Title: Gambling Exposed to children
Post by: worldofcoins on July 29, 2021, 04:25:12 PM
These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

because it is already under internal influence, Youtube is generally free to be accessed by anyone. Due to its very broad nature with access, anyone can watch the videos that appear on the homepage.
As for children who try to gamble because of the impact of what they watch, the most important thing is the role of parents to continue to control and educate their children. And can monitor the daily life of children in using their gadgets.

the only way that this will stop is if all the social platform or streaming platform prohibits their users or content creator from advertising any type of gambling sites or if the government prohibit gambling site advertisement altogether. until that happens you'll continue seeing them. the content creators that advertise gambling sites don't really care if their audience became addicted to gambling or not. all they care about is that advertising these gambling platforms will earn them some easy bucks.

this is why we have to watch over our children, i don't have children yet but I have a neighbor whose children use school money to play gambling.  now is the era of the internet and we have to control what our children open on their smartphones.

We are already living in a world where information spreads fast and through various mediums. You cannot really prevent them from reaching your kid or any young relative. We cannot expect them to follow what we say that "gambling is bad" too.

...I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
What about when they are at home? Don't you often see adults playing cards in social gatherings?

Obviously they will fall into addiction slowly. However, the social medias and online games becoming a fantasy world for kids as well. The games for kids are set up in a way that they have to earn points and play with it. The points can be even bought paying money online. Obviously its the responsibility of the parents to monitor and teach their children what's really necessary and what not. I always, keep an eye on my son who is just 5 years old. He loves to play games, but I divert him to see hymns or I engage him on physical games. Its really challenging.

Of course the advertising business will not stop advertising that has big payouts, regardless of their impact on the environment. It is very difficult to prevent content creators who frequently broadcast live gambling on social media. Because it's public.

It's not only the OP who is worried about shows that are inappropriate for children to watch, who are still in the realm of imitating what adults do. Because we, as adults, will strictly prohibit those who are underage from watching, let alone trying to gamble.

I'm not saying streamer is a fault too.

But, IMO casino is also fault because not asking "KYC" at the time they're registered to the website. Gambling and casino is 18+ but to prevent under age playing the only way to solve this problem is, the casino should ask "KYC" before they can deposit or even play. That's the only way to solved this from my perspective, even streamer/youtuber make a restriction age for the content.

Sometime your kids more smart enough to find the solution ~XD If you want to prevent kids gambling, the casino should be asking "KYC" at the time they're register not after they're playing or even deposit.

[...]

Children think so much in "immediately", unlike adults who plan for the future and are in the habit of saving (not all), the littles try to satisfy their desires as soon as possible, and these "illusory" videos of multiplying something by 1000x or more are a "full plate" for they.

Youtubers and Streamers saw gambling as a way to absurdly increasing their views with the "foolproof tactics" of making money, is something that everyone looks for, especially children who earn a small allowance.

I think it's wrong, for sure, but unfortunately, there's no way to ban it and the controls that exist today on the internet are very precarious.

Advertising can't be stopped because this is a business for sure, all marketing will be entered everywhere, including a stream that has been sponsored and is a testimony of children when watching the video, this cannot be avoided because children's concerns about gambling are certain there is a desire to enter her and become addicted.

One thing that can be controlled is that parents if they are underage and we know that many games have become addicted because of the booming trend, then there can also be gambling that sees it, after imagining it, they will definitely try to place a bet. .

I'd replace that Sometimes with Mostofthetime, From what I've seen people (when they grow old) become slow, and their ability to learn new things degrades compared to what it was in their youth.

Many people wouldn't play on certain casinos if they started asking for KYC, on the other hand, what stops these children from using the ID of their parents for the KYC.

Children gambling should no way be encouraged because it exposes them to illicit acts, they would try to get money by every means including stealing it to play gambling. I guess there should be restrictions from the online betting companies against children so that if they are underaged they will be denied access. The parents too will have a major role to play to discourage their children against early gambling. Early gambling is the fastest way to become an addict and other hard life.

I think it's unrealistic to protect children from gambling. Almost every child who spends his free time with his peers at least once in his life has played money in a card game and it's not about upbringing. The point is that each of us gets our own life experience, regardless of whether it's good or bad.

At the start of the registration tab, there is a checklist box of consent to agree that you are above 18 years old. That means if you had created an account that means you have agreed on their terms and you are above 18 years old. In a crypto casino, the site will not be able to check this because they wont ask for your KYC but in most licensed fiat casino they will ask for verification when you want to withdraw

Notice the sentence that was underlined? The key point is consent. It doesnt matter if you are below 18 years old, as long as you have consented by creating an account that means its out of anyone's responsibility

Think about this.

- Government doesn't ban cigarettes because it profits them and disregarding people dying from cancer.
- Government controls what is shown on TV and what I've seen - There are Gambling Ads, Tobacco ads and kids watch that, TV also uses a certain frequency to appeal to what's shown on the TV to certain parts of your brain, but they never tell you this.

Most of the people live to feel good, there's no problem in that - But when they Knowingly promote retarded stuff to an underage audience by showing off their achievements then what impression will it give to those kids? --- The People promoting this stuff are popular and rich and since they're promoting this stuff then it must be real. Rest is History.

Its up to every parent and guardians to guide their kids and children against gambling children should be discouraged to desist from gambling its a pity YouTube didn't place a warnings and dangers of children being expose and  endeared to gambling unfortunately there is no regulations of most of those advert against kids thus  parent and guardians has a big role to play and to take up the challenge of ensuring that any gambling related advert that can jeopardize their wellbeing and future is curtailed at that moment until they attain the minimum age requirement for gambling and at least most finish and earn some academic certificates.

Of course this is what happened but at least we can control our children's online activities...

I have always been a friend to my son and asked him slowly what he was doing today, gambling advertisements made me worried, children have high curiosity, I am very afraid that they will fall into the online gambling trap.

Then what is your suggestion?

There is no single solution anymore, you're just getting an absolute no-sense answer + not solved the problem! KYC first before you can play or even deposit is the only solution for this problem, they using ID parent or other people's ID? is simple just need to add one more rule "KYC" while you need to picture yourself with the "ID" to make sure the id belongs to the person. This also to prevent someone using people ID.

If the kids ask to their parents for doing photos by holding an "ID" then they will have some suspicious with their kids. People hate KYC? come one even you can withdraw without "KYC" on every TOS/T&C (If you read off course) there always has some situation casino will ask you doing "KYC".

This is why a lot of Twitch streamers are calling out some other big names in the streaming industry to not promote gambling platforms or any games associated with gambling to their audiences, especially since these streamers have a lot of followers that are minors and can obviously not filter who can watch their ads/content that has some elements of gambling to it. Then again, you really can't assume full control on this industry because this is how streamers are making their money, and being ethical won't really put some food on their tables.

It's really up to the parents of the children to monitor and keep their kids away from gambling, if possible. That's the only way to not get the kids addicted to gambling at an early age.

