However, my mother in law has a big gambling problem and it has come to the point where she has started lying to the family about where her money goes. This has caused a major headace for me because I am now the one stuck supporting her.
Does anyone else have any problems like this with their family members?

Well, with an ex family member. My ex lost everything including the respect of his daughter. He has been barred from our local casino. He was in Real Estate Sales until his gambling led to intermingling moneys. I hadn't talked to him for over 20 years, but he took it upon himself to call me and ask to borrow $1,000 to save his business, yeh, sure. Like I wanted to get involved. My present husband about blew the roof off. Nobody, including his sister and our daughter has heard from him in over a year.
Last we heard the police were looking for him. He must still be alive somewhere or somebody would have contacted his sister or daughter by now. It is such a shame that gambling can get to people to this extent, isn't it?
