A Nicotine No-No! Still-Breastfeeding Jenelle Evans Admits To Smoking Cigarettes
Sep. 23 2014, Published 11:37 a.m. ET
Jenelle Evans' parenting style has raised eyebrows again.
The Teen Mom 2 star raised the ire of her Twitter followers and others when she admitted she hasn't stopped puffing on cigarettes — despite the fact that she's currently breastfeeding her 2-month-old son, Kaiser.
The 22-year-old tweeted an image of her boyfriend Nathan Griffith, Kaiser's father, passed out on a La-Z-Boy recliner -- but what many noticed, instead, was the pack of cigarettes on the floor.
The North Carolina native later confirmed that she hasn't been able to kick the habit, tweeting, "I'm outside right now smoking a cig lol" — a fact a number of her followers took umbrage with, as the nicotine she's ingesting is not in the best interest of the infant she's breastfeeding, according to multiple studies.
