palves Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 is 10 and in 4th grade. I guess the fear of smoking has been put into him by my dad's LC. This week my son's class is running mock elections. He is running for General Assembly. Anyhow he has to have a platofrm and some associated issues. Here is the header he choose If you don't want to choke Help stop the smoke. He is going to talk to his class about the statistics about smoking. I hope that this really helps put stuff in perspective for these young kids. I'm proud of him for choosing such a subject and taking all of this so seriously. Just wanted to share.

Justakid Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 That's great! Even if one child's life is changed then it's all worth it. Pat your son on the back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donna G Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 You should be so proud of your son! This sadly is the age when kids need to learn about the risks of smoking for soon peer presure of the wrong kind will get to them.
