My partner smokes in the house,what can I do to stop it!

well the only thing i can say tell him its not good for the kids health and you cant satnd it he has two choices smoke outside or dont smoke at all,and if he still does smoke in side scare him a little bit tell him if he dont stop smoking in the house then you and the kids are leaving thats what i would do.

Well, he probably can't smell it. I quit smoking a little over a year ago. I never thought I could smell it. The smoke didn't bother me until about 6 months after I stopped. My husband still smokes and the smell makes me ill...literally. He doesn't smell it though. You may not be able to convince him to stop smoking but if he cares about the children and does not want their health affected by his smoking in the home or car then you should pull up articles and or tapes showing the major affects his smoking can have on your children. If he can't stop smokng inside for their sake - then you may have a bigger problem at hand. When I smoked, my children knew - but I did it outside. I never ever smoked in my home or in my car with them. To this day - my husband bares the winters on the porch when he wants to light up. I want him to stop smoking period but it becomes a HUGE arguement. "I'll do it when I'm ready" he says. Whatever. But he knows its one thing to harm himself - but to harm children is another. I wish you the best!!

When one smokes in the house, doesn't matter what room it is in your heating and cooling system will send smoke into every room.... I am a smoker, and I can very rarely smell the smoke, but say I have been driving for a while with the kids in the car, and we pull over. If my hubby lights a smoke before me, I can smell it. Every time your partner lights up in the house he is expose you all to toxins from second hand smoke. He is exposing you all to cancer, basically. While smokers have a high rate of cancer, so do those who live with them because of the second hand smoke. You say you have a little one on the way. Have your partner go to the doc appointment with you and flat out ask your doc if second hand smoke will harm you our the baby. The doc will tell you second hand smoke is worse for you than if you were smoking yourself. And the worst part is that the unborn baby is getting that second hand smoke from your blood. Tell your partner that his choices are to smoke outside or to quit... And those are the only choices, unless he wants to move out...
