welcome to pc! i'm so glad you found us.
i'm sorry you have this concern for your family. gambling can be a compelling addiction, taking over and controlling people's lives, thier loved ones' lives, and their money. i liked what rhapsody suggested and have one more...are u still in school where u can talk with a guidance counselor? the counselor may have some good suggestions for you and also ways of dealing with this situation at home. i hope you will keep us posted on how you and your siblings are doing. we care about you and you do matter to us.
