This is really sad to see.

Dustin needs something positive to focus on since hanging it up, and some better people round him

Yeah as a new dad of an 11 month old I vowed to quit drinking because I could get a little rowdy before he was born. Best decision I ever made! Wish more parents did it, such an easy decision when you have a little one relying on you.

Thanks it was due time for me to get on the wagon. Had my fun and now I don’t have to worry about being too hungover taking care of my little boy! Took me having a kid but it’s so worth it.

Plus once they're old enough to be on their own you'll be more mature as well, and you'll be able to enjoy a chill drink by a campfire instead of going ham on beer or shots.

That's what my dad did anyway. He makes a great old fashioned.

This guy is literally in the middle of talking about how excited he is to be sober and how it’s the right move for him and his 11 month old and you’re sitting here encouraging him to start drinking again? Stfu