Frankly it is shameful that regulators around the world, who will often have strong regulation banning gambling adverts from TV or other media, have fallen asleep at the wheel when it comes to social media. You can guarantee that many of these so-called "influencers" will sell out to anyone who will pay them a buck and will advertise anything they can get away with. Crypto-related advertising can go especially unnoticed because it is often unregulated as governments work at a very slow pace - they are barely putting in changes to cope with the advent of the internet. It must be much tougher growing up now and exposed to all these people online that have become the new role models who can be very sneaky for their own financial benefit, it's a real shame - some examples need to be made of these false representations that rarely mention getting paid to advertise.

And this is where parenting do really matter because once you do able to orient or make your child realized or to be aware on whats the harmful effect of gambling then it wont really be that much of a problem because its really impossible for you to monitor your child 24/7 where due to this digital age then accessibility on those ads and sites wouldn't really be a problem.

At a very young age they could really potentially engage nor experienced those things which aren't supposed to be experienced by a minor.

Good parenting is the key on giving out awareness into your sons and daughters.

I of course don’t think that children should be allowed to gamble, bud I don’t think it’s all that huge of a deal if they are exposed or I guess I should say indirectly exposed to it. I think as for most things it comes down to parenting. If you properly educate your children on this kind of stuff it shouldn’t be that big if a deal if they are exposed to it.

The thing is the platform of youtube is very vast and many in the younger age group can sure access it without parental consent, that is why there are youtube for kids so parents would know that their children are safe with things that are not really for the younger age, I really think that the parent provision is really needed so their child wouldn't be exposed to all sort of gambling paraphernalia,

But linking online gambling sites or Sportsbet is prohibited to be posted on youtube but what about people who are teaching tutorials on accessing these sites, but I guess youtube is already on the move in taking action with that said account, but I don't know about twitch, but for me, I think parents should always have a watchful eye in what their children are watching parental guidance is sure needed.

Sometimes it can be dangerous, and some young people that become addicted even go as far as spending scholarships and money they receive from parents to pay for colledge on gambling. But I don't think that avoiding ads is a way out. Young people are exposed to many things that are way more addictive and accessible, such as cigarretes and alcohol, I think that should rather be the subject of worrying.

And the way to solve the problem lies in education. Parents should have talks with their children and discuss such things, but not in a way "it's dangerous, don't even think about it", but rather "it's possible that you're not ready for this yet and this can be bad for you".

There shouldn't be any excuse as to why children are being exposed to gambling, however if we are to consider the facts at hand, most of these streamers at YouTube or twitch who showcase gambling sites as their sponsors are tagged for viewers over the age of 15. So the question has to be asked, why are minors that are below that age limit allowed to watch the streams and be exposed themselves to gambling, at least without adult supervision? I believe twitch and YouTube should impose stricter rules on their site, not their content creators because as long as they do not upload anything that is not safe for work, their content should be greenlit and should be allowed to be broadcast on their site with appropriate parameters to ensure that only people beyond that age limit can see it.
The thing is the platform of youtube is very vast and many in the younger age group can sure access it without parental consent, that is why there are youtube for kids so parents would know that their children are safe with things that are not really for the younger age, I really think that the parent provision is really needed so their child wouldn't be exposed to all sort of gambling paraphernalia,

I would agree with you. The fact is the content will always be there for everyone potentially to see, but with enough supervision from the parents and a much more active approach from these platforms, there wouldn't be cases where children are exposed to videos or streams that weren't suitable for younger audiences.

^ I definitely agree with you, we can not blame social media like Youtube because that is a part of their marketing strategy, so the best part here is the parent should always watching parental guidance for their children and avoid possible involvement in gambling. There is nothing wrong if they are aware of gambling as long as they will not be under influence of it and start to gamble on their own. I don't know how youtube filters their video, but I think it is good for them if they will not allow to 18 years old below to see a gambling video.

I have been seeing the same and I am not liking this one bit, I am not against people gambling but people need to have the appropriate understanding of what they are doing and someone that is so young is probably not going to have the necessary self-control to stop once they begin to lose money.

It is because of this that we need to always talk to the kids and teenagers about what they are doing online as they could think gambling is a great way to make easy money when we know this is not really the case.

Done responsibly, gambling could represent a good introduction to money management for children. Due to its similarity to investing and trading.

Managing risk is not only a valuable skill for gambling. It can also apply to other areas of life. I suspect many do not consider money management practices until they get older. Learning from a young age and being exposed to atmospheres like gambling does carry a potential to learn critical thinking and begin setting positive life habits.

Many youth are already exposed to video game loot boxes. But loot boxes are more a scam than they are real gambling IMO. Losing is coded into the loot box algorithm. Gambling could be a step up from that. At least then they might have a clean shot at winning.

And how do you propose to solve this problem? Modern schoolchildren are in the same information space as adults. You cannot shield them from the flow of information (and the age policy of YouTube, Twitch and other services is also unable to do this). Perhaps children should be warned about the dangers of gambling at school, and of course, first of all, they should receive an appropriate warning from their parents. In general, I think that we can warn children about the danger, but it is unrealistic to completely protect them from gambling opportunities.

The gambling industry have a huge market and the government benefits from it. I doubt they'll prohibit its advertisements because there are children being exposed to it. you can't expect other people to always keep your child Innocent or safe. it's either you teach them about the dangers of it or you let them figure it out themselves.

Not only gambling but there are Youtubers who are promoting porn sites, not even a warning from Youtube can stop kids from tuning on these channels it's a free site and only warning that you need to be 18 years these channels can show to their visitors, kids need parental guidance on what they see on the internet they need to be guided what to see and follow, if they are left on their own they can easily fall to this trap, Youtube is the introduction on so many things and parents should be the one to guide them what are rights for their kids when they come who and what to follow online.

Making your children be aware about the risk on doing gambling and once they are aware on what then they would surely able to avoid it but still this do talks about good parenting and same as others said

that we wont able to check our children from time to time and we know that everything is connected to internet and this is why i dont issue some mobile phone into my children and i dont let them exposed too

much when they are on personal computer because i dont really like for them to see about those ads which are related not only in gambling but also in other things online which could end up a bad influence
to our child.

Gambling content is included in the adult category. if there is still an underage who sees content like that, it means that he himself is the one to find out. and nothing can limit someone from finding out what he wants to know on the internet. unless there is gambling content that all ages can see and promoted everywhere. this happens on several platforms such as facebook and tiktok a lot of gambling content that just becomes a recommendation that makes other people interested in trying it. can't blame the streamer or viewer. but only blame the platform that cannot limit these thing optimally.

Another way of dealing with stuffs like this is for casino and bookmakers to implement KYC from the onset. While this would limit the amount of minors that patronize gambling platforms, it would be a big turn-off because not everyone is happy about sharing their information to third parties. That said, I'm of the same opinion as you - parents and guardians should endeavour to give their kids and wards proper education about gambling, the risks and every other thing without leaving any details. With all the facts, there's only a small percentage that would push through with it until they've reached an age where they can make such decisions by themselves.

Like the saying goes - "Charity begins at home".

