Smoking Toddler...Really???

Honestly, this story infuriates me. This is a two year old who throws a fit if he isn't given a cigarette. The story makes me sick to my stomach. There isn't anyone to blame but the parents here. This child is two! He has no clue it's wrong for him to be doing that because someone must have showed him it was OK. Think about it, how would a toddler know to pick up a cigarette and put it to his mouth, then figuring out how to spark the lighter? He wouldn't know how, someone had to have taught him that. Also, he shouldn't have to go into rehab for smoking. Just take away the smokes. Stop giving him them and just deal with the screaming. He'll eventually quit screaming for more. This is big time child neglect. What kind of parent would allow their child to smoke?? Apparently a parent who wants their child to die at a very young age. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvI157l09xE&feature=related
