Same is our stance on everything in life including gambling. We do whatever we like but we do not want our children to do the same things. If parents didn't gamble in the first place, there are fewer chances of their children doing the same.
Damn true, that is why as much as possible we show to them good sides and not the bad ones. This starts when they are little kids, they save memories and what comes to their mind at that age will be remembered for a lifetime. If your children sees you as a gambler, possibility is, they would also be gamblers in the future, so teach them not to be at the young age and the chances would be minimum. I know someone, a hard gambler and his parents are not. So another factor is the community where you raise your children, they could get the habit of gambling with friends and other people they mingle with. Really better to try being a strict parent and see what they up into.
Only a few would really able to realize up things that they should not do on what their parents are doing.It is a matter of realization and its better to make them realize when they are just still
young and its true that those things would really remain into their minds forever and wouldnt really be able to forget it.
Parents can play a vital role in a child's environment. It might also be a good idea to discuss something like this. Sooner or later a child will come into contact with gambling, it does not always have to be online. It can also start in a real land-based casino. But I think it's easier on that. The environment is also determined by a group of friends. If there are a number of friends among them who gamble, then you have to be strong.
