I have a young son age 7 and daughter 4...They think the cigars stink which I actually prefer. My father use to smoke cigarettes...4 packs of non filter Pall Malls a day! He smoked in the house, in the car, at any resturaunt, anywhere...it was like I couldn't get a breath of fresh air. The worst was almost every year we would pile in the old station wagon (70's and 80's every family had a wagon)and drive from Ohio to Florida for vacation....all the way there with the windows up and the AC on...my father literally would get the cigarette down to almost burning his lips and immediately lite up another off that! Probably took 10 years off my life. Both my brothers and sister would smoke in the house along with my dad. I can't believe that at about 16 I started to sneek his pall malls and smoke them...did that on and off until I smoked my first good cigar. I can't believe they call that stuff in cigarettes tobacco....bummed a camel off a buddy a few months ago and couldn't even finish it...tasted so nasty. I love my cigars but I hope my kids stay off of them until they are much older...my stash is locked!
