in my hometown there is a unique habit where families play gambling every New Year's Eve gathering. playing with family or our parents consider it normal. even though actually gambling in my country is illegal. but because it has become a culture for every family it seems like the state is giving dispensation that night. gambling against family or parents in that night is just to have a fun, win or lose is not a problem. because we play for happiness.

If you are going to look at, it's more of a tradition. We also have similar family bonding or traditions similar to that during Christmas or New Year's eve. Just a simply bingo game wherein everyone is involved and it's all of fun during that holiday season.

But to totally play in like online or traditional casino, I don't know, I still have my feelings that it shouldn't be done with your parents.

Gambling with your parents might be the unusual bonding of the family but I was able to experience this one before.

In my place, you can gamble on the wake which is normal and a form of sympathy. I was young that time and my dad was playing on the other table called "Mahjong", my Mom was playing "Bingo", and I'm playing card game (Tong-its) that time and it looks like my whole family are playing and aiming to win some money

When I grew up, gambling becomes our source of happiness but suddenly becomes our worst enemy because honestly my parents got separated because of gambling and until now they blame the addiction of my dad. I'm old enough now to realize that was a biggest mistake of my family, to let that addiction ruin our family. I promise to myself not to be like my dad, I will not expose my kids into gambling.

Will you do the same mistakes of my family or you will keep your kids or even yourself away from gambling?

Gambling for fun isn't a bad thing, but show to the kids how to gamble to make money, then there is a problem, at least gambling with money should be for people bigger than 18 or 21, and that's why casinos doest't allow kids.

That's kind of family bonding, so it's just for fun but if it's serious game, I don't think it's good. If you were the parents, would you like your kids to learn gambling, especially that you know how addictive gambling is and they would turn them like you are. Gambling with family depends if it was just for fun, past time, etc, then I guess, it's not that bad.
There's no wrong to gamble with family that's alright, there are some cases like OP because they make serious on playing. I'd love to have fun with my family, but I think this is really an expensive way of having fun just try to encourage your family to have fun on other things so you can save your family and don't be like the family of OP.

I misread the title, I though it was gambling "against" your parents. That would have been very funny.

I see other kids also being exposed in gambling. Many parents are allowing their kids watch them gamble and eventually learn the games. I don't know if that turned out good, maybe it's a case to case basis.

Personally, i wouldn't want to gamble with my parents becasue we aren't good when it come to play time. Since i was introduced into the world of gambling, my parents aren't aware of my involvement, so, gambling with them will cause me more injuries than i thought. Even, my parent never encourage gambling, as it's against our religion and custom. 
Gambling will not do any good especially when treating it as a serious activities, it will add more pressures when you are sitting in front of your parents and playing against them, if you have such good custom you will never encounter this and suffer with huge involvement as your parents will not tolerate your act, good to follow what they've done not to encourage gambling inside your family.
Gambling with parents will not really bring any good because aside from the pressures you will gain from gambling,there are also high chances that you will get all lose in gambling at the end of the day.It' enough already to see one member of the family as a gambler but having involved the rest of the family team is never a good idea.

On the other hand, you get to gamble with more responsible people and having your parents with in this kind of hobby may avoid getting you too hooked. It's not as if all of you will have the same outlook towards gambling. One or both may stand up to say that's enough and that's a good way to control your gambling ways. Your parents will always look to what's better for you because that's what most parents do so for me, i think it's not a bad idea after all.

I'm afraid I could defeat my parents.
 
We know some of our parents aren't in gambling before or maybe hated gambling, so if we know already how they treated any gambling activities, it is good to be not with them when we gamble. This is the reason why I never play with them, better preferred to play against my friends or office mates.

 It also depends with other parenting styles, not all parents hated gambling because there's another type that they treated gambling as family bonding. One example to that is the card games, which they only used small amount of money used to bet. Nothing serious that matters, but only for fun games with small money involved. Sometimes it became that hated with other parents when their son or daughter became addicted to money betting which could demand money from them to maximum need.

Different people will have different attitude so we can't simply say they will not support us for gambling activities but most of them won't.But millionaire parents might have complete different behaviour they will support their kids on whatever things they were doing.So its is in our hand to deice gambling with them or just take any other occasions to spend time with them.

I didn't think that far to bet with my parents, because my parents didn't know that I like to play gambling because I respect them because they know gambling isn't good and if it's addicted it will be dangerous.
so as much as possible I keep it a secret so my parents don't know that I like to play gambling.
Do you know the meaning of respect?what stupidity that you are saying here?if you truly respect your parents you must not secretly gamble since you already that they don’t like that and they are prohibiting you from doing such,
So better think of respecting them by following their warnings or just keep your bad doing and turn them back
Haha ... that would be far better than playing gambling openly with parents, how sick the parents are when parents forbid it but still do it.
I am not an active gambling player and I only describe and appreciate what parents do not know will be much better than open and painful.

Do you know what I mean respectfully?

I think it's worse to keep your children away from gambling, because sooner or later they will discover it by themselves and if they weren't taught how to deal with this activity, it can be much more dangerous.
Look how many young people discovered gambling recently and are having issues with addiction as they weren't guided properly by a tutor before.
As you had issues with your father addiction and know gambling risks, you won't be a bad example for your children, so you can teach them how to play in a smart way, for entertainment purposes and only during special events.

It is truly impossible to gamble with my parents sitting next to me. Earlier I've been into gambling and at times I used to behave harsh with my parents without doing any work to them after losing on sports betting. Later they came to warn on this and further to that I stopped spending on gambling knowing it to them.

It wont really be that bad if all things related to gambling would be remotely controlled but we do still know the risk of potential addiction.So,if you are a
sensible type of parent then you would most likely think up on this way where you would definitely avoid your children to engage with gambling even on simpliest
means since the possibility of problems ahead would really be there.

Well, games like mahjong or poker or any card games are addictive. The feeling of wanting to have more or the urge of winning is there. In my family, we only do betting games mostly on NBA play offs or in the NBA Finals. Predicting who will win in the next finals in NBA. It is just a family bonding thing and to even boost the excitement while watching it together.

This is such a sad story to hear and I would like to tell you that everything happens for a reason. Gambling with your family is not bad at all it’s actually a nice thing to do or a great past time but the wrong thing is your reason. It should be because you guys want to just chill and have fun or maybe earn a little money but not to be greedy. Your father is doing something wrong and it affects your family if maybe someone is there to tell him or stop him on whatever he’s doing then maybe it can be saved and on your opinion on not letting your kids gamble it’s your decision but on my part I will if they wanted to but I will be there to guide and regulate them.
