This was the discussion topic we were having last night, a bunch of gambling friends and one of them an expecting dad. There were counter arguments that his child also would turn out a gambler like he is.
The arguments were that it is his in his gene and that'll pass on to his child, since every one in his family was a gambler.
The counter argument was that the child would make a logical decision and genes won't play any part in this.
Which brought us to another important question what if turns out a gambler would they both play together. Would he be comfortable?
Amid this he walked out and texted me he didn't wish to gamble anymore, so wanted your views on this.
Gambling does not come in your genes or anything like that, however kids have a tendency to imitate what they see in their parents, if a parent drinks or smokes the possibilities the child does the same in the future go higher so if your friend keeps gambling until his kid grows then it is likely his kid will become a gambler as well, so it could be a good idea that your friend quits gambling in the future or at least diminishes the amount of times he gambles.
