A 2 year old baby who's smoking is in the news. The baby is from Indonesia. According to the news, he can consumed two packs a day and would get mad if they will try to stop him from smoking to the extent of banging his head to the wall. The baby started to smoke at the age of 18 months old.
Hearing news like this troubled me so much. Especially that I am already a parent, i can never help myself but be angry, outraged to the parent of this kid. How could they? Why do they allowed, much worst influenced their baby to smoke at a tender age of 18 months. At that age, the baby can barely talk , can barely walk but already influenced by bad vices. Parents are there to take care and to protect their baby from the harsh realities in life not to pushed them to the perils of this world.
Hopefully, the Indonesian government will take this issue seriously and for the Philippine government, hopefully this will be a warning sign, a reminder to do their job to protect ... what Dr. Jose Rizal considers as the HOPE of our motherland.
