I meant "some parents" in general terms because some parents, it is patently obvious, do not look after their children's welfare. They frequently figure in newspaper headlines. As far passive smoking goes, I'm asking for proof that it is a cause of lung cancer. Wouldn't we see many more cases of lung cancer amongst bar staff and spouses of smokers if so?

A quick question,with respect, do you smoke?
No. Never saw the attraction. Health risks, cost, ashtray breath, etc, all put me off.
