You might remember the "Smoking Baby" article we posted here in the spring. We reported that an Indonesian 2 year old baby was allegedly smoking up to 40 cigarettes a day. His parent's complained that he would throw a fit if he didn't get his nicotine fix and so let him smoke as much as he wanted.
The amount of press and YouTube hits this story got around the world was too embarrassing for the Indonesian government, and so they took the baby from his parents and placed him in a rehab center for 30 days to ween him off the cigarettes. He is now out and back with his parents, and supposedly he has kicked the habit.
Some testing was done on the baby to find out if there were any health implications and it seems like they found that his brain was smaller than it should be. Let's hope he stays nicotine free!