Children don't have money to gamble. They can watch videos, lives and even sign up at a casino platform, but it will be useless without money anyway. Parents just need to be careful with their credit cards and crypto currency wallets, because there are some cases of children who used parents' credit cards to purchase in game items without permission. So I don't doubt a son of a crypto gambler could do the same thing using the coins of his father in order to gamble.

Another point to notice is that when a kid is too worried about gambling and earning money it's because something is missing in their house, because it's definitely not a normal thought for a kid. Kids should keep their minds busy with another kinds of ideas and activities. Parents must also guide their children this way, to make them stop thinking about stuff that don't belong to their stage of life.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.
Who do you think should be blamed over here? The streaming platform, the streamers or the casino? Shouldn't the streaming platform be more responsible over here? Should they restrict kids from viewing those? Or maybe kids shouldn't be browsing the internet or watch stream without an adult present. It's the responsibility of the parents to make sure they know what their kids are looking at or where they are going. You can't blame the casino or the streamers over here.

Children don't have money to gamble. They can watch videos, lives and even sign up at a casino platform, but it will be useless without money anyway. Parents just need to be careful with their credit cards and crypto currency wallets, because there are some cases of children who used parents' credit cards to purchase in game items without permission. So I don't doubt a son of a crypto gambler could do the same thing using the coins of his father in order to gamble.
Well I have the same with this thought, --children don't have money to gamble but they can watch it, at that young age, they even don't know how to pay online, but parents should always take care of their bank account and avoid not linked to their child device. Just like what happened here in my country, there is a couple who had lost thousands of money in our local currency because of their sons purchasing online games, they did not know that it was linked to their bank account and it was automatically deducted once it was successfully purchased from google. The same on gambling, we should keep our bank account safe since they don't have money, they can not able gamble even though they can watch the video, --but still they need parental advice and as long as possible parents should monitor what they watch.

Youtube have their own restrictions about the age of the viewers, if he is a responsible streamer he should restrict his content to legal age only and not to Children. Gambling is too much for them, even if they have no money but if they see a too good to be true offer, that children might do everything just to get the money, that’s alarming already. If you have child, better to guide them properly and let them understand the risk of wasting money in gambling.

With the technology that we have right now, Children can expose to anything as long as he holds his own gadget and you don’t normally monitor their activities for sure their curiosity will bring them into bad places. That streamer should aware of this, he should now just share a content that can harm anyone, if report system works in Youtube, better to report them.

Gambling content is included in the adult category. if there is still an underage who sees content like that, it means that he himself is the one to find out. and nothing can limit someone from finding out what he wants to know on the internet. unless there is gambling content that all ages can see and promoted everywhere. this happens on several platforms such as facebook and tiktok a lot of gambling content that just becomes a recommendation that makes other people interested in trying it. can't blame the streamer or viewer. but only blame the platform that cannot limit these thing optimally.


With its easy access to the internet, not only positive things are obtained, but negative things finally happen. Which is now the promotion of gambling
content, there are various social media, which finally can be seen by children. Some children must be curious about what they have seen and of course
want to try it. Here I think it is wiser not to blame anyone for this, and my solution is more to parents who have to limit their children from accessing
the internet. So don't let our children access the internet for too long, then parents are more careful to keep their money so that their children don't take
them to play gambling. Don't forget to regularly check the internet history that their children have seen, the last thing parents have to do is educate
their children about gambling. Explain to their children that they are not allowed to play gambling before they grow up, because it is not good for children.
The key is how parents supervise children's activities.

They'll get the money to gamble from their parents, they'll look for a way to cash it in and then so that they can gamble with their parents' money. These influencers should always put a disclaimer that the young viewers that they have shouldn't gamble since they have no money to gamble and teach them to be responsible first before trying anything crazy that they have on their minds like the perfect example of thinking that you can make 10x or more.

In this case, it is really important to instill with your kids the importance of money and the effect of gambling. Even at early age, they need to know about the possible consequences, so when they finally encounter it via their peers or online search, they already know what to do.

There is nothing like the web for the young and information is accessible to everyone not minding the age. This gambling sites/apps are actually promoting their business so you wouldn't hold them responsible for children's abuse of the web rather you should channel the responsibility on the parents who is supposed to guide their children on what to do with the web as well as educate them on sensitive areas of life in which gambling is one of such.

Yes, situations like this are happening often because children have access to mobile devices and computers with internet access since a very early age. Furthermore parents let their children alone with these devices for long hours daily playing games which display premium offers all the time during the gameplay. It's just a matter of time until these children click the offer and finish the purchase.
The same happened in my country: a kid of about 8 years ago managed to take his mother's credit card and spent some bucks in an online game. The amount was about 40$ only, but still a considerable amount for a poor family. After being caught, they made a video where he apologized while crying and said he would work to pay his mother back. This is just one example that became really popular on social medias, but there are many other cases.

The internet is dangerous and open for all. If you are a parent, you can limit the exposure of your kid using a google account logged to his youtube account. I did this to my kid's phone. There are still some videos that are for the adult that streams on her. Can't do anything about it but just monitor what she does and talk to her about it.
You just have to make your kid open to you that they share things with you so that you can advise them.

I know and I've seen many streamers and content creators around social media platforms that are promoting a gambling site particularly online sites. Now that we are in an era where technology and internet is a necessity already, its on the parent whether they will do something to not let their kids to gamble.

Yes, it boils down on the parent themselves as they should monitor their children with their online activity. As I parent, I am alarm by it, I have teenagers already, so I closely check the websites they go and if they play online games I limit them. Specially if they have scheduled online schools the next day. So for me the parents should be on top of the situation to even remind their kids not to gamble if they see some ads or banner being promoted in Youtube.

Even so, not all children will think the same because when they try several times but the result is a loss, then I still believe they will leave gambling. But indeed, when they get a win after a few tries then it is very likely they will continue to chase big wins. When children get something new, their parents must find out and not take an indifferent attitude, because children are still under the supervision of their parents, their children's activities should be of more concern to their parents as well.

This is the price we have to pay if you are not going to check what your children are doing and surfing online, the web is huge and it open to all portals you should guide and explain to your children the many risks and if possible if you have a good anti-virus that can restrict sites then use it and always check sites your children are surfing through their surf history.

Agreed, it should be the parents' responsibility to inform or educate their children about the risks and dangers of the internet, as we all know that most children are already casually browsing the internet and are curious. I remember seeing on social media (this isn't gambling related, but it's close) a kid using his father's credit card to buy a lot of virtual items, and the kid thought it was fine. There are many temptations online to which the child may succumb, so parents should guide them.

This is a problem not only with gambling. It's also a problem with porn, for example. The age at which they usually see porn for the first time is around 11-12 years old. And porn today is not like porn 30 years ago. They can watch very violent porn at the click of a button.

The problem is access to the internet from a very early age, which I'm not saying they shouldn't have it, because it's a very useful learning tool as well. But the internet is like the world, it is full of dangers too.

Well, it falls to two parties to be responsible for that, the streaming platform and the parents. The internet is generally free for everyone to access, even kids, so it's up to parents to manage and handle how their kids access the net. Hard, yes, but there's nothing that can be done imo. As for the streaming platforms, well, just like the internet, is generally free, but sometimes they put restrictions depending on the info of what their AI thinks the age of the user is (or the age of the account). It auto filters stuff and the like, though it can still be bypassed quite easily if one really wanted to.

