Inherited gambling

[danherbias07]

Responsible parent will never allow things like this to happen with their kids,

They will do everything to make sure that their kids will be away from this kind of activities, many argument
might come up, but the sure thing in my opinion, every responsible parent will do the best that they can
to avoid things to happen with their kids, they don't want to see them facing difficulties once addiction
triggered their kids.

That's correct and I will never argue with that as a parent. But there will be circumstances when a kid growing up is idolizing some of his friends. It happened to me. We have a clean house, nobody was allowed to smoke. We can play cards but there's no money involved, we use punishments for the loser like putting coal marks on the face of a cousin or sometimes just white powder until his face becomes so funny.
But after all that, I still learned to gamble, smoke, and drink. It's because of friends which is difficult to stop because you don't want your kid to rebel which might worsen the condition.
IMO, it's not genetic, most of the time the environment will dictate.

Friends is a big factors in such vices. I can agree with that since I grew up becoming one of them. I've learned gambling a long time a go and I have a friend who is also a gambler, This results me in participating more gambling activities. This is why parenting should involve knowing their child friends or their background for them to warn their kids on not what to copy or do the same as their friends. Depending on your area, You can still do guide your child even they are on an adult age. This age is where vices started coming as law doesn't limit them to do it.

Being responsible or not depends on how the regulations are applied in the country or in the region itself, because each country has its own regulations regarding gambling. So when gambling is legal in that country, then I think children will be free to gamble when they are of age to gamble and parents in this case can be normal. That is, no responsibility is placed on the parents themselves when the state does relieve gambling, but if the parents have their own opinion about gambling then the parents can then act as they should.

As time passes by, kids are growing, and even parents are trying their best. There's still chances that influence from

friends will intimidate. I'm sure as a parent we always wanted our kids to grow in a normal way, but considering all those dangers,
and the surroundings that they might be exposed.

They will develop closeness to someone that might introduce them to the kind of activities that we parents are really afraid,
I agree that screening people that will be surround your kids is also part of good parenthood..

In my opinion, the fact that you played card games at home as a child may well have influenced your passion for gambling later in life. If I were your parents, I would not use gambling for this kind of entertainment because there are a lot of fun games for company that can bring fun but cannot cause you to get addicted to gambling.

Once you grow in an environment the same with the of the gamblers you will mostly think that this is normal of course you will see their hard times and good times because we know how gambling can give emotional imbalance at the same time is financial problem to the player who does not control their gambling games base on their experience by that you can get a knowledge what are the things you can prevent and avoid to make sure you didn't experience the same worst.

I know we are greatly influenced by the environment we are born into and sometimes become gamblers because of where we find ourselves, i also considered the possibility of gambling being hereditary and found out that it is also possible, that is gambling can be hereditary ,

Gambling is linked to a gene that is passed on through generations and a new study claims that it is passed on to both sons and daughters alike.

now come to think of it since it is difficult to escape our genetic makeup,
- Would you blame an individual who becomes addicted to gambling because it is wired to his DNA?

-Can their gambling problem be put in check by regular methods?

-Will the addiction be worse than someone who picked up the habit?

A fascinating question that makes you think carefully. I felt it was hard for me to imagine gambling addiction as a genetic disease or disorder. Nevertheless, the formation of this dependence is influenced by a person's choice, actions, and the lifestyle they lead.

However, I believe that as soon as the love of gambling becomes an addiction, a person needs serious professional help, as if they had an addiction to illegal substances or alcohol.

Gambling addiction is not a disease or genetic disorder but the result of what we constantly do and are not aware of any changes in ourselves. Gambling addiction is dependence on gambling games and we want to play longer but unfortunately, we use our money to play and don't give many wins if we don't have luck.

If you are addicted to gambling, you need help from other people and we even have to contact professionals who can help us overcome the gambling addiction. But the role of the family will be very important because they are the closest people to us who can supervise and help us to find solutions.

I honestly also find it hard to imagine that addiction can be inherited. but if you read the description of the op that there have been studies that claim this statement. I believe and I agree that the formation of this dependence is influenced by the choices, actions, and lifestyle of a person especially in this era. everyone has the choice and the intelligence to think in their actions. especially in this case concerning gambling, a person who has the gambling gene from his ancestry cannot be claimed or confirmed that he will become a gambling addict.

Making sure that our kids have good friends and don't spend time with sketchy people is important, but parents can't control everything in the life of their kids. Eventually they are going to leave the house and make decision on their own. Already in high school children will be more independent and might even have rebellious phase where they won't accept anything from their parents. In my opinion it's best to try and make them understand why there are age restrictions on things like gambling or alcohol. Teaching critical thinking and some scepticism can help in later parts of life too. My parents are totally against gambling and never taught me anything about it. I will do the opposite and be very open about gambling with my kids when they are old enough.
