Would you want your kids gambling?
Does your family look at gambling funny?

Does it bother you that some look at gambling like its a bad thing?

Do you know anyone that's lost everything from gambling?

A) Extended family is too ignorant to understand that it's possible to win a gambling. Immediate family are too ignorant despite explanations but trust me so they tolerate it.
B) No
C) Yes

Yes. Parents don't care for it, because they have the image that most gamblers are low lifes. Think they get that from seeing track junkees at Del Mar Racing.

My parents always told me that gambling money had no home!
One my best friend's dad is a gambler and his sons gamble. That is currently their job! People look at them like they sell drugs.
