Do we still blame getting drunk in addiction on societal influence and peer pressure though? Cause, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me!!
Now these limits have been expanded. You can imitate someone on the Internet; there will always be dark geniuses who will teach you bad things if you have an internal predisposition. Education and strength of character are born in the family; if the family does not explain all the "mines" of gambling, then the future novice player will see them from another source. As an example, a similar topic and a review from an ordinary random user:
Smoking cigarettes is one thing that peer pressure made me do. It's not easy sitting with friends and everyone is smoking, drinking and doing all manner of things and you sit down watching. But the funny thing is when it turns out good it's not peer group pressure but as soon as it turns out bad the word peer group pressure just come out. Peer group pressure can make or mar you. It can push you to the end of your world or can lift you above your expectations.
