I know we are greatly influenced by the environment we are born into and sometimes become gamblers because of where we find ourselves, i also considered the possibility of gambling being hereditary and found out that it is also possible, that is
gambling can be hereditary ,
Gambling is linked to a gene that is passed on through generations and a new study claims that it is passed on to both sons and daughters alike.
now come to think of it since it is difficult to escape our genetic makeup,
- Would you blame an individual who becomes addicted to gambling because it is wired to his DNA?
-Can their gambling problem be put in check by regular methods?
-Will the addiction be worse than someone who picked up the habit?
A fascinating question that makes you think carefully. I felt it was hard to imagine gambling addiction as a genetic disease or disorder. Nevertheless, the formation of this dependence is influenced by a person's choice, actions, and the lifestyle they lead.
However, I believe that as soon as the love of gambling becomes an addiction, a person needs serious professional help, as if they had an addiction to illegal substances or alcohol.
