You will agree with me that society and the environment can have a great influence on the lifestyle of every individual, you often can find yourself doing, or being involved in that activity that almost everyone is involved with in that your locale as a result of influence. Now considering someone who is a gambling addict, is there any possibility of him/her becoming better if they are relocated to another environment or society where people around are not involved in gambling?
Can someone still develop the habit of gambling and become an addict even though no one around gambles?
For me if the person is already addicted to it then there is a low chance that he/she would stop even if he/she moves to a new place.
We have so many online gambling sites nowadays so it would really be hard to stop for someone who is already addicted to it.
If a person moves to a rural place with no internet connection and gambling is frowned upon by the community in that area, then there is nothing that person can do but stop gambling. That is a simple scenario where a gambling addict has no choice but to stop gambling because he has no access to gambling facilities and the people around him look at gambling activity as a bad thing.
