good values, teach your kid anything and everything but not gambling. This statement alone shows what a moron and loser you are. Bad enough you have this habit but you want to perpetuate it in your family to bring more misery. God are you stupid.

[CanuckG]

Give the girl up for adoption maybe two sane parents will take care of her

[dante1]

Are all crazy right wing bastards crazy with every portion of their lives? No gnu that little girl should be taken away from you. Six years old and you are... You are just an asshole and deserve a punch in the face and this is coming from a guy who almost never gets physical. But, somebody should punch your lights out. fvking retard.

Geez, you are a preachy little piece of fecal matter, aren't you (not sure what the auto edit will allow)? Didn't realize I was posting on an old women's sewing club by mistake. Especially for someone who is happy to support a White House leader who gladly gives blow jobs in the back of a limousine.

tsk tsk.

Learn some parenting skills handjob. No wonder you are crazy conservative you don't have the brains to understand a progressive society. Not only do you teach your little kid but you advertise it on a forum.
God damn stupid bastard. I think one of the tires on your house trailer is flat. Scum bag idiot.

Do you wash that mouth before you speak in front of your kids, oh super parent?

Assuming I have a six year old girl and let her watch me play a hand of cards on the internet in legal legitimate way, well that's terrible. Yet if she were to learn your way of life of banging young men in a bathhouse between huffs out of a crackpipe; then to not let her appreciate that means I don't understand a progressive society.

The fact that you would even use the term "progressive society" makes me bend over laughing at what an indoctrinated cretin you are.

[dante1]

You said you are teaching your daughter to be an expert gambler. So much wrong with this statement. First how are you going to teach anything--you are an idiot.
Second, teaching a 6 year old anything about gambling is close to child abuse.
Third, you are stupid enough to tell us about it.
Fourth, even if you are teaching her how will she be an expert when you are clueless about everything.

I wish your wife kicks you in the balls, if you have any. Grow up you pos and learn how to do right by your daughter. Next you will be telling us you are watching gay porn with your teen age son. What a hand job you are.

Second. Well, no need to explain further. You are too obtuse to understand anyway.

Third, go "penetrate" yourself, and your mother is an "oyster."

Keep bumping your shame up, God are you stupid!

My shame?

My daughter will be a proud well versed young woman able to kick any man's ass at a poker table, understand hitting or standing with a 12 against a dealer's 2, and why never to buy a lottery ticket unless she wants to just blow a buck for kicks.

Honestly, I don't know why I should explain anything to you. I post on a lot of forums, and most of the "excrement" posted here isn't to be taken seriously anyway.

But thanks. I'm still laughing at your "progressive society" crap.

great parenting, she will be turning tricks by age of 15

[dante1]

and you're proud of that...

this guy is truly stupid, he doesn't even realize what he did wrong. I can stand almost anything, I really can but like most of you when it comes to kids being treated improperly I like you get crazy. This moron shroud have a vasectomy, well actually he should have had one years ago.

hey no gnu you are a fckin moron.

well versed in gambling, you idiot. Well versed means being able to speak a bunch of foreign languages, well versed means having a college education in a field that will bring her a good salary and respect from the community, well versed means an understanding of correct PARENTING. Well versed means very little about gambling and if you think being well versed means knowing when to hit and stick in black jack you are even dumber than I thought.

I am sorry to say this kid hasn't much of a chance with an idiot for a father. Shame on you, you moron.

[ChalkyDog]

Teaching your kids how to gamble correctly is a must. Otherwise, these same kids will end up bellying up to a blackjack table, and not sit down on third base if it was open, then proceed to buy insurance, and stand on an 11.

Same uneducated kid might start yelling 7 at a craps table.

Listen, I love guns, and plan on teaching my kids everything I know about guns by the time they are 9. God forbid they stumble across a loaded firearm and not know what to do with it.

Be a good parent, teach your children.

[milwaukee mike]

to all you guys being critical of teaching children the ins and outs of gambling -
if you think gambling is so horrible then why are you on a gambling forum?

isn't it better to teach kids about this stuff rather than have them think it is the "forbidden fruit" (drinking, cigarettes, etc) and then go apeshit with it?

places like france where drinking is no big deal for children have nowhere near the binge drinking/drunk driving problems that the u.s. has

she is 6, most of us know gambling is a losing proposition. She is very susceptible to everything now, he is setting the stage for serious problems. I have been around gamblers all my life and I don't want my kids around them, I protected them from gambling and none of them have this stupid habit.

Teach her Math.

If she understands that, she will understand the difference between a gamble and a position.

Best of luck.

i see your point, i really do. but an addictive personality/gene will find drinking, gambling, etc whether you show it to them or not. my dad was very anti-gambling and it didn't matter

[ChalkyDog]

The other approach is to shelter your child, with the flawed belief that you are shielding them from something - in this case gambling.

Being educated on a subject is the best possible scenario, always - regardless of subject.

Don't be that parent that shelters their kid to death, and then as soon as said kid arrives in college, realize there are differing opinions in life.

I agree, but think about this for a minute if you are a parent. You have 1000 different activities you can teach your 6 year old that are much more productive and much better than gambling. It is a stupid thing to teach to a kid. I made sure my children didn't even know about gambling because I know the possibility of a kid becoming a degenerate at an early age. Why risk that shit? It is stupid and close to child abuse.

Gambling is exciting, gambling is fun but we all know the chance of winning is very low. Why teach a skill to a kid that you know will almost always result in a losing way. Why teach your flesh and blood a game that might ruin their life. It is just stupid, and he is stupid.

shelters, the kid is 6 Chalky.

Meaning she has a 15 year head start on the rest of society.

this is true but you can only do so much kiddie stuff before you go insane.

some of the best times we have had are going to dogtracks/horsetracks, etc.

and on our trip to cinci/philly/ny we had 2 days in atlantic city. best part of the trip for me and the kids tolerated it.

the other day my daughter said "my favorite part of vacation was that breakfast on the beach" which i explained to them the casino gave us for 2 days because i played a little in the casino at trump plaza.

also explained to them the smart thing to do is play just enough to get the $100 in free food and hopefully only lose $50 or so in the process

Who could argue about this Chalky, my point is she is a baby. Wrong time to introduce this to a baby.

Yeah, my statement was a valence issue to the max.

6 years old, kid can't grasp that sesame street isn't real. Wouldn't be too worried about this shaping her world views.

However, I do give credence to your point. Time and place is an important factor. 6 years old might be young. God knows I wouldn't be teaching my kids about a lot of things at that age - gambling most likely included.

[Avenger]

This thread is surreal. Thank god I don't have children.

Is gambling really that evil?

True story: My family lived in Vegas when I was 2. I didn't know till much later that we moved because my dad was a compulsive gambler, the stoopid kind, that would gamble away his paycheck at slots.
He never gambled in front of me, and besides the occasional dime or so lost on family vacations, never knew he had a problem.

But I did know he was an alcoholic and compulsive spender, and general all-around idiot. It was the center of many a fight in my childhood home.

So fast forward 30 years, I picked up on his gambling habit (but not from him). But I'm not an alcoholic or compulsive spender. And I'm decent at gambling, never lose more than a few pennies here and there, and I never play slots.

Point of story: you can point your kids in the direction you want to go... but at the end of the day, their personalities, genetics, and life situations will factor in too.
Actually, I don't have a point. so I'll shut up now.
