When we live in sin, we don't always see the bad changes occur right away.
We slip into the world slowly - and it is a slow fade. A person who is drinking, or committing adultry, or starting to do drugs, doesn't lose everything in the blink of an eye (right away). Slowly, things will pass away from them. This is why we need to be careful, to remember that the choices we make can and many times, WILL, have lasting (often lifetime) effects/consequences.
Little children, and those around us, watch, and often suffer, from these bad choices that we make.
