"Save the Babies"


CTV News reports:
"The effects of smoking on children might be apparent even before birth, a new study has found.
Researchers in the U.K. have found noticeable differences in the facial movements of unborn babies whose mothers smoke during pregnancy.

The study, published in the journal Acta Paediatrica by researchers from Durham and Lancaster universities, looked at ultrasound images of four fetuses whose mothers smoked an average of 14 cigarettes per day. Researchers found an increase in mouth movements compared to 16 other fetuses with non-smoking mothers."

"Oh what a shame, such a bad way to live
All who is to blame, we can't stop livin'
Live, live for life
But let live everybody
Live life for the children
Oh, for the children
You see, let's save the children
Let's save all the children
Save the babies, save the babies."

.... Save the Children, lyrics by Marvin Gaye
