This would as a prerequisite mean that the family still lives under one roof or how should it be possible for family members to have an eye all the time on the activities of someone who could be gambling too much? And even then it is unrealistic because if that happens and the family puts pressure on someone who gambles so much, how would they check activities when someone goes outside and plays on their mobile. This idea to observe someone's activities around the clock doesn't make a lot of sense. It would make more sense to offer someone alternative activities that the person enjoys, that the person chooses something more meaningful to do than gambling. Observation isn't a sustainable solution at all.

That's not what it means. Family members can keep an eye on each other's family members by paying attention to their day-to-day behavior so that if something is different, they will know and can approach it more closely to discuss it. If a family they are used to being open to each other, they can tell what is going on, and other family members will know that pressure is on them so that other family members can immediately provide assistance.

We can't offer anything more meaningful if we don't know what happened to family members. For this reason, we can chat with each other or pay attention to their behavior to know if something is wrong with them. If a person wasn't used to being in his room for long periods, a mother or sister would be suspicious and might ask him what was wrong. So watching his behavior like that will vary from one family to another.

If the family members was found involved in gambling,the first person to oppose will be your wife or your mother.The gamblers attitude will be changed when he involved in the gambling,first he reduce the amount of money he giving to the family.By this the family members will think where he spending the money.At first they will check the gamblers spending money on any bad habits like drinking alcohol and smoking.If they find so,he will be escape from the family members.Because the family members will not check further,incase the gamblers don’t have any habits.Then he will easy find by the family members about his gambling activities.

Our wife, mother or sister will be against what we do in gambling. And if they find out we are already involved in gambling, they will probably use all kinds of ways to get us out of gambling and maybe quit gambling for good. They will do everything to ensure we won't gamble again, and the ways they do won't be the same as what other people do, and often we will see ways that are out of the ordinary.

They will be too easy to be suspicious of our new habits and will make sure that everything is still okay. Perhaps we will be interrogated for a long time by them to make sure that we are still the same person who has not done anything wrong.
