Best way to help an addicted gambler

[Jaycoinz]

This method might not be an effective method to help an addicted gambler, the problem can not just be solved by locking up the person for a period of 2 years, if the dad does that, he is just wasting the guys time for no reason, because there's every possibility that once the guy leave there after 2 years, he will still go back to gambling. To solve a problem properly, you must tackle it with the right solution, and his intentions of locking the guy doesn't seem like a right solution.

So what do you class as the write method of tackling the issue at hand because one way or the other the problem must eventually be solved and restriction is one way that would help although the gambler himself will have to make or should I say that the bold decision that would things work out for him because no matter the decision or steps that is taken to help the addicted person out everything will still boil down to the person as the final construct of the whole plan.

The possibility of the child returning to gambling or returning to his gambling habit is certainly real, and I agree with that, unless the child truly forgets about gambling during his time in prison, but no one knows what the child will think after he's released, or even while incarcerated. Gambling addicts can recover from their addiction if they realize the wrongdoing, but without awareness, it will be difficult, even with help.

A more appropriate solution might be to send the child to a rehabilitation center. If this is done after incarceration, but the child still suffers the same consequences, it means the child is truly addicted. There's no other way but to suffer enormous losses, including the loss of everything, including his family.

An elderly man was asked in front of me if his son, who is always gambling somehow got addicted to gambling, and they tried to talk him out of it, but all to no avail, what method he thinks he can use that will be very effective, and he said he will use his military influence to get his own son arrested and locked up for at least 2 years if he stays without any means of gambling his brain will adjust by itself.

Do you guys think such method will be effective or cause more harm to the person itself.

He is not helping anyway but rather pushing his son to feel useless and hate in his heart.
I know we want to discipline everyone in the family, but it should be in the right way. The current generation is more sensible compared to the old generation. Even if we find it too much and they are not doing right anymore, we don't have to be punished like that as well. For them, it is abuse already, and guess what, they don't want to be treated like that. We also need to listen and understand their feelings. And we don't want to reach the point that they no longer respect us because we're too harsh with them.

Locking him up with military help won't solve these problems, on the contrary, the boy will hate his father even more. Yes, I can understand his situation, he decided to make this decision after being very upset because he had no other options. Because it is very difficult to free a gambler from his addiction.

I myself have seen that when one of my cousins ​​became addicted to gambling, the family had a lot of trouble bringing him back to a normal life. Family support is very important in bringing a gambler addicted to gambling back to a normal life so that he does not make any more bad decisions in this situation that could put his life in danger.

If it’s for the good of my child, then why wouldn't I do it? But before I go through with that plan, I’ll give him a warning or have a serious talk with him first. I’ll let him know that if he doesn't change his ways regarding his gambling addiction, I will have to take those measures.

At least I won’t have any regrets about failing to remind him as a father. All I want is to keep him away from a vice that could destroy his character and his relationships with the people closest to him.

It could be effective or cause more harm to the person, people suffer from different kinds of addiction and also requires different methods to cure them, some people are very stubborn that when they are not willing to be cured, every effort made to help them will be futile. To be able to tell if this method will be effective or cause more harm, you would have to study the addicted gambler.

If he stays in prison he may not have to gamble on sport but he may start to roll dice with inmates, and that is a wicked gambling, in prison for two years will expose him to homosexuality if he was already homosexual before going in then it will expose his to viral infections, he will be exposed to hard drugs that he can be addicted to, he will be drawn away from his family. You can’t send you child to prison for two years and expect a better person.

[silpersurfer]

It's quite difficult to stop someone from experiencing a gambling addiction; it requires precise steps over a relatively long period of time. And putting someone in prison isn't a solution; it's the equivalent of forcibly stopping someone from gambling. While it's effective in overcoming addiction, have we ever considered that it only worsens family relationships, and it's tantamount to solving a problem with another problem? Furthermore, there's a more appropriate place than prison: rehabilitation. He's simply addicted, not a crime.

Unless his gambling addiction has a domino effect, such as committing crimes to obtain money for gambling, then prison is the best place for him.

You cannot use force to stop an addicted gambler, he will only find a way to do what is accustomed to doing. The best advice for such fellow is to seek the services of a psychologist who will be able to convince the gambler that gambling the way his going is wrong and that there are better ways to do that. They will make it obvious that gaming addiction is not something that should be handled casually.

