It Doesn't Effect My Baby

About

It Doesn't Effect My Baby refers to an exploitable two-panel image of a pregnant woman holding a cigarette and wine. That image is captioned "No, it doesn't effect my baby." The next panel shows a child in front of a computer doing something the poster doesn't approve of labeled "12 years later," implying that the child mother's smoking and drinking during pregnancy led to a brain-damaged child.
