TIANJIN, China (UPI) – The parents of a 2-year-old in China who smokes at least a pack of cigarettes a day say they are seeking advice to help the toddler quit.

Toddler Tong Liangliang of Tianjin, China, was allowed to begin smoking by his father more than a year ago to help control pain from a hernia with which he was born, but his parents say the toddler’s habit has gotten out of control, China Radio International reported Tuesday.

The boy’s father said he made the decision because the toddler is too young to have an operation to correct the hernia.

However, the parents told the Bohai Morning Post Liangliang’s habit has gotten out of control and they are seeking methods of helping the toddler quit.
