Gambling Addiction?

Question by Debra: Gambling addiction?
Has anyone out there ever dealt with someone who has a gambling addiction? If so, what can I do to help this problem stay in the past? What can I do to help if anything?
I just re-read my question NUTE and I don’t see where I said it was me. It’s my husband who has the problem.
I have taken away the money. He is now getting loans. I just found out about one that is for 3000 dollars. He’s such a great guy. This is his only hang-up. He’s a great dad and he’s always been good to me until this gambling started.
