"Just because someone smokes are you implying they are setting a bad example?"

If you don't like it implied, I'm happy to state it for you: Smoking sets a bad example for kids. And in case you haven't grasped where I'm coming from, it is the smokers whose arrogance is unbelievable to me.

My middle aged sons and daughters,and their spouses,all non-smokers, would take umbrage with your arrogant,self satisfied attitude,implying that I have set a bad example with my smoking.

A little more living and experience will teach you a lot,young one.
