I just read my grandsons messages. Yes I have a great big problem with gambling. Don't think all of you guy and gals know this but 97 persent of all gambles have a very compulsive behavior. 3/4 of them will go back to gambling if the do attend meetings. This problem has something to do with the brain once you get hooked you can't quit. Yes every one should have freedom. But the government is abandoning smoking from all sorts of places. Gambling can be worse then smoking. Most of the people who end up gambling, either end up in prison or end up dead. People will do anything to gamble. So they might just start killing other people to get money to gamble. So please tell me where are you getting all of you information. Have you seem like idiots. If you don't have the problem, stop trying to tell other people how to solve the problem.

The only problem you have with gambling is losing.
Where are you getting your information, "Most of the people who end up gambling, either end up in prison or end up dead." This is a totally false statement!! And in a very small percent will gambling be worse than smoking.
Compulsive behavior doesn't start with gambling. As I see it that behavior is being taught in school, for the past 20 years. Telling kids what a good job there doing, before they do anything. Just like bill gates says this is the worst thing for kids. This does NOT prepare them for the real world.

1. What messages?
2. Take an English class.
3. The effects of gambling are rarely that severe.
4. Why mention smoking here?
5. What information?
6. Half of us seem like idiots? That's a nice approach to take when seeking help.
7. "Stop trying to tell other people how to solve the problem." Ok, maybe you don't want an answer.
Thanks for wasting my time. Hopefully you wasted yours reading this.

I dont know where you get your information from. Yes, gambling can be addictive, but you need to have a little self control. How about next time you want to gamble, instead spend the money on your grandkids.
