is there a connection between gambling and divorce rate?

Research from the National Gambling Impact Study Commission and the Gambling Impact and Behavior Study indicates that divorce rates for those dealing with gambling issues are estimated to be around 40% for problem gamblers and approximately 54% for pathological gamblers.

i think the moment we hide our gambling habits from our partners that is the moment we will get in trouble because that is when trust crumbles and when you get in trouble in gambling and have to tell your partner you will be surprising them

not to mention some people also spend money from money that both the partners contributed in

so aside from gambling responsibly, will you agree that we should disclose our gambling habits or is it not the business of our spouses? does gambling really have the capacity to break up a marriage or a family?

Of course gambling has the power to break up a marriage or family. However, with some good advice and intelligence, everything can be saved. For example, if we share our gambling habits with our family and husband and wife, then it is certainly possible to gamble while maintaining a good relationship. For example, I have shared my gambling with my family and my wife. My family knows about my gambling and everyone knows that I am only participating in sports betting for entertainment. In this case, I am 100% sure that there will never be any trouble with my wife. Moreover, there will be no talk about it in my family because everyone knows that I am using gambling for entertainment and participating with a very small amount of money.
