I would choose my family I could always find another way to earn money so why would I even risk my own family over gambling?
Normal person would always choose their family over gambling unless they are terrible addicted to it.
It's your choice and we need to respect it. Each of us has a right to choose, it's freedom of choice. We need to respect decisions
that other people made, no matter do we like it or not.
We can discuss about why some people can choose gambling over family, what if that family is bad and he wish to escape from them?
We can't judge about something without more facts about specific case.
I don't choose between gambling and family, cause gambling is not my passion. I like to gamble from time to time with some tiny amount
of money, mostly betting on sports. People who have passions in life often needs to choose to pursuit that passion in life and confront
family or to stay with family and sacrifice part of them.
