Smoking.

I'm seriously tired of everyone smoking in front of me. Like, can you please take into consideration I'm pregnant? My fiance's dad and my mom both smoke. Honestly, I CANNOT stand it. I've never liked it. I've tried so hard to get my mom to quit just because of her health but no matter what I'd do, it'd never work. Eventually, I gave up and was like "whatever, it's your decision." Anyways, I just wish they'd take into consideration that I'm PREGNANT. Ugh. I've told them both my kid won't be around it. I don't want to hold my child from neither one of them but I won't tolerate my kid being around it. Am I being rude or?

I can't stand the smell of it. They both don't smoke in front of me but I can smell it on them or in their house. I just can't stand it. My mom's a ***** so if I tell her to please not smoke around me, she'll be like "it's my house. If you don't like it, leave." Or "I've been doing this for almost 30 years. What makes you think I'm gonna change now? Get over it!" I get so aggravated.

I work in home care and the lady I care for smokes repeatedly. One cig lit in the ashtray and one in her mouth. Im.5 weeks tomorrow but I'm seriously considering asking my job to switch my case because it's really unbearable.

My mother in law and brother in law smoke cigs and they dont smoke it in the house when I'm there but they come inside and they stink soo bad!! I hint at them "eww you guys stink", thinking that they would wash their hands or put some body spray on but they just don't care.  I dunno what id do if they actually smoked in the same room as me though. . I'd probably puke.
