Responsible gambling habits has helped me stay out of debt since I was able to control the losses incurred in gambling.
This simple thing contributes to everything mentioned in OP such as maintaining healthy relationships with family members, having a good lifestyle and managing the finances.
I guess responsible gambling has only positive sides and should be followed by every gambler.

This is a good advice, we have to gamble responsibly so that our life as a whole will be worth emulating, being a gambler, we are expected to monitor the way we gamble and also keep a track record of how we continue on same manners, this will prevent us from trouble or putting ourselves into one, sometimes when we don't have money, then we should be able to have patience with gambling to wait and work to earn the amount needed for gambling than going by way of debt, as you've said already, there's always a benefit in every responsible gambling.

Becoming a responsible gambler is difficult but we have to keep trying. His suggestion could be a solution that we can try so that it doesn't affect our relationships with other family members because it will impact the relationships between family members. What would be even better if we could have more activities unrelated to gambling so that we won't gamble too often and won't make us addicted to gambling. However, we must control ourselves well so that no problems can arise between us and other family members.

Picking up an alternative to leave a habit is a good way to go and in this case there are so many things that you can do as an alternative to reduce your gambling time.
I personally have my day job which consumes my entire day and this leaves me only the weekends to gamble.
Also, sometimes I binge watch movies, series, go out with friends and thus this makes me gamble only when I have time left for gambling on weekends.
Sometimes it is every weekend that I gamble and then there are times where I don't gamble for 2-3 weekends.
So we really need to have a good patience level and self control so that we can control our gambling habits.
