Most of it, yes, but there's still a very large increase in particles in the air, far more than when smoking.

My parent was saying "given the health effects, you should not smoke in front of your children". I was asking how they squared this with an activity with much larger health effects that I suspect they think is fine to do with your kids.

Particulate count is the least of your worries when it comes to cigarette smoke. The tar, acetone, cadmium, carbon monoxide, etc etc etc is going to do a lot more damage.

Do you have any evidence that indoor wood fires are more damaging that cigarette smoke?
