Do you guys think the these addicted gamblers will think about their family members before gambling all their money?
obviously no! most gamblers addict are divorced,broke or owe a lot of debt.
gambling is like a drug you cant say no easily.
My father is a problematic gambler. He isn't divorced but has a lot of debt. He still loves us though his gambling habits are destroying our family. I agree that most of the time, gambling leaves out families broken and partners separated. The only good thing is that he still doesn't leave his family alone.
Most addictions don't make the person hate the family they are with. Most are caused by tons of other reasons. Most people who are addicted still love their family but have an illness.
