I have come across Local gamblers who are addicted to gambling and had ruined their selves by themselves til they ran bankrupt yet they borrows money to gamble at all means even While being indebted.
Avoid gambling like this and most importantly, control by those closest to you is really needed because when you are addicted, it will be much more difficult to recover because they already feel dependent.
Theses sets of gamblers doesn't have remorse nor conscience about their gambling lifestyles instead their friends and relatives are the ones who bears the shameful consequences the addicted gambler brought to their circle of relationships.
At the virtue of getting the unbearable situations to an end, the relatives broadcasts the chronic addicted gambler at all costs of gambling boards never to give him privileges to gamble in any of the Gambling arenas anymore else they (the relatives) would sue the gambling boards owner.
This is just how recklessness could mess your life of you can't take control to gamble responsibly.
I know several people in my neighborhood like this and they are always a nuisance to anyone. So it is the family who bears the burden and the family has to pay every time they damage someone's property due to erratic behavior. Before things get worse, it is better for them to be rehabilitated and not be able to stay in the same environment because it will affect their lives by repeating the same things.
Keeping them in that environment will not solve the problem and taking them to a place that treats addiction problems is a much better decision. That's why parental control is very important before they get too involved and usually people who behave like that do not have love from their parents so they try to vent it in activities that are not useful.
