Another reason to avoid gambling from the family is because we will be accused of wasting money that is used to always play gambling and we can not be trusted to manage anything related to finances.
It is mostly for this reason that many of us keep gambling activities away from friends and family members.
The odd part is that, from my own personal experience, if you bring money home and you are asked where you got it from, and you tell them you won it from betting, they are happy and congratulating you and are even happy you did whatever you did (gamble or bet) to win the money..
but then on the other hand, keep gambling or betting and keep loosing the money, and open up to the family or even friends who dont gamble, and you instantly become the black sheep amongst them, more reason why i prefer to keep all my activities to myself , both the winning and loses, though its different for friends i gamble with.
