Gambling before your children is very similar To stealing or having sex before them because they will learn more than you And will like To try it with their peer groups in School especially in the Hostels.

this analogy might be too much, because i also grew up in an environment where people gambled every day, but i didn't grow up being a gambling addict. because it still comes back to the individual, because many gambling addicts are born from good families. so even though it is not recommended to gamble in front of children, even if we gamble in front of them there is no certainty that they will gamble more than we do.
Also true, it's on the person itself whether to take part in gambling or change his way but the influence it can bring can't be deny which if the kids see things as normal usually they will follow that track, thinking that its' just normal since they are seeing adult people that surrounds them are just doing it without any conviction.
This how important your cares about your kids or on the young minds that still in your vicinities, they can be influence if you are not careful with how you treat your gambling.
I do say that being a responsible gambler doesn't change anything when it comes to little ones, one has to be extremely careful. Come to think of it, if the little children started gambling just because their parents are gambling, but couldn't control themselves and be responsible in doing it the way their parents are. That will be so disastrous. Adult things are adult things, exposing children to such is a violation and an abuse, and illegal by law, which is punishable under many counts. So, no matter how we believe we are in gambling, we should know that it is an adult activity, and for this, it is better we entirely take it out of our children's reach.
If our children are such that are opportune to use our gadgets, it is better that we lock some applications to avoid them seeing the adult contents and activities. This is no matter how we trust our children as all these adult things are so physiological and we might not know when it would infest them. Lastly, if we would want to gamble, there are many places we can do it when we are 100% sure they are not around. I am sure you are doing both yourself and your children a whole lot of good by doing that.
