[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were on a southwest flight last weekend, and this guy got on who just reeked of pot.  He sat in a row with a new mother who had a newborn, so I’m sure that was great for that baby.[/quote]

What exactly do you think would harm the baby in that situation? [/quote]

Different poster than you quoted

Exposure such as the PP described (smoke clinging to clothes and other surfaces) is known as thirdhand smoke.  There doesn’t seem to be enough research to make definitive conclusions as to how harmful it is, although what we do know about marijuana specifically and about thirdhand tobacco smoke indicates that its effect would be negative.

Neither of these links show evidence that third-hand marijuana smoke is dangerous. If the person with the baby was concerned about the effects on their baby, as many would be, they would have gotten off the plane. As a mom, I would definitely be upset but still willing to pay to switch my ticket to avoid harm to my baby. Wouldn’t you?[/quote]
