How to help your elders quit gambling?

When I saw this title, I couldn't help but think of my cousin. He used to be a very fond of gambling. Eight horses couldn't pull him back, which broke my aunt's heart. At that time, he was almost thirty years old and had not yet found a wife, so he would go to the casino every day. In order to get him to stop gambling, we also thought of many ways.

Method one, don’t give him money. He has no money on hand, at least he can stay for a few days. In a place like a casino, if you don't have money on hand, no one will play with you. When he first started gambling, he borrowed money from all his friends, classmates, and relatives who could. Everyone knew what kind of person he was, so now it is difficult to borrow money and he can only stay at home.

Method two, find him a job. It was because he was too idle that he gradually became decadent and got into gambling. If he has a serious job and is busy every day, he will stay away from the gambling environment. This is just like when we watch TV series. Once you start watching the first or second episode, you will want to continue watching. The same is true for gambling. If you don’t play, you won’t want to play! Focus on your work every day, and gradually relax your mind.

Method three, give him "political lessons" when you have time. In order to make my cousin change his mind, we are a family. Anyone who goes to his house will say a few words to him and give him some advice. , telling him how addictive gambling is, what's wrong with it, how many people ended up with their families and families destroyed because of gambling, etc., which made him slowly realize the dangers of gambling, and he took the initiative to correct it.

The fourth method is to let him stop contacting those foxy friends. He gradually stopped playing and stopped going to the casino. However, his gambling friends would often call him, and some even came to see him at home and took him to the casino to play, so he had to give these , the so-called friends are completely broken. The old saying from ancient times is correct, birds of a feather flock together, follow good people and learn from good people, and follow bad people to do bad things. He stopped interacting with those people. Gradually, he started to make new friends and have a new circle of friends. Like normal friends, he usually chatted, went out for dinner, went for runs and so on. In this way, he life has returned to normal.

Through our efforts, these methods have had obvious results. Now my cousin is no longer a gambler. Now he is also a positive and ambitious young man. He also regrets that he was obsessed with gambling. gamble.

I hope those friends who love gambling will wake up quickly and don’t wait until the mistake is irreversible to realize that they are wrong. Only by waking up in time can you have a better life.
