Do you remember in 2010, this boy became a viral because of an awful habit he learned during such a young age.
Many netizens feel outraged by seeing this boy who smokes cigarettes. They couldn’t believe that a young boy who could barely speak had already begun this awful habit.
Ardi a year and six months old, started smoking when his father Muhammad introduced him to the unhealthy habit. His mother even said that if he doesn’t smoke, he will get angry and screams and batters his head against the wall. He would then claimed that he felt dizzy and sick.
Ardi’s viral story prompted their local government to send him to a rehab facility at the age of five. The facility helped him quit his unhealthy habit after 30 days of treatment. However, Ardi replaced his cigarette addiction to eating junk food (another unhealthy diet)
It was Dr Kak Seto who taught Ardi’s mother how to make her son occupied with other things that could make his mind busy and off to smoking. The doctor also made her realized that Ardi should be playing toys or with other children at his age.
In 2013 Ardi’s Mom said, “There are many people still offering Ardi cigarettes, but Ardi says no. He says: ‘I love Kak Seto’. He would be sad if I started smoking again and made myself ill.”
“At first when we were weaning Ardi off the cigarettes, he would have terrible tantrums and I would call Dr Seto for help. But now he doesn’t want them.”
As you could see in the images Ardi is currently at a manageable weight.
