Parents ought to be careful
I have noticed that the habit of smoking is increasing substantially. It is not that the adults only smoke, the young boys, especially the teenagers are also smoking significantly. Whenever I go to Gulshan I see that the young boys are smoking in groups on roadsides and in restaurants, even though 'no smoking' is written in those places, creating disturbance to the general people. It is so shocking that 10-12 year-old boys smoke freely in front of elders. So, I would suggest the parents to keep an eye on their children so that they do not smoke and keep themselves away from harmful habits. I also request the government to ban advertisements of cigarettes in public places.
