Frightening News

Listening to the radio on the way to work this morning, and catching the news story on the BBC online this lunchtime. Claims that pregnant teenagers smoke to try to reduce the size of their babies, and make delivery less painful :-O

I must admit I'd thought I was hearing things this morning, and the news story was a prank. Frightening to think that some people have this idea, and are willing to put the life of an unborn baby at risk based on an "Old Wife's Tale" they've heard down the pub.

Next thing you know people will be claiming you can save money flying abroad by drinking Red Bull.
