Smoking certainly isn't good, but it also isn't some super-poison like some people like to pretend. Nearly half of US smoked in the 40s and 50s and they had no problem having tons of kids.

My mom's dead from lung cancer, and my dad is basically on palliative care. He's a barely walking billboard for "smoking is bad for you".

Yeah that sucks, but now compare its mortality rate to other substances people get addicted to.
