Today, I caught my teenage daughter smoking, and tried calmly explaining to her that it's quite bad for her health. She replied with, "It doesn't harm you if you're under 20." FML

Some earlier education would have been a good idea then, my parents talked to me about smoking when I was 9. I've been known to fall for stupid things now and again, but if someone offered me a smoke and said I'd be fine because I was under 20 I'd tell them they're an imbecile!

And then you smacked her for being an idiot, right?

Sounds like she's been drinking too.

Her stupidity will harm her more than her smoking....

73 - Your form of relaxing was ingesting a stimulant (nicotine) which increases heart rate, blood pressure and stress levels? No, what you felt as "relaxing" was actually just relieving the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.
