The latest online sensation: a 2-year-old toddler from Indonesia named Rizal is shown in a video smoking. His dad says the kid is “addicted” to smoking, and causes a tantrum when not given cigarette. On the average, he smokes 40 sticks a day. Yep, 40 STICKS!!! The video has since been a source of a variety of reactions from the online world.

From http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/37358195/ns/health-kids_and_parenting/:

JAKARTA, Indonesia – A video of smoking toddler is sparking outrage on the web. When the clip of 2-year-old Sumatran Ardi Rizal puffing away surfaced on YouTube Wednesday, it spread to online social media like, well, fire. Popular blog Gawker linked to the smoking baby video, calling him “totally cooler than you.” But user Faldo777′s response was the more typical response: “His parents should be jailed …”

In fact, his parents say Rizal throws a tantrum when they refuse to give him a cigarette. His father gave him his first smoke when he was just 18 months old.

The smoking toddler was witnessed by a reporter who recently visited his home in the fishing village of Musi Banyuasin, in Indonesia’s South Sumatra province.

sleeping cinderella

ang sad naman nito. malamang parents niya ang nag-introduce sa kanya ng cigarettes. or perhaps his mom smoked a lot when he was still in his mother’s womb. baka smoking has same effects to that of drugs.
