A person's respiratory rate changes with age and physical condition. A baby, (0 - 12months), has a respiratory rate of 25 - 30 breaths per minute, a child, (1 - 10yrs), 20 - 25 bpm and an adult has a rate between 12 and 20 bpm. A person with a good physical condition would breath slower than an unfit person. A sickness or disease like asthma, tuberculosis, emphysema, would elevate the respiratory rate.

What could happen to your child from you smoking around a child?
Smoke in the environment of a child can cause respiratory infections, such as throat, ear, sinus, bronchial and lung infections. It also can cause allergy symptoms of the nose and sinuses and asthma from bronchial irritation. Chronic exposure over a long period could predispose that child to develop lung cancer later in life, or other cancers, mostly of the respiratory system. It may also decrease the child's appetite and hinder weight gain and development.

What is the normal respiratory rate for an child and what will be the first sign of respiratory distress?
Children have different breathing rates. I assume you're asking about resting breathing rate, so this is what I'll discuss. If the child is overweight or obese, the child's breathing rate will be faster and deeper in order to get a sufficient amount of oxygen to the body. If the child is asthmatic, or has a respiratory illness, they too may have deeper breathing at rest. Respiratory distress as you call it may be the child looking pale. They may struggle to breath (wheezing), or breath too often sharply (hyperventilation). You should tell a child who's having breathing difficulty to breathe at you're rate. If they look faint etc, call an ambulance immediately, and prepare to give emergency first aid if they fall unconscious( hypothetically speaking of course). If you believe your child has respiratory issues, see your local Doctor or GP.