In the end, I won't really blame the influencers and whatnot for wanting to advertise casinos or gambling sites, it's kind of like a job after all.

You guys all tried gambling for the first time sooner or later, and I think most of you had your first gambling experience long before you were of age. Every parent should ask their child what they are doing on the Internet and you can always view their activity history in your browser or put a restriction on watching Youtube which will prevent very young children from being exposed to gambling advertisements.

Hmm I do agree with your point as there must be a line to draw on which projects to promote.

The problem with most YouTubers is that their influence is so huge that most of their subscribers are underaged children. In addition, if they try to promote a gambling website (which provides them revenue in return), children would be exposed to gambling which gives the latter the curiosity to try them. This is actually a dilemma on both sides in which I have no clue on how to balance them.

Unfortunately is a line for setting what is moral and not which is also going to disturb democracy or somewhat like the freedom of speech of someone to which the platforms like youtube had also allowed.

Whenever it is about a topic with children, it is very delicate, in my case my 6-year-old son sees me many times when I play, and many times when I play the slot machine I let him give it a few clicks and it is under my guidance when he does.

What should not be allowed is that they themselves enter the platforms, register and start playing by themselves, not only because of games of chance, that is the least dangerous, the most dangerous is that they can access sites where they should not enter, such as sites for adults, who enter chats, that is why if you have children, you have to be with them supervising them when they enter the computers. I think it is the responsibility of parents to supervise their children.

Parents have an active important role in controlling their children, both outside and inside, nowadays parents have to work hard and take full control because the internet is entering remote villages.

I have seen many minors who are involved in online gambling and games, which are based on real bets or just for fun, however, if parents keep their children free in internet affairs, slowly in the future many children will fall into the verge of misguidance, stealing, crime, and so on.

For that all need anticipation in this matter, children are involved in online gambling for good in the future.

I think just getting YouTube to write a warning when using gambling sites is not enough.  The issue of access for children and adolescents to gambling sites is too serious from the point of view of upbringing and developing a personality, that one cannot do without the participation of regulation by the laws of the state or even global organizations that form generally accepted norms.  
And without serious punitive measures in relation to sites and utubers, you cannot cope with the problem either.  
And such measures should be established by legislators.

Read the YouTube TOS.
https://www.youtube.com/static?template=terms (https://www.youtube.com/static?template=terms)
You cannot get rid of these content just because there are minors using the app. It is always gonna be the parents responsibility to look for their children.

Kids on school or playing with his friend, they also unconsciously they're betting but not directly to money! like, I dare you if you do this then I will buy you this and if you can't do it or lose you need to buy these. That's is also one of unconsciously the kids betting but without money.

Is not enough! If you told the kids they still want to discover that.

The only way to prevent this is the casino act and policy while they asking "KYC" first for the account before the user can be play or deposit. This is the only solution, and absolutely effective.

Tell us what are the ways to avoid Youtube nowadays - the most effective one. None, right? Unless you are in a country that's prohibiting that website or living on a North Korean internet policy, that might be possible as viewers will face a legal sanction.

Regardless of the situation, you can't expect that young fellas won't be able to encounter anything about gambling even they don't have an access to Youtube. That's the reality and you can't change it.

If you are concern about young ones in your family and friend, then educate them. While outside, just hope that those young people don't like to do gambling, that's it.

I noticed this too, that big twitch streamers are now playing online casinos more and more during their streams and then afterwards upload videos of their biggest winnings on youtube. It is obvious that those streamers get paid by the online casinos to play on their platform to promote it that way, which i have to say is totally fine by the way because that is just how marketing works. It is also true though that a lot of children are watching this streams and that children are much more prone to be hooked by that promotions because they are just much more naive than adults, but in the end it is the responsibility of their parents to make sure they are not starting to gamble when they are 12 years old.
I mean every online casino is already telling you that you are only allowed to use their platform when you are 18 or older (or older than 21 depending on where you are from). I don't think you can ask more from the casinos.

Children into gambling needs to be avoided. The YouTube and other platforms used to have a gambling site promotion or a trading app promotion before the start of their content. It is truly misleading.

One of my friend too had a YouTube channel. Myself suggested not to promote such services. In most promotion, it is mentioned. You'll get free money of few dollars, and young people start to give a try. This will continue further with more deposits from pocket money. Sometime this can lead to crimes, when there is need for money and they don't have it.

It's true that is not good for children exposed to gambling at an early stage. They can't even find the money of their own, its going to be worse if they become addicted.

The big question is where they will get the money to play the gambling ? You cannot play gambling without money and in some cases, you cannot even make an account if you are a miner. So in case any child is playing gambling, then it is the fault of his/her parents who have allowed them to do so.

Most of the sites do allow you to play gambling without KYC and anyone can make an account to play. Secondly, parents may give pocket money to their children but don't monitor where that money is being spend by their children. Sometimes it is seen that children ask more money from parents for lunch and other activities in the school and misuse that money in gambling. So it is also sometime fault of the child addicted to gambling.

The big question is where they will get the money to play the gambling ? You cannot play gambling without money and in some cases, you cannot even make an account if you are a miner. So in case any child is playing gambling, then it is the fault of his/her parents who have allowed them to do so.

Any child (except for some rare exceptions) has pocket money for various purposes - to buy food, pay for public transport, etc. In addition, children have phones on which there is some kind of balance of funds. Some sites/games allow you to pay for various services directly from your phone balance. In general, virtually every child has access to money.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

As a rule, children should not be exposed to gambling, in fact, they should learn about it or play when they are of right age which is they can think and act responsibly and have a decent job, exposing them at a very young age will make them easy prey to corruption, children should not spend money except on their basic need, but if they are exposed to gambling they will find ways to get money to play and bet, and their minds will be corrupted.

With this, it is becoming increasingly difficult to control children when they are out of the home, even schools these days that kids stay along time before holiday to visit home is a challenge. These are some of the effect of civilization and modern day living. However, I think parents being a role model to the kids is the best that can yield result of good behavior until the children are independent to take there own decisions. Morality in the home can help the children conform to proper home training. Early gambling will breed addiction.

There must be a high probability of addiction in adolescence! No matter where they get the money to spend it on gambling... In the future these children will face big psychological problems which can only be solved with the help of a specialist! That's why it's better to limit children from such gambling sites!
There is no way to limit children from gambling site when they'll have the access to Internet from every corners of their environment. Children especially the adolescent do have high urge to learn new things from different categories of life. Parents should always talk to their children advising them of the effects of gambling and it's addictions. This is the best way to correct adolescents' mindset from further exploit of gambling. Many gambling platforms do restrict the activities of under aged gamblers in gambling which is not that effective to be precise.

Yes, that's right, that's why the main task of parents in the modern world is not to hide the child from the world around him, but to teach him how to interact with it correctly. Obviously, the situation when the child does not gamble because he understands how they work better than the situation when the child does not gamble simply because he does not have such an opportunity.

