I don’t know what the correct phrases are etc.
I just know for myself, I lost both my parents over the past few years and all I wanted to do was run away from reality.
This led to me gambling probably more than usual – trying to blot out the hurt?
Perhaps if you could see if your nephew would talk to someone at G/H it might help?