My head was also calculating in the same area, the type of gambling which happens inside prison is very violent has not been theirs, but at least it has been shared as a story in movies. Unless the man plans to pick his son up in a private prison, if not he might end up producing another very hard gambler even before he finishes his two-year term in that prison.

The best way out is to see a therapist that will counsel him out of gambling and if it does not work is to take him to rehabilitation when he can be properly treat of his addiction, using military power will only worsen the situation which he will no longer be able to handle, gambling addiction cases always ends up in a rehab if it has gone beyond control, it is only when it is till controllable that you can handle it, force will not help

If you try to force them to stop gambling they can only listen to you but when you are not monitoring them well they will use the opportunity to even gamble more, If you want to help an addicted gambler to get out of gambling without taking him or her to a psychologist you can do that by placing them on a special monitoring you make sure they have no access to a computer that has casinos in it likewise their mobile phones then you ensure you don't allow them to go out alone if you do this while you teach them the need to stop gambling it will help them instead of using force.

[Russlenat]

If his son is really addicted, then he should seek for professional help because that is the best thing to, not the military kind of discipline. Otherwise, it will only develop fear in the mind of his child, which could lead to gamble more as a way of escaping his father's way of discipline.

However, as far as I know, the best way to help an addicted gambler is to bring him in a rehabilitation center, where his needs to heal are reachable. That way, he will be given proper medical, psychological and spiritual attention to finally heal from gambling addiction. His father should remain his best support system all throughout this process.

The hard part is only at the beginning, but the solution will only be given once positive action takes place.

Force cannot be used to actually stop a child from involving in gambling or even limit their participation in gambling activities. There are other ways to discipline a child that is involved into gambling, and not by using military force to lock him up for two years. The fact is that, you can’t even do that for that long and will release him as you’re not the best person to discipline your own ward. There are rehabilitation centers everywhere, to check in and see how they can discipline your child for the better. If it’s already in the blood, it will be harder to remove such from the child but you just have to see the possibility of it happening.

[Furball808]

It could work on his son, who knows? We require different methods and if that straightens him out then good. We can’t really say for sure which one would or wouldn’t work because as said we have different approaches to combat addiction.

The physical method of punishing children will only result to traumatising them and preventing them to recover naturally and in a healthy manner. We understand how the professional intervention with the help of rehabilitation institutions is a much more effective way than to arbitrarily make his will at home. A profound insight into the cause of the issue, will assist us to offer the correct solutions without undermining the emotional attachment between the parents and children. The human and calculated treatment by handling them makes them have a chance to become more responsible people.

If private and sincere talks don't work, it may be time to seek support from a medical professional. Most countries that regulate gambling have a government commission or support group specifically for gambling addiction, those are good places to start.

Patience is crucial. Avoid using a strict, military kind approach, as it often backfires. Recovery works better with understanding, consistency, and proper guidance rather than pressure or force.

You know if the people around are having a lot of troubles facing it, how much more for the gambler itself. Emotional support is what he needs the most, that he will try to look the positive side instead why got discipline instead of hating it.

The only way to help the gambler is to let the gambler fix himself first. And when he's ready to accept the help of others, that's where family's guidance and support should come in. The gambler will then feel safe and secured knowing he has his family always ready to guide him.

I cannot say whether a person addicted to gambling will be completely cured by being imprisoned, but the addiction will be reduced to some extent compare to before. When we can stop a bad habit for a long time, even if the addiction does not completely decrease, some change can be expected. Gambling will not become an addiction by following the right rules from the beginning and consistently limiting oneself to one's means, it is very important to take time after winning or losing while gambling, as a result, emotions can be controlled, and as a result, gambling does not become an addiction. When a gambler gambles for entertainment purposes and limits himself to his means, gambling does not become a power, the fun of gambling can be enjoy.

Family support is very important in getting a gambling addict back on track. Any addiction can take people from bad to worse, making it impossible for them to recover, even if they try. I have seen many people I know who are addicted to gambling, who have lost a lot of money gambling and still cannot quit. They are living a very bad life.

Despite all this, their families are trying to help them break this addiction. And their families are the ones who suffer the most for their addiction, so they try their best to get rid of their addiction. Therefore, the most effective way to get rid of any gambler's addiction is family support.
