[quote=Anonymous]Smoking = smoking. Whereas drinking =/= getting drunk. Also, in the big picture, it is not people's obligation to behave such that my children will never see people doing things that I don't want them to see. If I don't want my children to see people being drunk (which, I don't), then I don't take them places where people are likely to be drunk. And, when they nonetheless occasionally do see people being drunk, I say, "When people are drunk, they do stupid things that they would not do if they were sober. This is why I don't like to get drunk, and why I hope that you will also choose not to get drunk, when you get older." What I don't do is say, "Hey, world! You need to stop getting drunk because I don't want my children to see it!"[/quote]
