Wolverine is widely considered to be the father figure X-23 needs, but the mutant thief Gambit once proved that he’s the better mentor and parent to Laura, not Logan. Laura is, after all, Logan's biological daughter and inherited some of the X-Man’s violent tendencies. But one thing the original Wolverine could not pass down to his successor is an enjoyment of life's simple pleasures, something that Gambit helped her discover.
Having been raised within the cold and abusive confines of a lab, X-23 aka Laura Kinney was conditioned to be an efficient and unstoppable assassin. If not for the kindness of her mother Sarah Kinney, who worked as a geneticist at the Facility, she would have never escaped and joined the X-Men. She was then recruited to the black ops wetwork team X-Force, where she continued to kill but this time in the service of mutantkind.

She goes on a journey to find a life outside of killing and along the way is mentored by Gambit.
From the beginning, Gambit understands what X-23 needs more than Wolverine does. Logan claims that because violence is all Laura knows, she needs to refocus her violence towards something meaningful in order to find herself - hence her membership to X-Force. When Laura is taken under Gambit’s wing, however, Remy suggests that X-Force was just another prison that had the opposite effect of what Logan intended for her.
Wolverine, of course, does understand Laura in a way no one else does, as the two were both mutants weaponized against their will and forced to kill for nefarious purposes. Wolverine worked through his trauma over time by joining the X-Men, so it isn’t unreasonable for him to believe that the same path would work for Laura.
