Kids see you when you're drinking

I remember my dad always used to say "Do as I say, not as I do!" but obvious hypocrisy isn't very clever. If you tell a kid they shouldn't drink too much then go and get wasted in front of them what do you think they're going to do?

Dad came out of World War II an alcoholic. I did not think any less of him for it. He was a good man, sober or drunk.
