Hi Logic
You are answering your own question which is great. If he is buying something with money that you know comes from a ‘gamble’ then in effect you would be validating his behaviour. A polite ‘no thank you – I can’t/will not accept a present made possible by gambling’ would be enough. I think of it in terms of refusing the addiction – not the thought behind the gift, hope that makes sense.
I’m really pleased you both had a really good time – good times without gambling are important for a CG to have in his memory bank and especially important for your welfare.
I am a bit erratic at the moment due to bereavement but I do read the forum every day and you are doing well.
