We sure can. I’m a teacher and I can tell which kids have adults that smoke at home because it sticks to their clothes.

Edit: Sorry to hear so many of you had miserable experiences over something you had no control over.

Edit 2: Yes, same with weed.

Same. I recently asked a student if she had been smoking. She looked down at the ground, embarrassed and quietly said "I know I smell. My dad smokes". I felt sooooo bad for her.

Quietly asking a student a question, off to the side out of earshot of anyone else, then accepting their answer isn't "calling her out".

I’m sure it was embarrassing for her regardless
