to be annoyed that DD age 5 was 'taught' about smoking at school ?

[IcantbelieveImForty]

DD1 came home yesterday & told DH that a supply teacher told them how smoking will make their lungs sticky & if they have another one it will kill them. Then, it's ok to try it, but if you like it you mustn't have another one (cross face)

It's healthy eating week - but since when are cigarettes food ?

I'm very annoyed because I think the convesation that went on will draw her attention to smokers...in fact I know it will.

The curriculum has keeping healthy as a topic and smoking is discussed as being unhealthy. I would expect that OP got a garbled, out of context message-I would bet that the teacher was answering a specific question asked by a DC.

yabu to take at face value everything your d age 5 reports as having been said by the teacher.

And if the teacher said exactly all that , your are still being unreasonable
