Officials says Indonesian boy who smokes about 40-cigarettes a day will have a specialist treatment next week to wean him off his bad habit. This is a very great news this Monday morning. Thank God. http://ph.news.yahoo.com/afp/20100604/tap-health-indonesia-smoking-children-aeccaac.html

Haven't hear from China. I don't know if they do something about this. I hope Philippine Government will do something like this too. It's so sad that few groups/individuals are working hard to help this children and revive their life, while parents of this child is lacking of caring and responsibility for their children.

Wow! This is really a good news for that toddler. It is so bad that a kid is smoking so badly like an adult. I hope he will be able to quit his smoking habits. I myself do not like smoker.

This is really good news. It was really disturbing to see a child smoker. I couldn't believe that a parent can tolerate such bad habit of their kid. I really hope that he can quit smoking soon.

I just hope it works. It was really shocking to see the kid smoking. He was smoking it with such an ease that it was a lollipop for him! It was really sad seeing the kid like that! I think smoking has already affected his health, he is obese. Poor boy :(

It will work, he still a kid. They all just want toys. Toys and foods can help him forget his bad habit.
