Do you have a habit that you don't want your kids to pick up?

I occasionally bite or pick my nails. I hate that I do it and I made a New Years Resolutions to stop. It's the only one I'm having a hard time keeping. At this point, I'm about to put fake nails on so I can't bite them, until I break the habit.
I really hope my girls don't pick up on this crappy habit, too.
So far, they both love to paint their nails and I give them manicures and they wear rings to show off their nails. I have to my stop biting my own before they pick it up after me.

Do you have any habits you don't want your kids to have?
Des, wasting time on the internet is fun. I do believe both of my girls have played a game on here today, and that's fine.
:P
This internet stuff is serious business. lol
beetle, congrads on quitting. I'm a closet smoker, my kids don't know. I have a few a day, outside and brush teeth/ spray hair with VS spritz and put lotion on hands before their wise to it. I guess I always thought if they never know- they'll never do it. But.. ahh who knows? Let me add that to my list!
 
Yes. Full time, life time smoker (28 years).

I quit on January 4th. I don't want my son to be a smoker too.
 
My weird restaurant germ things. I can't let silver wear touch the table at the restaurant, or use a straw that doesn't come in a wrapper, and no lemons in my drink. Its really annoying....
I want my kids to have a nice meal w/out worrying about who touched their stuff. Of course i have lots of crazy weird little habits that I wouldn't like to pass on, worrying in general but the tops right now is the germ thing.

ck - i don't know about health nut, I just had some cheetos! Just dirty things. Ewww. Of course I'm also the mom who doesn't like her kids to touch her when they have food on their hands. I don't want to get dirty. lol My poor children.

Mrs cleaver - lol isn't that funny how you can turn it on and off like that! As soon as the kids are in bed or your away from them bam! cursing just flows out of your mouth. guilty as charged on that one too.
 
If that is your worst habit, than I admire you! My resolution is to become more patient.
 
I think mine already picked up mine. or at least my oldest daughter has. I'm a smart a$$. I admit it.
The thing that bothers me the most is that, she's good at too.

I don't really want her to have her dads habit of smoking cigarettes. (Yeah, you heard me J.E.) Or another one of his bad habits of not picking up after himself. Wait a minute, she already has this bad habit of not picking up after herself. Thanks a lot J.E.!!!
I would also say lying. I hate people who lie. I hope that either one of them pick that up.

I also hope they STOP fighting and stop hitting each other.
 
Why don't you try painting your nails with that horrible stuff that tastes revolting? Fake nails is a good idea but they often can get in the way when doing chores or simple tasks even like typing.

My horrible habit is wanting to be in control of everything. I am a control freak :( Also I use the internet way to much.
 
SMOKING!!!!! *trying to quit and it's hard as hell

and doing that kind of growl thing when i get mad! lol, my 3 year old is already doing that!