Yeah I also think about that but actually not everyone can take to handle or understand about the risk knowing the youngster in this generation is so aggressive to know new things on them and I think sometimes experience is good so that they will find out for their selves that there's no good on gambling also our guidance is so important here so that they will not came to the point that they became addicted to much on the game and also we should watch on what's happening on his surrounding since it contributes unto this vices.

I know most Youtuber and Twitch streamers are only after the money that is paid and don't care about the negative result the company they advertised may cause to society which is the reason I believe you make an important point which will help to save children and the future of our society but most video that involves this kind of advert has an age restriction. Besides, Youtube moderates all the videos that are on their platform and children can only watch the video that had age restriction if they lied about their information or use some stuff that won't allow the restriction.

I would agree with you. The fact is the content will always be there for everyone potentially to see, but with enough supervision from the parents and a much more active approach from these platforms, there wouldn't be cases where children are exposed to videos or streams that weren't suitable for younger audiences.

Yup! we can not control the content creators forte that they want to show on their channel, that is why as a parent I think we should be the ones that are guiding the little ones in what they are watching.


^ I definitely agree with you, we can not blame social media like Youtube because that is a part of their marketing strategy, so the best part here is the parent should always watching parental guidance for their children and avoid possible involvement in gambling. There is nothing wrong if they are aware of gambling as long as they will not be under influence of it and start to gamble on their own. I don't know how youtube filters their video, but I think it is good for them if they will not allow to 18 years old below to see a gambling video.

Social media shouldn't be the one to blame there will always be content that is not really suitable for children, and social media platforms can not control all content that has gambling, explicit content, and NSFW, so I think the parents' cooperation is surely be needed.

Exactly. There's no chance not to encounter those gambling videos since after all, these streamers and popular.

But for let's say even they are not, young guys will still saw it by any chance. Internet is so wide and everyone has an access to it nowadays. The power of social media is high and it's easy to circulate those videos via sharing.

Limiting these children will just lead to confusion and possibly out of curiosity, they will seek an attempt to enter gambling secretly. Educate them instead.

They'll get the money to gamble from their parents, they'll look for a way to cash it in and then so that they can gamble with their parents' money. These influencers should always put a disclaimer that the young viewers that they have shouldn't gamble since they have no money to gamble and teach them to be responsible first before trying anything crazy that they have on their minds like the perfect example of thinking that you can make 10x or more. I've thought of that when I was a teenager that has saw gambling in my neighborhood.

And worst, some will use credit card /details from their parents just to sign up especially if they encounter fiat-based gambling sites. In this case, it is really important to instill with your kids the importance of money and the effect of gambling. Even at early age, they need to know about the possible consequences, so when they finally encounter it via their peers or online search, they already know what to do.
That's already it, they'll get the money from their parents. Cash or transfer or through credit card but that's the problem of those parents that will have this problem. They shouldn't let their kids touch their credit cards because they'll really use them for the things that they want even for online shopping. That's why guidance is needed for those kids so that these parents will not have these encounters if ever they have a grown-up kid that's too curious with technology and gambling.

We should teach them what to avoid and the things that might happen if they do gambling illegally. It's our prerogative to tell them what gambling is and not to rely on the influencers in every Social media platform.

Children gambling should no way be encouraged because it exposes them to illicit acts, they would try to get money by every means including stealing it to play gambling. I guess there should be restrictions from the online betting companies against children so that if they are underaged they will be denied access. The parents too will have a major role to play to discourage their children against early gambling. Early gambling is the fastest way to become an addict and other hard life.


What if children imitate what their parents do, and that's usually not just from the spectacle that is used as a guide. Sometimes family, environmental or school factors have their respective roles in fostering a child's desire to be curious about what he sees every day. It is difficult to prevent the factors that motivate him from third parties. Even far from that, parents as much as possible provide an example that should be taught to children after he comes home from school.

Nope experience is not good at the wrong age but right age. If you expose a lady that does not understand good and bad to vices, it will likely destroy the youngestar because they will be carried away with the wrong things and may not get hold back on themselves and it will be too late to turn back. This is why you have some deviant behavior in the society.

So the young ones need to be guided and protected until they are able to think and take their own decisions.

It's a grave sin for parents if they let their children expose at a very young age, once they found out that the gaming site their kids are playing have integrated games that are similar to gambling they should stop their kids and look for alternative sites, there are still a lot of gaming sites that are dedicated to the kid and safe for children.

Cases like this are very difficult to prevent. Because where I live this has happened and it certainly makes a lot of talks. I don't think it's the right thing to blame those who are shaking. Return to family control and watch what the child is doing. Maybe they were just watching and nothing more.
Well, that was the beginning, we were just watching, getting advertisements and simple displays that flashed on our cellphones, then we finally got into the world of gambling.

I would not entirely blame their family either since curiosity goes a long way to a determined individual. Regardless, I do agree that there must be some sort of intervention done by the parents. Their primarily responsibility is the well-being of their children, that is why preventing the children from falling to this rabbit hole is a big task that must be shouldered by the parents.

Youtube is accessible all over the world so those promotions that they are doing can be watched by young people. Well there is no news on this because even though there is now youtube we are already exposed to gambling since we're young, To be honest, at a young age, I already learned card games and I play on it with my friend's small pot money only.

Most people have already had some experience with gambling when they were young but those who made lots of friends while playing still gambling right now. That's what I witnessed at our place where my batch still playing with their childhood friend the same way they played cards back then but now with stakes on the table. I think that is the reason why most kids right now are involved in this activity even though their parent doesn't allow them to do so. When they see all the basic tutorials on Youtube, most of them will try them and ended up playing every day.

Youtube's revenue and some Streamers' revenue comes from such ads, it's not possible to ask for a complete ban when it's against their interests, besides, I find these videos almost always have stickers asking viewers to be over eighteen, they also have basic warnings and couldn't complain more about their work. Sometimes I see many parents who are lacking time with their children, just handing the phone and not continuing or communicating with the kids daily, children's curiosity sometimes causes disaster

By the way, even if the game does not directly contain gambling, children can still face money issues in it. I think those who have children know that in many absolutely children's games there are many things that are sold for real money on various marketplaces and on social networks. And because of this, for many players, the game turns into a competition for the extraction of such things.

OP, even these streamers will not show up, there are other ways for young people to be exposed to gambling.

Did you consider knowing the environment they are moving to? Do you think that people around them won't share some views about gambling? Do you think gambling can just be made online? There are endless ways for these children to be exposed to gambling even they don't want to or how protective we are.

It doesn't mean that once they are exposed in these gambling videos by the streamers or on thru other ways, they will be a gambler right away. It's not of course. They have other activities that they are more focused on at that age and gambling is just another information inserted into their mind as part of growing up.

There should be and as a parent then its our responsibility on raising up our kids on the right path and wont really be that too irresponsible on not doing our part as a guardian.

We should guide them on best possible path as they grow up even though there are circumstances which we cant avoid because we cant check them from time to time.

It might be hard but at least we should really do our best to give them at least the idea on why gambling isnt really not good for young minds.

