 Hi there, this is James Swanik and you're listening to the Alcohol Free Lifestyle podcast where you learn how to take back control over alcohol and live a life of health, wealth, love and happiness. You are already corrupting your kids with every single drink that you take. Your kids are watching you, they're watching your drinking habits every single night. And now you are setting them upon a path of drinking in their later years as well. If you want to be the best role model that you can be to your kids, then you will eliminate drinking. It is a poison and it is a toxin and it is corrupting their minds. Kids watch us, they study us and then they follow us. I'm James Swanik from the Alcohol Freedom Formula, there's some free stuff for you down below to get started so you can reduce or quit alcohol. Your kids are watching you every single day and every single night, they are mimicking your actions and even though you say to them you can drink when you're older or that's 10 years away, well when 10 years away comes and it arrives, they're just going to follow dad's footsteps, they're going to follow mum's footsteps. Are you being the best role model for your children? Are you being the best role model that you can be? Because you may only be having a drink or two every night, that's all it is, you might not even be getting drunk, but they are seeing that and if you already feel awful about your drinking and you want to quit and you want to reduce and you haven't been able to, then why are you now setting that example for your children? Because now they are going to have a life where they are going to want to reduce or quit and not be able to. They are watching you all the time and if you want to be the best role model for them, the best role model is someone who is clear in thought and energy and happy and joyful and if you're none of those things because of your drinking, then you'd better do something to get that way or your children for the rest of their life are going to be stuck just like you are stuck right now. This is tough love right now. Your kids are watching you, it doesn't matter whether they are 4 years old, 2 years old, 14, 17, they are watching you. You are grooming them for a life of toxins, for a life of attractively packaged poison. They are following in your footsteps, do something about it, quit alcohol, reduce alcohol, change your relationship with alcohol because your children's relationship with alcohol is going to be just like yours, possibly worse. But do it now because you are already indoctrinating them into the idea that having a glass of wine or a beer at the end of the day is okay, it's just normal, it's what people do. Society has drilled it into us that alcohol is the norm and that's just what you do. But deep down you know that it's not serving you because why are you even watching me right now? If you're still watching me right now on this very video then chances are what I'm saying makes sense to you. You're not happy with your drinking, otherwise you wouldn't be watching this, you'd just be switching it off and watching something else. So deep down you know that your drinking is not serving you and your kids are watching it not serve you. Your kids are watching you be tired and lethargic and not be present, all they want is your presence, they want your attention, are you giving it to them or are you staying foggy and distracted and not present and being irritable? They're seeing you, they're studying you, they're watching you. Change your relationship with alcohol and your kids' relationship with alcohol will change as well. Go ahead and post a comment down below, let me know what you think about this and share it with people, like it.
