17, not normally but the garden is cool. If it's raining/they're in the garden I can smoke out of my bedroom window.

I can at one and not at the other since I was 17.

I hope peoples parents don't! Smoking really is a disgusting habit (it harms yourself, those around you and pollutes our sky's). There's a thread up at the moment about a boy who is 11 and has started smoking. I thought people just didn't really do it anymore...at least among our generation.

Statistics show that its actually increased, ESPECIALLY among our generation.

My mum doesn't let ANYONE smoke in our house. Which is just fine for me because I find smoking vile. When I'm a home owner I'll be taking the exact same approach, no one smokes in the house - back garden is acceptable with the back door shut, but that's it.

My parents don't really get a lot of insight into my personal life. When I was away at school and university, I did it - then when I came home, I confined it to my bedroom. I was already a confirmed, albeit light, smoker - I didn't particularly want to 'come out'. So they don't know, or if they do they've never addressed it.

My father smokes a pipe in some parts of the house.

Quite the lower middle class shibboleth really.

I usually smoke in my room with the window open, I can't stand walking into my room and it reeking of smoke. Probably be the same when I have my own place, smoke out of the window.

Hopefully I won't still be smoking.

Both grandfathers died of lung cancer and they hate the smell of smoke which gets everywhere, so they wouldn't let me smoke in the house. (I don't smoke anyway, no loss. :P)

When not at university I only stay at my mother's and she smokes. She's not a hypocrite so she's quite happy for me to spark-up (though not with rolling cigarettes as they really stink). I suspect if I were to stay at my dad's I'd be confined to the garden.

Reply 15

Yep. Both my mum and dad smoke anyway.

"pollutes our sky's" hahahah

get a grip. if you smoke away from non-smokers, you're only harming yourself. and i'll be damned if you're gonna try to tell me i can't do what i want with my own body.

I wish my parents were like this. I can't stand the smell of cigs and they both smoke inside the house. I especially hate it when my mum wonders into my room with a lit cig :sadnod:

Unfortunately a lot of folk our age who don't smoke are militant and obnoxious about it. They've lapped up the government funded adverts and personal education videos chastising smokers but are quite amusingly proponents of 'tolerance and diversity' in most other areas. Absolute cretins.
