You shouldn't coddle or pity people because they lack self control. I don't feel sorry for anyone who destroys their life because of gambling, or drugs or alcohol for that matter, this is their problem.

Just my opinion.
If it were just them, I'd agree. Unfortunately they often times have families. If they want to ruin thier own lives, that's their business, but when there and kids involved it's a different story.
