AIBU: smoking in the shed?

Hello all! Just wondering if my SIL is BU asking my partner and I to 'smoke outside in the shed' in our garden from the moment her baby is born? She feels the smoke 'will permeate' our 'soft furnishings' in our home, and as such, the smoking ban and shed rule would apply at all times, not just when she and the baby visit...... AIBU to expect to smoke in my own home when they're not there, and not feel like the worst Aunt ever? I'm more than happy to be banished to the garden when they do visit, of course, but the rest of the time....? Hmm! Any thoughts appreciated! :)

It does depend whether she is only objecting to the actual danger from the second hand smoke or the smell from it as well.

If it's the latter then it doesn't matter what you do or where you meet, the smell will be on your clothes.

Regardless, I can (now) see she has a valid point. kills me to admit itEven if we're never going to see eye-to-eye, one thinks one should really get over oneself, and Man the F*ck Up haha, so I can be involved with the new baba. That's the most important thing in the end, eh? Oh god I sound like Jeremy Kyle!!!
