Yes, my dog is sticking her tongue out at me.
What else is new?
She thought it wasn’t a good idea to teach my kids how to gamble.
In my defense, the game we started out playing had instructions.
A friendly game of poker seemed like so much more fun.
We had cards. We had chips.
It seemed logical.
What better way to teach that gambling is bad?
Some of us (me) learned that gambling is very, very bad.
My kids learned that gambling is REALLY, REALLY fun.
And that is just one example of how I’m a bad mother.

Have a GREAT weekend.

On the contrary you’ve taught your daughters a very important lesson: only gamble with Mom.
If you really want to teach your daughters not to gamble just show them pictures of Las Vegas and point out that those hotels weren’t built by gamblers. They were built to bring in gamblers.
Tell the girls that Kody Brown and his four wives live in Las Vegas. =)
As long as you’re using poker chips (or pennies, or candy, or cheese puffs) I don’t see any problem – besides, have you seen how much money the top gamblers make these days?
Watch out when your girls start using real money to play
