I had a sibling who was doing those things you mentioned. It really pained my parents. I know my mother cried many times due to to her pain and anguish over that child. No, I think all frum parents who themselves care about yiddishkiet are very deeply pained by their children not going in the Torah way. I would assume that if you do these things and don’t come from a “modern” family then this causes your parents lots of pain and can really affect Shalom Bayis. That’s not the main reason you should stop but it should be a motivator to get back on track. Ifa child truly took to heart how much hakaras hatov they owe their parents for EVERYTHING that the parents gave and continue to give them from the second they were born then we would have a lot less kids straying from the path. (Not taking into account kids who were abused and molested or what not, just regular kids giving in to their curiosity and yetzer hora to taste the forbidden fruit.)
