Hi. My brother n law and wife are in alot of debt due to my brother n laws gambling addiction. My brother n law spends just about every penny he earns at the casino and sometimes spends his wife’s money there too. Problem is, they have a 5 year old and a 2 year old who i pretty much take care of everyday because my brother in law and wife BOTH work 2 jobs each and they still can’t seem to pay there bills. Really, i almost feel like i’m practically raising these two kids and i feel like their parents are hurting them emotionally by not really being available for their children. Yes, they both work hard and feel like they need too to support their children, and i don’t question their unconditional love for their kids, but they’re never there. I really feel so bad for them and thats why i take charge of their children. I do get a little exausted though, especially because i have a 6 month old baby myself. Are they hurting their children?
