Prevalence figures

• Estimate 0.6 children per person with a gambling problem (Australia)

• Conservative estimate: over 32,400 children in New Zealand living with a problem gambler potentially at risk of a variety of negative effects*

• 50‐70 % of people experiencing mental illness are parents (international)

• 9‐30% of AOD clients have GH issues and 25‐72% of clients experiencing GH have AOD issues (international)

Studies show that gambling harm can cause a number of difficulties in family functioning including:

• severe financial problems• emotional and psychological problems and abuse • relationship problems (partner and parent‐child) • and a negative impact on the psychological development of children

One person experiencing  gambling harm can affect 5 to 10 other people (Ministry of Health, 2010). 

There is growing concern that children may be more adversely affected as more women are developing gambling problems, especially through the use of ‘pokie machines’ (Darbyshire et al., 2001).

One in six New Zealanders say a family member has gone without something they needed or a bill has gone unpaid due to gambling. This percentage was higher

Children of parents experiencing gambling harm are more likely to:• Problematic AOD use• Experience anxiety and depression and  eating disorders

• Have trouble sleeping• Experience asthma, allergies and gastrointestinal disorders

• Experience their own gambling problems in later life

Family violence

• Domestic Violence as a coexisting condition to gambling harm offers insight into the potential impact on the children

• Research indicates that children may be subjected to displaced violence from both the gambler and the non‐problem gambler

• Childhood maltreatment is prevalent in gamblers experiencing harm, especially female gamblers

• The addition of substance problems and mental health disorders increase risk for family violence

Family violence in a sampleof treatment‐seeking gamblers: the effect of having dependent children 

• The relationship between having dependent children and being a victim of family violence was gender‐related. 

• Female gamblers living with dependent children reported more family violence perpetration and victimisation than male gamblers living with dependent children. 

• The implications of this finding are that children living in homes where the mother is a gambler, have a higher risk of living in a household within which family violence is occurring, increasing their vulnerability to poorer health outcomes.
