As you said about risky activities in gambling it is actually not that risky if you can limit yourself. Limiting means playing within your financial capacity and not gambling beyond your financial capacity. The most effective method is to gamble according to your bankroll every week. Limit the time you spend playing and managing your bankroll in line with income. Addiction will have a negative impact on family life in many cases divorce is also observed. Therefore, not only gambling addiction but any addiction can have a negative impact on your family life.

Well, that's true. Gambling is basically just a form of entertainment, and if done in moderation, like anything else, without overdoing it, it's not risky or problematic. However, many people, especially those in the lower middle class, take gambling too seriously because they think winning is easy and will help them change their lives little by little, or perhaps drastically. I agree with you, any addiction can have negative consequences.

Exactly, if being done with full responsibility then it can be treated as part of your entertainment just the same with spending money with watching movies or going out with friends and have some social time, but in terms of unable to handle such emotions which most of the time is the cause of getting addicted, there's always a consequence when dealing to this type of entertainment, if failed to handle the pressure and let yourself being addicted then divorce is one of those bitter outcome that may occured.
