martinbishop71@btinternet.com	no always find a room u dont use very often like shed Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Moxie1313	Yes. I do think that you should talk to him and try to get him to smoke outside. Mention that you have been having health problems - maybe have your doctor write him an informative letter? If he has a major problem being forced to smoke outside - maybe compromise - limit him to one room of the house only. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Barking mad	I gave up smoking 2 years ago, my wife still smokes. I put an extractor fan in the kitchen + a portable tv, so every so often she goes there and has a cigarette. She does this now especially since I decorated and got rid of the brown tinted wallpaper and ceilings. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

garyomega	I suggest you take a look at the truth about the so called 'second hand smoke' hysteria that has no real basis in fact. http://www.forces.org/evidence/files/pas-smok.htm Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mk	definately, you should't have to suffer for his bad habit. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

The BudMiester	Get him a chimney to transplant onto his head! Or develop a taste for Garlic. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sylvsuchall	Give him a separate room to smoke in problem solved ? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

cool runings	Tell him to stop or go and smoke outside and he will, most smokers i know always listen to peoples sugestions. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

.	If you ask him he should agree. To be fair you took him for what he was twenty years earlier. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Kris	He has done this for 20 years, and you are just now complaining about it? How bad is your chest? Does he know how you feel? You may want to talk to him about it, instead of posting your question on the internet. What would be the big problems if you asked him to smoke outside? You have more problems than his smoking in the house. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

675	Yes, insist. Say that there will be bigger problems than him throwing a wobbly about you doing because it is now illegal to smoke in public places where other people can inhale secondary smoke. Also, his kids may sue him in the future for any breathing complications they may develop, or even for taking up smoking, too! If you aren't too confident, at least confine it to the kitchen with a door/window open and the kitchen door firmly shut. (This is your best bet, then when he's gotten used to that, your next move would be to get him to smoke outside.... ;-)) If he loves you and the kids, he will do it for you. If he doesn't he loves himself more. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Honeybun	You will have bigger problems if you let him carry on smoking indoors !! Is he that stupid that he doesn't know it will jeopardise your health ? - he sounds a really selfish husband to me. If he won't stop, find yourself a nice kind understanding bloke who doesn't smoke and will probably smell so much sweeter too. Good luck ! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

this_is_ska_wars	YES! if he has any sense he should have done from the start. Your health is more important than him being warm for 5mins whilst he has a ciggy. Big problems like what? he'd get annoyed? It's your health or his comfort at the end of the day. I think your health beats all. I hope your chest improves :-) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Lawyer	He should not smoke in the house if you have problems such as bad chest. I am a smoker,my hubby quit and I stopped smoking near him or my son.I smoke outside Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

David W	You should ask him to rub your chest better after every cigarette! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bioethics@sbcglobal.net	Are you kidding me!? There should be a big problem if he doesn't.!Maybe you should be very angry and concerned that your husband who is supposed to love you, is not concerned about your lung problems and doesnt care enough if you are suffering. What a ,.'#@*/!!!! Put your foot down for your childrens health sake if not for your own and kick his BUTTS outside! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lover of Jehovah and Jesus	tell your husband he better stop smoking that trash. if he loves you and the children he will stop. second hand smoke is like smoking that trash. if he does not stop than make him leave. your health is more important than that trash and so is your children. also learn to spell Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bigonegrande	He just want you dead. He does NOT love you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

inverclydeasthmacare	i think you should especially if you have a bad chest as this can cause serious problems i have the same problem with my old man andy inverclyde asthmatic caring group Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

illumi_1983	You know the answer yourself! Don`t be stupid! passive smoking causes cancer! Why did you let him smoke around your kids at all! I would kick him outside the door! My childrens lives would be more important than what he wants! There will be bigger problems when you and your kids end up in hospital for chemotherapie! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sugar	YES!!!! I am a smoker and my wife isn't (she's just nuts). I never smoke in the house since she started to cough and complain of a bad chest. These problems can be overcome, as they did between us, by talking - if he loves you, he will accept the idea of smoking in a given place away from you (even if it means hanging out of a small window last thing at night!!). Good luck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

rocker	I was a smoker just 4 months ago. My kids asked that for their birthday can i go outside to smoke I felt bad and did then i became a nonsmoker because i didn't like going outside every time i wanted to smoke. it came the point where i was smoking a Lot less then i quit. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lilac3377	My kids have asthma so no one smokes in my house. This may be a difficult rule to implement. If he truly cares for you he would not smoke near you. Hopefully he's a reasonable person that you can convince to stop poisoning you. If not, is he worth your health? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

fem22	there shouldnt be a problem, he should care about your health too Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

book	Yes your husband should stop smoking around you. If not then he is really selfish to put his smoking before you. Maybe you could get him a shed to smoke in then he wont be able to complain when its cold. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

FaerieWhings	If he loves and respects you he should do it voluntarily. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

native,pride	he only cares about himself go see a lawyer and kick him out Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

amylr620	Yeah I would. If he loves you he would knowing your health problem. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

pat e	My sister smoked in the house her husband died of lung cancer think about it Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Ian s	as a smoker i can understand why he might be upset at you if you asked that... on the other hand, i have lived in my house for 11 years and have only smoked about 5 ciggies in doors... out of RESPECT for my wife, and now 2 children, i smoke outside. (MY DECISION) if its raining i stand in the shed. i have an area for the butts, which i clear regularly and as far as i know i do not upset anyone with this habit. mind you my wife still moans about my 'cologne' when i go to bed. explain the situation to him and ask for a bit of compromise. he is only human after all, he might even respect you for asking. good luck.
