smell me!
Just as an aside, my daughter smokes 'socially' I can remember that, the joke went I only have a cigarette when I drink, I'm now a twenty pint a day drinker.
My point is she will not use an e-cig because it's not cool (probably because I use one) so that just adds another lie to the 'think of children' nonsense, bull.... the anti mob promote.

lol having been raised both ways because my parents weren't together taking away privalages didn't work, neither did getting hit really though... i was just an evil little .......
This whole thing reminded me of my favorite spanking story. This is going back like 12 years but I swear it is true.
At the time, my wife had a casual friend she would go out with and she had a son about 11. This kid was an undisciplined little hellion and if he is not sitting in jail somewhere I would be seriously surprised. Not unless something really changed in his life/upbringing.
I certainly do blame his parents, well for one, they were one of those "I never hit my kid" believers and that is fine if you follow up with disciple and they listen/obey you. This kid DID NOT! He was an mean kid that talked back and did not listen to a thing his parents said. Their parenting skills were abysmal at best.
Anyway... the day before me and a few fellas went "fishing" You know talking about fish and drinking beer. When we got back it was late. I unloaded the boat and threw all the empty bottles on the back lawn so I could cover the boat. The next day my wife's friend was over and they were going to go shopping but that boy was at the house too. I guess her husband was out and she had no babysitter. Before she even asked I was like, "NO FREAKING WAY am I watching that boy!!!" She begged and pleaded. I finally submitted, after she agreed that I would watch him if I had permission to do as I pleased with him if he "acted up". No big deal deal keep (3) kids busy and running around for a few hours. I can do this, I thought. They ran out of stuff they wanted to do inside in like 30 minutes so I sent them outside to play in the fenced in back yard while I finished cleaning up the kitchen.
Not five minutes later my kids came running in with this shocked look both talking at the same time about how "they did not do it". I said, "Do what?" Hell boy had taken the empty bottles from the yard and smashed them against a rock. The "you just watched him" speech would have to wait. I marched out there and the kid has a bottle in his hand!
I said something like "What in the hell do you think your doing!?! You will be picking up every single piece of glass I see and I will be personally supervising you. Do you understand?"
Hell boy, "NO"
(My children's eyes grow wide)
I said something to the effect of, "I can guarantee you will be picking up glass here shortly."
Then he had the gumption to say, "No I am not. What are you gonna do about it?!"
I said, "I will spank you if I have to. Is that what you want?"
He laughed and pulled down his sweat pants and underwear
(My children gasping in disbelief)
(Hell... I paused in astonishment)
Hell boy said, "Go right ahead" and put his hands on his knees while looking at my kids and laughing
(I gritted my teeth)
(I licked my hand - nice and sloppy)
I gave him one good swat on the ...
He stood up on his tippy toes, speechless, tears running from his eyes
(My kids smirking with the "WTH was he thinking?" faces)
Me, "You want another one or do you want to start picking up glass now?"
He sniffled around picking up glass for a good 20 minutes my kids helping. I never had a "lick" of problem with that kid from that day forward because he knew I was 100% serious about anything I said. But, I was glad when they moved away.
