There are many gamblers out there who gamble on a daily basis and they also have family members who are aware about him/her gambling. Some families are supportive and support us in doing so and they don't really care that much since it's gambling but some families are worried and they try their level best and put all efforts to make you quit gambling or to limit the hours you gamble in a day.

In my Family , only my brothers know that i Gamble and they don't really care that much since it's my own money and it's not my parents or their's but sometimes when i sit in front of the computer for around 3 hours gambling they would actually step in to stop me sometimes they literally do pranks on me so that i forget about the game and have some peaceful relax time. But other than that they are all in peace and i guess my eldest brother gambles too! I am not quite sure but i guess so.

Tell me if you have any Family Member that stops (you from) or wants you to quit GAMBLING.

My mom just warn me to not getting into it. If you make money from that, she agree. Relatives and my friend was warn me to stop doing gamble, but it was so addicting. 

I would put blame on my friend that asked me to join gambling, and after he losing like 2000$, he told me to stop.

My family calls me an addict, even though I am probably the most wealthy out of all of them. I think jealously plays a role here...

The funny thing is, they will gladly pay to buy a lotto ticket, but will never dare put a few bucks onto a blackjack table. smh

Well you can't really say they are jealous of you tho. Maybe they just care about you since as you said you are more wealthy than them so they just doesn't want you to loose all that money :) . Families would just worry for you but never be jealous of you.

No one can "make" anyone stop. All you can really do is to voice out your opinion. If things do not change, then you have to make a decision on what your next actions are. Ultumatums never works, at most, it is a temporary solution.

Well yeah no one can if you are living ask independently ask by yourself but if not and if you are living in your parents basement then I guess they can do stop you ?

My parents weren't happy about it when I told them about stake, because in their eyes gambling is ethically not right and it's waste of money. But my opinion is different.... xD

Well most parents say that because they hear these stories where " gambler losses life " or " gambler shot for loans " etc. So they get nervous and breakdown.

Personally I think you should all take your gambling money and move out on your own. 

If your old enough to gamble your old enough to rent.

 

grow up everybody, you can't live under your parents roof forever you bunch of bums.

I think gambling is bad and we shouldn’t be here, we could spend those busted money somewhere else to be happy, to enjoy those money with your girlfriend or your family or maybe save them.

But we are all addicted here we tried once and now we can’t stop that’s what addiction does.

My family doesn’t know that I play and gamble here but will tell them in the future.

Same here mate, my family is really taboo about gambling and my country also banned gambling activities. That's why i can't tell my family members about my gambling activities.

My brother knew that I am gambling online but he didn't try to stop me. He only compared me to our father because he knows our father used gamble a lot (TONG-ITS). He also tease me whenever I tell him I bust playing. All in all my brother is cool with it.

Well to be fair that when gambling begins to cause any sort of harm or serious concern to family, I would think that it is a high time for a deep reflection. Which then one should observe carefully whether has things gone too far or is it still salvagable particularly possible strained relationships?
