Comment: It's nice to see this study getting more and more publicity. It gives those who react to these products a basis for requesting their use be limited, replaced, discontinued, or applied when others are not present. I hope this will come in handy if anyone needs support for a request for accomodation at work, school, or church..
Chemicals found in household cleaning products cause asthma in children, finds study

Expectant mothers who use a lot of household cleaning products may increase the risk of their child developing asthma, claim researchers. They found a link between high exposure to everyday products such as bleach and air freshener in women during pregnancy, or shortly after birth, and wheezing and asthma in their young children. Children exposed to these products had up to a 41 per cent increase in the risk of persistent wheezing by the age of seven, and had slightly lower than normal lung function.
