Hey gamblers' community, hope you're all doing great.
I wanted to convey my message here that gambling in front of our kids may put adverse effects on their growing minds and they may also take the wrong path and start gambling (either by asking you personally for funds or by stealing it in order to fulfill their gambling cravings).

I'm sharing this because I saw this issue with my kiddo who was once watching me gamble at a website playing blackjack and she started asking me more about the game. Then one day, she wanted to play it herself and asked me if she can go for it and I said "no, it's not your legal age to go for such games". So, it's better to keep our kiddos away from gambling and let them focus on their studies, else it'd actually ruin everything for the whole family if the kid takes the wrong path.

Our children often do not what we tell them or forbid or teach them, but precisely what we do ourselves. That is, when a child sees their parents smoking or drinking, they will probably do it themselves at a fairly young age. Regarding your situation, we can say that it is bad that you allowed your daughter to see that you are gambling. It depends on her age, if she is still small, less than 6-7 years old, then she will probably simply forget about this incident if she no longer sees you playing. If she's an adult, she'll probably remember this. In any case, you need to correctly explain to her that this is not worth doing and that you should never play in front of her again.

When you try to teach a child something, it will take much less time for him to learn it than it will take him to follow the actions you do. When a parent drinks alcohol and smokes cigarettes, the children will follow and consider them as normal and good things and try to do them too. And by inheritance that child will be addicted to these bad habits. so drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, gambling, watching adult content should be avoided in front of children. Otherwise the children will get addicted to bad drugs which will have a very bad effect on their future career and health

the thing is that when you take a child not to do something that you think that is wrong I think that you should not be doing those things you told me the present of the child so when you started doing those things your mentioned to them or you told them that is wrong in their presence they would think that you are lying to them that is why some people do emphasize that we should not Gamble in the front of our children or do anything wrong in front of our children because children do copy or take the step of the parents as good thing, that is why we don't bring up what we know that is bad or discussion what we think that is bad in the presence of children.
