True if children follows their parents footsteps the world would been a better place, many thing the children do today the parents never do them, its just our world. The way their train our parents is the different from how our parents train us today. internet has more influence to the children than parents. so its hard to copy your parents life styles. As for me, my parents hate gambling and they banned us from playing it. yet we still play because we have access to the internet and i can play without stepping outside. Parents really has no say on the impact of gambling on children, but they can reduce it by playing advisory role.
True, if children followed in their parents footsteps the world would be a better place, but it doesn't always depend on the parents.
For example, i didn't feel like managing children, i didn't feel up to it nor did i want to do it and i decided not to have any.
If you decide to have a child you have to work hard
