Could The Secondary Inhalation Of Cannabis By 15 Month Old Be A Matter Of Concern?

Hi. I m a 20 year old mother to a 15month baby girl. I ve smoked cannabis pretty much every day for the last 4years. I can t seem to stop. I suffered with depression for the last 2years which makes all this that bit harder. I don t want my doing harming my daughters development in any way may it be now or in 10 years. So I was wondering what second hand cannabis smoke ( if she inhaled it at any point ) could do to her??? Please don t think that I sit in the same room as her as its being smoked because that s not the case. Its always in a completly separate room to her but I only have a small one bed flat so it stays around no matter how hard I try to get rid of it. Please help me.

yeah.. passive smoking is also equally dangerous when compared with active smoking.. even though you may smoke in different room ,you baby is at a high risk of respiratory infections and respiratory diseases.
