I think what I meant by the discrimination is very hard to describe. I don't mean just choosing not to use someone because they smoke. I meant it in a way like, if they are very responsible about it, and basically if they hid it so well, that you NEVER would have known, other than one day lets say you saw them outside a mall and they were having a smoke or something. Just hypothetically speaking, if I was a casual smoker, having the odd one if I'm out drinking or something. And you saw that, it wouldn't be fair to pull your child out of care just because. But at the same time, I would never place my child in a dayhome/daycare if I knew that person smokes regularly, in front of children, in the home, etc etc. If they never smelt of it, and I had no idea, and the kids were none the wiser, then it's a different story.
