A two year-old Indonesian toddler hooked on ciggarrettes has reportedly kicked the habit.

The child became known worldwide when his mother, who said she was powerless to deny him his habit, sought help for her baby.

The AFP reports that the secretary-general of the Indonesian national commission for child protection said the child “received psychosocial therapy for one month, during which therapists kept him busy with activities and encouraged him to play with kids of the same age.”

“We diverted his addiction from cigarettes to playing,” the Secretary added.
