It's related, and I assume this rate is high. Couples have responsibilities in marriage, and these responsibilities also include financial ones. If someone loses the family's income to gambling, the outcome will be divorce. I've also witnessed couples becoming addicted to gambling together. If only one person has a gambling addiction, they should be supported.
Yes, it can be a difficult situation, but couples have supported each other through difficult times, even in the worst circumstances and situations.
Divorce is the worst consequence that an addicted gambler has to face. Never get involved in gambling if your partner doesn't support it, and I think it's very important to maintain trust with each other. If you and your partner are both fond of gambling, then the effort to maintain the relationship is even more difficult. monthly expenses will be much larger, many responsibilities will be neglected, one of which is a lack of attention to children.
I've also read a lot of news on social media about divorces caused by gambling addiction, and the numbers are constantly increasing. In my opinion, the government needs to step in to address this by tightening gambling regulations and restricting gambling advertisements. Gambling should be considered entertainment, and should not be taken seriously to the point of causing separation in the household.
