It sounds like your son is allergic to tobacco smoke. Those allergic to it are more prone to developing asthma from it. Take it seriously, it represents a threat to his health.

Start WW3 if you have to.

Definitely stand by your son, mredskins.

Schneed, you mentioned being allergic to smoke...it's my ONLY allergy.

My throat starts to burn and I get nauseous. Once in a bar/dance club in college, that was VERY smoky...I had to go to the restroom to puke three times. Didn't go back obviously.

I have NO other allergies that I know of, but this is not a fun one. Sometimes when a stinky smoker gets out of an elevator and I use it afterward, my throat starts to get sore...don't even have to be around "live" smoke.


So stick up for the kid and if they won't be considerate enough to put their selfish habits aside when he's around...they're choosing cigs over your son and it's their loss.

But if he does have an allergy, you may just have to make their house off-limits completely, because if they stink, their house will....even if they always smoke outside. If his health is being affected by them...TELL THEM and don't worry about their reaction.

Is your wife on your side? If not, get her on it before you bring it up with her mother...you may need the backup.
