This is entirely anecdotal. I could have said that 21 of my 23 nieces and nephews were raised in smoking households and not one of them has any condition that could be construed as being caused by secondhand smoke. Neither do the spouses or the smokers themselves for that matter, some of whom are now in their mid 70s.
I could have - but I didn't. Because it's anecdotal and nothing more.
