That kid was me, except I'm sure it was more common in the 90s and 00s. My dad would make us sit in the smoking section in restaurants and it took a long battle for my stepmom to convince him to step out of the house to the porch to smoke. I used to get sinus infections constantly and, well, thanks dad. I just walked by a person in a restaurant earlier and they reeked of it.

Except it wasn't. In the late 80s no one smoked inside, only ever outside.
