In a situation where the both spouse are gamblers. Husband gambles, wife gambles, how can both of them manage the situation in terms of finance and the family affairs especially when children are now involve so that the time both spends on gambling doesn't affect family moments and affairs in general.
Would it help if one of the couple quit for the other and if that's the case who should quit for who.
Smiles, seems like a job lol. If quitting is an option both short quit as gambling isn’t a means of income or survival. The family solely depends on both and if both gambles without limitation wether one or the other the family will still get wreck. The Husband might use the money meant for household needs to gamble likewise the wife using money for cooking or purchasing items, shopping for children to gamble too.
Such a person would know that gambling isn't sure and anything can happening the missile of the game, winning isn't certain and the potential of losses are very much there.
Self control plays it own role,same time we are talking about family finance in which both gambles we have to be considerate as possibility of addiction can't be exempted and i gave possible scenario of how such family will run. In essence both partners gambling need to be very discipline and have self control as you have said,if this isn't the case such family is wrecked.
