This was the topic of discussion amongst my friends. The opinions were split and very strong. Some argued that gambling is meant to be done when kids are not around. They should never see you spinning on slots or being dealt a poker hand. Some felt that there was nothing to hide. As long as it's done in moderation and children are not neglected, there's no reason to shelter them from your innocent fun.
The fathers involved in the discussion felt that mothers should be more discreet.
For me, it's scary if a child says "mommy or daddy gambled all day" when asked how the weekend was but I stay out of these discussions. They always turn into arguments and the couples end up storming off. I just pull out my laptop and play a game of bingo while they discuss.
