A toddler in Indonesia is hooked on nicotine after being introduced to cigarettes by his father.



What do you think about this story?

I doubt it, but does anyone support the father or the child in this? If so, why?

This is old news and apparently it was a hoax:

Last year, a viral video was circulating with a Indonesian baby smoking about 2 packs a day. The toddler on Sumatra was apparently hooked on nicotine after being introduced to cigarettes. The show “Vanguard” located the infamous “Smoking Baby” Aldi. With the help of the Indonesian government, the kid is now a 2-year-old ex-smoker. He now says ‘Don’t smoke’. In a tiny village with no internet access, Aldi’s mother explains how she craved cigarettes while she was pregnant. A hundred yards away from the family’s home, a small shop sells cigarettes – including Sampoerna Mild, Aldi’s brand of choice, made by Philip Morris. The company that brought you the Malboro man also helped create the image of a kid smoking cigarettes.
