[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 225013, member: 1991"] Something we did with our kids as soon as they were old enough - we took them to the casino and pointed out just ow the place was set up to lure gamblers in and make them feel that time is not passing. We went through all the tricks they use to keep you there - the cheapest food os on the casino floor, for example. We did talk to our kids about this, we can take difficult child 3 to the casino close enough to look in. That way he can see the lighting, the carpet, etc. As long as he can't see any machines... Then we told him how it's marketed and told him stories of people with problems gambling. I was raised Methodist - no gambling, no smoking, no alcohol. I still don't feel comfortable with the gambling or the smoking. And for health reasons I no longer drink, although husband taught me how to appreciate a good wine. Marg [/QUOTE]
