I smoke, drink and keep guns. My kids live with thier mother over 500 miles away. I look forward to going out with my oldest and having a beer with him soon, but he's not likely to be a drinker like me and I would bet that none of my kids will ever smoke cigs either. I think there's something to be said about learning from the piss poor example of your parents. I did try to ban smoking from the house when I shared the aboad but the focus would easily be turned to my drinking. So I freed myself, not to say that I would have died but we were killing each other slowly.
