how many babies are there smoking and drinking alcohol?

Babies are around second hand smoke and it was relatively common for very young children to be given cigarettes to curb appetite if no food was available.

I'm not sure if that happened here but these are a few reasons you might see an impact on children.

It used to be common to give babies a tiny amount of brandy to sooth them. Second hand smoke is a thing.
