Default Please stop gambling

My son has ruined his future because of betting games. His college funds, the respect of his family, and his fiance is leaving him. I will cross post this message across every vile forum that glorifies gambling I can find. I will also be writing a United States congressman and informing them about sites like these.

We must not let any more children suffer because of this illness.

Another bad parent, blaming society for not bringing up her children, correctly.

Why dont you show some respect? What you are doing is an addiction. Talk down on my son, do you think you will end differently. Gambling is an illness. You will win some days. But ask yourself how much did you lose.

Agreed. Kids should not gamble. But instead of placing the blame on other people, maybe you should look in the mirror and come to the realization that you were an unknowing, unsuspecting parent and go from there. Its not our fault your kid did what he did. So why blame us? We didnt call your house and entice him to join. Preach if you must, just place the blame where it is justified. In the home.

Lets not be too hard on this person, aside from the "I'll tell a congressman" on you line. Sorry to hear about your son, if he was or is in college it's not too late to turn his life around.

Where were you when your kid was gambling? Maybe you should create your own forum and bash yourself. Your inability to parent and guide has messed your son.

I dont think we glamorize gambling. Just watch a JJgold or richkas vid.

It is only an addiction if you allow it to become an addiction, just like with alcohol. Now I feel bad for your son, I really do, but just because one person has no self-control, that should have no impact on recreational gamblers that know their limits or on professional gamblers that do this successfully for a living. Just like no one is rushing to close down bars even with all of the alcoholics in the world.

Sports betting is a better investment than the stock market. It has outperformed the indexes in the last 15 years for most of us. You should encourage him to follow us here for his own benefit.

Nobody will win gambling all the time. It is not a good hobby to get into. My son used to win but luck runs out. ask yourself for me, because I care. Forget the winnings, how much did you lose? Contribute to society, and dont you dare call me a bad parent. i would not try to spread the message if i didnt care about my son.

Dear Mom,
Give your son some money - there's some great games coming up (tonight, in fact, Fresno State).

Not to mention college football season opens in eight weeks and with all the talent on SBR, I'm sure he'll win lots of money and will be able to pay you back, plus 5 percent interest, which is a helluva lot more money you'll make on a CD, investing in stocks or 401k and real estate investments nowadays.

I'd deposit $10,000 in a Diamond account and turn him loose.

This thread is equivalent to teachers in Middle school warning students about drugs and why it's bad. No matter how much teaching you can give a person, it's ultimately their choice and free will to smoke cigarettes or drink and drive. If a person doesn't have enough common sense to understand the situation they're in, then what makes you think the Government can do anything about. Has the Government even stopped drugs from coming into this country yet, hell no.

There are your two main fallacies. I have been winning at gambling. Not all the time you are correct. Some days your down some your up. My up days outnumber the down in number and value. Thus I am up over the long run.

Two it's none of your business what my hobbies are. You chose to spend money on playing tennis or biking. I chose to spend my money on weither the Giants win tonight or not.

You wanna be a dictator we can be one too. Your being very hypocritical if you take a step back. Granted I'm sorry your son lost in the long haul, but that just means someone is winning on the other side. Sorry it wasnt him.

Man, people never learn... stop feeding the troll u dim bulbs.

I used to do the same years ago, going on christian forums trolling about abortion or pretending to be a mom that is freaked out cuz she found porn in her son's room, worried 'bout his soul and stuff...

It's funny to see how many people take it seriously

This kind of sounds like my college years ( I was able to graduate). The best thing you could do now is to go to GA meetings with him. Usually at the same time the gamblers meet there is a meeting for support/loved ones. You may see his immediate plans ruined, but here is a chance to help him with this addiction. Sad to say sometimes the bad things that have happened still aren't a deterant.


We should show some respect for this mom/lady. Although you may not agree w/ her, she is a woman and calling her names shows how classy you are. This is a form of therapy for her. It is a gambling forum. Not everyone has to like it.


Mom, although you think the world has come to an end, it hasn't. You could have a picture perfect son then next thing you know he drives home drunk and kills someone. Things could be worse.

Lastly, things happen for a reason. He seems pretty young to me. I'll guess 20 (too young for marriage anyway). Get him the help he needs and stay on top of him. All is not lost by any means.

Forget any of this because it is the work of a ghost.

was it a illness when he was winning or only when he started losing? some of us do not bet to pay bills only to have fun.
