One day a mother gave her son 5$ to go buy milk for her 2 year old daughter. When the boy went to the store he didn't buy milk, he bought a scratch ticket and he only got 2$ back and he couldn’t afford milk. So day by day the little girl got very sick because she didn't have her milk until one day the little girl died. The reason why the lottery is bad is because you waste lots of money, you can get addicted to lottery tickets almost like doing drugs, and it's a form a gambling. When you first buy a ticket you aren't getting any money back for example, if you buy a 5$ ticket and you might only win back 2$, you just wasted 3$ on nothing. And if you constantly keep buying them you waste too much money, money you could be spending on food