Nowadays, children can get idea about gambling activities with the help of social media and internet and sometimes it is made to be free accessed in terms of tutorial or some sites are easily accessed without restrictions so the parental guidance is really needed to make a child aware especially in terms of gambling.

The rate at which adolescent are venturing into gambling this days is alarming with high frequency that the government and parental guidance need to look into to educate little ones on how to limit gambling in children cause I know we can't stop it. It's the trend of the day... gambling.  Our little ones really are inquisitive ready to know what gives daddy money and how they can help themselves on how to be independent on daddy's money, they're want to make money to get their own financial liberty.

Daddy goes to come and come back to notice that the children do not depends on his money again. This is the new era children/adolescent are into, making their own money through gambling or other online activities.

If a Youtuber is advertising something that involves gambling either directly in their video via a sponsorship or down below in their description or comments, then the video should be age restricted. That would at least inject some consistency into Youtube's moderation policy.

It needs more attention from adult people to watch out for their kids or use Safe Guards in their kid's mobile phones to not see the videos or advertisements about gambling and porn or other explicit materials.
Once the kids watch a gambling game on Youtube, their curiosity will come and sooner or later, they will visit that site and playing the gambling games.

Especially this system infuriates when I use YouTube without verification, for example, at work or on someone else's computer. To watch the video, I have to risk my account (enter the password on someone else's device). Given the fact that this password is suitable for all Google services and the risk is too great, I had to create another account for such cases.

In this way people need to be aware of the exposure specially parents in which must limit their children in using social media specially those account they are following because more than anyone it is the parent who must be concern about their kids and not the government or who other.

Safeguards may only apply to videos but about advertising, I think gambling and pornography sometimes appear in advertisements as well and that has happened. After all, if the children are still not of school age then I'm not sure they will easily access what is shown in the video, because usually they only like about the graphics and appearance on the screen and not about the story or the content of the intent and purpose of the video. But yes, supervision and mentoring will always be something that parents should prioritize, not only in videos but also in their children's interactions.

And to be honest, I'm glad that she, as a girl, is mainly interested in various girl games and blogs, it would be more difficult with a boy  ;D May be i wrong, but girls are more inclined towards collectible games than fiercely competitive ones.

It is difficult to prevent the factors that motivate him from third parties. Even far from that, parents as much as possible provide an example that should be taught to children after he comes home from school.

This is one of the factors that a parents should be mindful because a child would think that whatever he/she sees that his/her parents doing was right if what the parents doing is contrary to their actions. Nowadays, children can get idea about gambling activities with the help of social media and internet and sometimes it is made to be free accessed in terms of tutorial or some sites are easily accessed without restrictions so the parental guidance is really needed to make a child aware especially in terms of gambling.

Even today's parents often let their children do this because they don't have time to monitor what the child is doing, because they are busy with work and others. This usually creates something that tends to encourage children to feel free from parental pressure. Obviously gambling for children is strictly prohibited and is not allowed to be accessed under any circumstances. even if it's only a demo account though.

You're thinking about it too much to be honest there are some kids who are already exposed to gambling even before the internet promotes it.
I for one grow up seeing it regularly gambling at schools and even in our own backyard.
It just depends on how people would control it I would be honest that it does affect my school performance as OP stated but I got over it.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

Children are naturally very inquisitive.  They copy the behavior of adults.  YouTube and other social networks are very authoritative for them.  This is a great danger ...

Children do not have critical thinking.  They are just beginning to learn about the world.  Therefore, there is a great risk that they will become addicted to gambling.  This is a big risk. 

How can this risk be minimized? 

Content filtering may be needed. 

At the same time, I am not a supporter of the introduction of censorship.  Freedom of speech is the basic value of Humanity.

You cannot refuse it.  Such a dilemma ...

Most times we neglect our children feeling the know nothing. They level of exposure the younger generation get access to on daily basis will amaze you as an adult. Most of this children get exposed too early either through the internet, from close friends most times even from careless parents. Any parent who will not create enough time to advice and educate their children on the way to go about their daily activities will only end up training all sort of negative addicted lads.

Once my kids hit 10years of age, I'm talking to them about gambling. I'm not waiting until they're 18. Funny thing is that most kids don't start up with serious gambling like racing and other sports betting but rather with the basic and popular card games at home and lottery tickets. And although online gambling doesn't start until these kids have access to smartphones and are exposed to advertisment and gambling websites, what starts as an innocent curiosity might soon lead to a lifelong problem.

As a parent, I owe it to my kids to watch out for risks factors while I talk to them  about  gambling. I try as much as possible to set up rules for internet use with them.

I think it's unrealistic to protect children from gambling. Almost every child who spends his free time with his peers at least once in his life has played money in a card game and it's not about upbringing. The point is that each of us gets our own life experience, regardless of whether it's good or bad.
Of course this is what happened but at least we can control our children's online activities...

I have always been a friend to my son and asked him slowly what he was doing today, gambling advertisements made me worried, children have high curiosity, I am very afraid that they will fall into the online gambling trap.

I believe that if you do this and can control what your child does, then it can minimize something that has a bad impact on visiting gambling sites.
As parents, it is our duty to educate children to continue not to fall into gambling, even though we have already entered, it does not mean that our children have to follow the mistakes of their parents.

That's a strange thinking that you yourself love to play gambling but wish that your children does not involve in gambling. Children usually copy the parents and if they found parents playing gambling, they will definitely follow them.
If you want that our children does not play gamble, then we should stop playing gambling ourselves.

the only way that this will stop is if all the social platform or streaming platform prohibits their users or content creator from advertising any type of gambling sites or if the government prohibit gambling site advertisement altogether.
Before more young youtubers join to make gambling videos I think both the social media platforms and the casino owners should put measures to discourage them.
If the can ban them on both platforms it will be a good way to deter any minors from trying this out, and to ensure laws are followed if it is a regulated casino the regulator should swing into action and fine the casino.

until that happens you'll continue seeing them. the content creators that advertise gambling sites don't really care if their audience became addicted to gambling or not. all they care about is that advertising these gambling platforms will earn them some easy bucks.
Which is true, get the right people to advertise a product is getting expensive and difficult so these don't care how the get an audience which is unfair to the young ones.

If that is about the video on Youtube and Twitch, many people can watch those videos, including the young generation, to get into gambling and play games.

Twitch has their own cathegory for gambling ( slot ) and cmiiw they not restricted age to watch those stream. unlike youtube they had age restricition and optional for streamer non safe for kids . now it's not a problem about the streamer. but to the platform which is not maximal in limiting their streamer content.

Firstly, I saw many examples that refute your assumption - the children did not follow the interests of the parents at all, even taking into account the fact that the parents deliberately tried to interest the children in something specific.
Secondly, the interests of children and adults are still different, therefore it is difficult to live focusing on the fact that the child will allegedly copy you.

