What do you think the dangers of secondhand and thirdhand smoke are? The Dangers Children’s lungs are smaller and they breathe faster so breathe in more harmful chemicals. Secondhand smoke can result in slow growth and development of babies during pregnancy. 85% of secondhand smoke is invisible. Pets can develop health problems from breathing in the same way as people do. Secondhand smoke is also referred to as passive smoking. Smoke can linger on surfaces and clothing for more than two hours posing a greater risk for crawling babies.

Children have a higher risk of suffering from “Glue ear” and meningitis. It is harder for a child to leave a room or car than an adult.
