Authoritarianism is when tobacco companies can't shove cigarettes down my kids neck.

It's not shoving down their neck if they're educated about the danger and choose to do it anyway. That's called free will. Your job isn't to sculpt or control your kids (bc that doesn't ever work), your job is just to show them the ropes and hope they don't fall down too much/too badly.