YouTube also has an age limit for sensitive content that requires parental control. I don't know if streaming video while gambling is also one of the filtered by the platform but so far I don't think there is a limit. Streamers may be able to age their audience, but if the platform doesn't have stricter rule, then it's still possible for kids to get influenced by gambling content.

that's what  the problem and in the current conditions, parents be required policy and supervision of children's activities in accessing the internet, I think today's children are too smart to fool every age limit regulation applied by online platforms so they can easily register these platform accounts by falsifying their age and in my personal opinion stream platforms that serve sensitive content such as gambling or porn they should be stricter in registering new accounts or at least they require users to do kyc, because nowadays most streaming platforms are too easy for users to register and access every content using only goggle account.

If you see a YouTuber who runs a channel dedicated to young people advertising a casino or bookmaker, report it immediately. I am sure that it is forbidden by law all over the world to advertise gambling to children.
Such a channel should be removed immediately and the police should deal with this person. Nobody can do such things!

I agree with this, parents should be the first to be able to prevent their children from being exposed to gambling.
However, it could be that children know about gambling not from Youtube but they see adults gambling firsthand and finally do what they see.
Parents can activate parental control so that their children only watch content according to their age, not only about gambling but other adult content that is also not suitable for them to watch.

You know, steps are take  to most things that could be exposed to kids or should I say children as the thread says. In recent times, phones have been made programmable to come with parental guide or control. A lot of other devices have got that too. Unfortunately, I do t k ow as to how many parent are aware and uses this future. All thsee are put in place to ensure control on what is being exposed to children as there is only so much you could restrict publicly with little means of verifying who is clicking or watching what. The ratings come up but, you don't expect kids to be honest with themselves every time and choose not to view a content of interest.

Advertising is part of the business but then, they can only do so much as stating the ratings and thats just it. The rest is left for them kids to follow best practices and be nice enough to skip.

When you are a parent and involved in gambling then you should be responsible to hide off things like these in front or in the awareness of your children if you don't like for them to follow you on but if you

are a type of guardian or parent who doesn't really care at all on what they do saw then expect that they would really be doing on the same thing most likely but still depending on the child if they are

really that eager on following on whats been done by its parents or would really act on his own because he/she does eventually know on what are the implications of gambling.

As said, yes, its the parents should have control over their activities since they tend to fall on all they see. I have enabled the control over kids youtube, so that my son just watches only the content I have chosen for him. Its obviously the rymns, stories and drawings where he is really interested. Often games do come as suggestion, he asks so. I would always explain him that that video is not for kids, thats for dad. He then just leaves and moves to his interesting content.

However, one day there is a lot chance for him to fall into it on our obscene. This is our responsibility to explain the way our kids understand and accepts what is explained.

Im also a family man and im really that serious on raising up my kids on a good way and wont really restrict out that much even though they arent doing anything.
I just dont want to end up on being overprotective because that would really be not a nice way on handling your kids.Just tell them on whats good and bad
and dont be tired on reminding them about those things and since we do have experience then we do just want to raise them up without experiencing problems.
Although its not an assured thing or perfect parenting but at least you have done on what should be done.

And also, we can find so many gambling advertisements on many platforms, especially online games where there are many children who are also playing online games (although the games are also suitable for children, the advertisements are sometimes not controllable with the appearance of gambling adv.
And we know that children may not be able to consider the plus and minus effects of that. They are sometimes only attracted to play and win the jackpot that is very desirable and attractive like in the adverstiement.

Well, actually this is part of the control by the parents themselves to always check the children's activities on their phone or even other devices.
Giving attention and understanding about what's good and not good to do at that time, sometimes, we need certain ages to do something wisely.

Many young minds got into trouble and become early addicted to gambling due to the influence of their environment, sometimes they even saw their parents doing gambling. This will give a mental effect on them and have some curiosity about what these people do. I'm seeing this as a huge problem in the future, their early exposure to gamble makes them become lazy and makes them no interested in going to school but instead to keep gambling.

What you say is right and that is really happening around us. Many kids play with their friends. But some of them hide gambling activity from their parents or adult people in their neighborhood so we do not know the truth. Besides gambling, some kids also drink alcohol as we see that they grow mature before their age. It needs concern from the parents, every parent because I see that the parents can not watch and keep an eye on their children's interactions with their friends. The parents can lecture their children, but the parents need to show the example to learn by doing good or bad.

There is not an epidemic of children gambling so it would be ridiculous if platforms started censoring this type of content. There is no way to prevent people from making bad decisions with 100% effectiveness. Streamers are not harming anybody by promoting gambling. Everyone is responsible for their own choices and it is up to individuals to limit their risk.

That's good parenting that you've got. Even though we're not all the same on how we handle and forbid our children not to be as curious as they are.

Everyone yes, responsible for what to take in and not to. We can not stop anyone tempting others by any mode. Its a world of business. Everyone is aiming to earn by something or the other. Online has become a foundation to all now a days to prompt themselves and earn. It depends on the one who chooses what. Humans are easily attracted towards fantasy. Children do fall into it easily as everything would seem attractive when they grow. Its parents, teachers and others nearby are responsible for children's growth.

Yes, and it all depends on the parents how to give child understandable advice about the internet which can have a bad impact on children, because nowadays it is very easy to find sites that are totally inappropriate for minors and also lots of gambling advertisements etc. which has a negative impact on children.
because a child is a creative process of brain growth and if he is curious he will open it and do it even though it is impossible because it all depends on his intelligence, so it all depends on parental control every child holds a gadget connected to the Internet, and there are many children under age who engage in gambling without the knowledge of their parents.

That's a strange thinking that you yourself love to play gambling but wish that your children does not involve in gambling. Children usually copy the parents and if they found parents playing gambling, they will definitely follow them.
If you want that our children does not play gamble, then we should stop playing gambling ourselves.

Should we go back in time and stop what we've been doing? No way, Isn't a bad parent not necessarily expecting their child to be bad too? indeed I admit that I have already gambled. But we can't let our children fall for it. As bad as the actions of parents, they still don't want their children to be like him one day. Farmers don't want their children to become farmers, so he sends his children to high schools to be successful and live better than him. street traders do not want their children to be like him, so parents will try whatever happens, don't let him become a difficult trader. Do you think your ugliness wants your children to imitate you? isn't it not? (even if you have bad luck) Maybe not for someone like you.

Although outwardly children often imitate what their parents do, it does not mean that parents cannot learn from the dark past and hope that one day their children do not want them to experience what their parents went through. A parent would want the best for their child. Even by sacrificing one's life.

Imagine buddy how you gamble in front of your child !!!!

I believe there's a right time for everything and kids may see you playing gambling but we shouldn't let them play with it or teach them what is gambling. In their young age we should focus on to something that could develop their cognitive and imagination skills. It's better to teach them the importance of education rather than exposing them to the reality of the outside world.

It's not yet the right time and we should be responsible enough to guide them where they should go during their adolescence life. There are more important things that they should understand that would carry them on their own when they start to make some money.

YouTubers and streamers take advantage of this and they will massively promoting gambling sites to expand their reach.
Of course not all youtubers and streamers do this, but there is a small portion that do.

I believe that for this to end or at least decrease, it will be necessary to create socio-educational measures or their parents to have greater control over what their children access in the internet.
I also think it would be interesting for the video platforms themselves to adopt measures for children to access these sites.

I think the title should be "Children exposed to gambling".

