Smoking can be a very triggering subjects in families. My mother-in-law was treated very poorly by two of her daughters, I have no doubt that their motives were pure, but their delivery was very rude. I don’t think they know to this day how much they truly hurt her feelings when a “please do not smoke in the house” would have done the job just fine.
There is such thing as tact when dealing with family. You have to be careful when dealing with family. I have learned even though I don't smoke and there is no smoking in my home, other people are different. When I go into someone's home that smokes and smokes in the home, I keep my mouth shut because I choose to go into their home. Thanks for your response.
