Can Smoke Fumes Cause Sickness In A 7 Years Old Child?
I have beautiful stepdaughters. Their father and I have custody and we do not smoke. They stay with their mother everyother weekend and sometimes a day through the week. The 7 year old the last few time being with her has been vomiting. Her younger sister 6 has done the same. When they are with their mother they stay in a very small appartment with several aunts and ucles whom all smoke. At any given time at least 4-7 adults smoking in the house around them. Could this be why they are getting sick when they are with her?

Smoking does not cause vomiting unless they themselves smoke...but passive smoking has health hazards...it causes wheezing, bronchial asthma ,risk for lung cancer...they should avoid it..
