How do we expect people don't judge quickly if the parents were involved children in gambling? It is totally the wrong way that people gambler with children. If they want to try luck in gambling center, please let the children to stay at home!
We would have then stories
2 years old kids alone at home for hours, while the father goes gambling. I would disagree with out, but add that each situation require individual approach. Imo its safer to take a child with, than leave it at home, no matter where you need to go. You can explain your child about gambling, if his interest to it appears after watching you gamble. But you can not help or safe your child if he is at home, but you are away.
