After discussing this topic with my parents, I have found out that they feel that 'Buying lottery tickets is just a means of earning some money. Hence, they purchase them'.
Ultimately, I condemn lottery in Singapore. Lottery is a form of gambling. Even if you have a lot of luck, it is just a false sense of hope. This bogus satisfaction is the gratification of winning the lottery.
Just like any other forms of gambling, be it poker or mahjong, it only gives you the desire to earn more money. It is just an instant pleasure. It will only cause your fingers to get burnt. Earning money is one thing. Playing it time and again is another.
If you buy lottery for the first time and won a small sum of money, the thought in the mind is that you will earn more money. If that is the case, it is sheer luck. Gambling only brings you a moment of esctasy. In the end, you will lose it all.
The worst scenario is a a family breakout. That is the worst. However, exercising self-control while gambling is a situation that is close to zero. Hence, the best choice of action is to never touch it.
Henceforth, I have chosen to condemn this form, as well as all other forms, of gambling.

Hi Yee Hark,
How might gambling cause trouble within a family? How might the actions of a gambler affect his/her family members?
