I have, and they are no better than any gambling addicts. growing up, I've seen a lot of them spending all day gambling while their husband is working. they would get angry if their kid/s ask for money to buy food. they would also get angry if the husband didn't make enough money for the day(a lot of the husbands are
tricycle drivers).
That is a condition where the wife is very addicted to gambling because a wife must be able to take care of her children and help her husband in his household. If this is allowed, there will probably be many divorces and I feel sorry for those children because they could be depressed and traumatized by their childhood.
The one stated by acroman08 is also a common scene in my place. Wives of drivers often have lots of free time since they don't have any other jobs. If they are not gossiping, they are gambling with the little money they have. Worst they are doing that stuff on the street, near the door of one of the players. Then they get annoyed when their children asked for money to buy food. I don't know the reason but their husband just tolerate their gambling activities.
Their husbands should warn their wives that what they are doing is not good for their family because it will result in a lack of money to meet their household needs. But if it were a local culture today, perhaps the wives would continue to gamble while the husbands worked. But at the very least, the environment must change so that the wives can realize their mistakes and put their family first before gambling. The local government's support by providing good direction and understanding to the wives may make them stop gambling.
It's easy to guess where these kids knew about gambling. It's either from an ad through search engines, social media banners. Or someone has just told them about it personally.
Everyone most likely has an easy access for internet these days and there's no restriction even for kids.
That's right. We can see how children today are addicted to using the internet, not to mention seeing things they shouldn't see or get. And when they see gambling, it can make them curious and want to try it. The internet provides it all and today, internet facilities are more adequate than a few years ago so that today's children can use them without their parents knowing.
It'll only create a trauma if the death is an accident or brutal and not with a normal cause.
When children have experienced trauma, it will be difficult to erase it from their memory because it makes them very afraid to step into new things.
