What "bad habit" or addiction do you hide from your kids?

Anonymous
I eat kettle potato chips every night before dinner. It's just a handful, and I've been at my "happy weight" for quite a while now, but it's not a habit I want my kids to see (and pick up from me). But I realized I'm addicted! I guess I smoke the occasional cig (a few times/year), too. I probably have others if I think about it, but I'm curious about everyone else...

God, what a horrible person you are! Shame on you.

sometimes I use some drugs with DH when we party hard...like once a month, maybe.

If I'm at the grocery store alone I buy a couple of doughnuts to eat on the way home.

Reading DCUM when I am always nagging my kids about "too much screen time." I quickly switch over to my email when they come in the room, but sometimes they catch me.

I don't curse in front of my kids but I do the rest of the time.

I don't know that I hide that much, but we don't watch tv until after our toddler goes to bed; I eat a small dessert tonight (but otherwise we eat very healthy and I am at a healthy weight), and I do crack my knuckles, and my neck, and I hope DD doesn't pick that up!

OP, I share your vice: potato chips! Also sometimes I hide in the pantry and scarf down a handful of chocolate chips. (I know, that's kind of pathetic!)

Sugar. I would die if my kids ate the sugar I do. I think I'm just overtired, which makes me crave it and does nothing to help my willpower.

TV!!!

I grew up watching a ton of it and still have really bad taste in shows (ummm . . . Bachelorette, anyone?)

We have a strict no-TV policy for DD, so I watch my crap after she's in bed.
