What should my father do if he is unemployed and indulges in chess room all day?

People often suffer a blow, and when they can't stop living, they will be depressed and demoralized.

The most effective and direct way is for people around him to enlighten him.

We can hold a family meeting to discuss the current problems, and we can exchange our ideas and talk about dad's opinions and suggestions.

If you have difficulty in meeting, you can write a note to your father privately to encourage him, or put forward your views and hopes for him, or use your spare time to select some job advertisements suitable for your father for his reference. You can also choose to send him a text message secretly. After all, dad is the head of the family and often saves face. If you do this for him face to face, he will feel that his self-esteem is hurt, which is also the chief culprit of depression.

As long as he feels everyone's hope for him, the responsibility of the head of the family will be regained. Cheer up and get to work.

Act as soon as possible, sometimes it is even difficult to grasp the heart. Don't wait until your father has exhausted his fighting spirit and will and indulged in gambling. At that time, it will be even more difficult to help him build confidence.
