We live close to the best place to gamble in the nation. Problem is my husband likes it too much. Now that football is in full swing he is constantly hitting casinos at least 4 times a week.
But its not the money that's the problem. It's the lack of time he's spending with me and our baby. He gambles a lot but I don't think that's the problem. It's more that he puts gambling ahead of his family. Even when he's home with us, he's on the computer working on his fantasy leagues.
The first year was ok. He paid more attention to me. Now, I think the novelty of our marriage has worn off and he isn't the greatest dad when it comes down to it. Rarely pays attention to him. I can understand that and hope he changes sometime in the future, but that change won't happen unless he quits or at least cuts back on this habit. He's ruining us.

This isn't a year round thing. I gamble only on football - both college and pro. I used to play and I love the game. I just really get into it.
This is my only vice. I rarely drink. I don't go out. The only time I do go out is to games to San Fran when I get tickets. That is maybe 2-3 times a season and I'll be gone a few days.
She is going overboard. I spend max 4 hours a week on fantasy football. That's all. But I'm not absent from their lives. I do admit I'm not the closest father to my baby but I think it's the way I was brought up. I'm trying.
I just want a little space this time of year...is that too much to ask?