Anyway, when we say children, we know they are minors and minors are not allowed to gamble, therefore they should be monitored by their parents and their addiction should not be blamed on gambling, it should be blamed for lack of monitoring by their parents. Gambling exist even before but it's not a deadly activities though really risky, and sometimes gambling makes us smarter as it will teach us on how to manage the risk despite losing.

No children would be expose to gambling if the parents are responsible.

i totally agree with you, there are all kind of bad stuff on the internet that is dangerous for kids, not just gambling, and parents know about that, if their kids are watching gambling streams or whatever other bad things, parents are the first to blame, it's their responsibility as adults to take care of their kids and teach them what they should and should not do.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

Childrens with very innocent and aggressive thinking is highly feasible to catch a bad influence from gambling, so I really discourage them on making this as a form of entertainment within a young age. Though it's not really using money at first, but in event of society norms; using money as a tool to gamble would really lead these young people to have gambling addiction. We're creating little monsters for future crimes because of gambling that toxicate the minds of children.

It is better to watch our children's when they use their mobile phone so they do not visit something that they should not watch because once they know about gambling, for example, they will be curious and will try it later when we are not with them. Children now can know something faster than adult people, so they will search by themselves if they know a new thing. We do not want to see our children playing gambling because that can change their life in the future. So before something worst happens to them when they grow up, we need to prevent that by always take care of them.

That's a serious problem that every parent needs to implement a full control system for their child.

I don't blame them (children) who are involved in games/gambling, everyone knows that during the school pandemic there are many holidays, the government recommends that every child must have a laptop and an Android cellphone, This is a big risk for minors who tend to be involved in online games, parents who have to supervise each of their children as a whole, in operating Android/laptop, devoted to learning, not for games/gambling.

I see almost all minors are involved in playing online games as long as there are online learning rules, this is very damaging to the morale of every child, if parents are not very active in controlling their children, pandemics, online learning, android, laptops, the mastermind of today's children's problems.

It's a shame, if some parents are super busy, they leave early in the morning and come home late at night.

In my opinion, children should be taught from the age of 7 the basics of mathematical probability theory. 

Currently, the mathematical theory of probability is being studied at the University.  It is not right. 

Children should understand that all events in their lives are probabilistic in nature.  This will allow them to understand the concept of gambling.  Children will not turn into gambling addicts.  And that's great! 

Probability theory can be taught using the example of an ordinary metal coin. 

The probability that the coin will hit "heads" is 50 percent.  The probability that the coin will hit "tails" is 50 percent.  The probability that the coin will hover in the air when thrown is 0 percent.  This is an incredible event. 

You can create educational comics.  Children love to read comics.

I'm open to exposing my kid to gambling but not actually make it like is a good thing to do for a source of income. It's true that we need to expose our kids to a better environment but they won't be learning from it. Opening them to a harsh environment will make them view life with survival skills but would rather not give them the idea of making a living by being a gambler.


Exposure so that your child is addicted to gambling? without realizing it, you are trying to plunge him into which it is not an appropriate stage at the psychological level of children who are still under 12 years old. How can you think that helps the growth of children's thinking which in the future may not be fully controlled?
A child has their own world, and you have to learn how to educate them based on their psychological development. Not based on your satisfaction when gambling.

Its just dumb to have that kind of mindset because instead of trying to avoid it then you are just giving him some exposure just for them to get used to and to be aware? I know on some aspects but children are not really

that much aware on things around which curiosity would really most likely to happen on where they would really get involved if you do just tolerate that stuff. Better to avoid it as far as possible and in case you do able

to see some signs that they were aware or engaged with gambling stuff then this is the time you would be making some  lectures and proper guidance.

Children should indeed be kept away from gambling activities, and their mindset cannot be wise in dealing with gambling. I don't think it's wise to
open up the idea to children about gambling, they haven't been able to accept it, it's not that they will realize it. But there is a possibility that they
will become more and more curious about gambling, I said so, because now I have children and know how they think. The safest thing is to
avoid children from gambling, parents should be very careful to keep their children from getting involved with gambling.

I have a different view on this, exposing a child to gambling at a certain age may be productive but they should not do it at an early stage of their life as they will not have the brain capacity to create resistance with gambling addiction. If a child is 15 years already, I can start teaching the child the elementary part of gambling and risk management but is not allowed the child to play any gambling game at that stage until 18+.

Parent's responsibility is to protect their child and look after what their children are doing. If they cannot stop and make their children follow them, they should be the ones to act as the parent and not act as the child as if the child is the one that they have to follow. And with this matter, it's very important for the parents to act firmly with everything so that their children won't be exposed to gambling. We don't want our kids to be open to gambling while they're young since our parents have also thought us not to be one. But when they grow up and they have their own money to gamble and they're not asking money from us, they can do whatever they want as long as they become responsible too.

I think that we should also consider the fact that in most cultures, gambling is not being frowned upon by the general population. You can see card games being played at funerals, e-casino establishments easily seen in business districts or commercial centers, apps and videos on the internet, even nostalgia plays where the adults now remember times where they play games that has betting money or valuables on it. There is no limit in the way gambling is being portrayed and that is also a factor.

Exactly. Even how we protect our kids, they will still be exposed to the gambling. Just even playing with their friends has the possibility that they will be involved in gambling. Rather than protect our kids or try them to avoid gambling, just educate them.

Limiting them will just result in curiousity. That's the most critical part as children will start keeping things secret in private to their parents and on my part, I don't want that to happen.

If my kids will ask questions about gambling, I like that part and I will happily discuss it with them.

Educating children in their childhood is the best thing you can do and hope for the rest of their future that they don't think about gambling as a source of income.

There are instances like these because we cant really monitor our children 24/7 which means theres always a tendency that you would really be missing out those times on where they had able to encounter something which is inappropriate into their age which should really be avoided. Giving them some lectures or realizations on early age is much more better thing to be done rather than telling them when they are already old.
Im not saying its already late to guide them up but there are really difference when those children of yours had made out some realization on early age.

All we can do as parents is to constantly advise them about the things they shouldn't do and when they feel unto the things which we prohibit them from doing so, we need to punish them to make them realize the bad things they have done.

It is very unlikely that parents will limit the use of cell phones because currently school children use cellphones or study online.
and if we know their activities, especially when they study online, there is nothing wrong if they are only allowed to use their cellphones for online learning and remain under parental supervision.
Whatever the reason, if the child enters the wrong site that can damage his brain development, especially gambling and porn sites, it is not very good for the child and also requires patience.

True. I have to buy my kid a phone for her to be educated because everything is online now. And because they can't go out, they are now going to see the world just using the internet which is not really ideal sooner all they could do is just clicking all the way and probably land on casino pages. The earlier you can warn them about the casinos online, the earlier they know it's not good.

We are seeing many kids under 17 years old already access many websites that they should not access and many of them are already watching porn (this is a serious problem in many countries).
Well, gambling can be like that. The curiosity will attract them to dig deeper on the website or search for the other website to fill in what they need.
Parents often let their kids use their gadgets without stop because the parents are busy with their work, which makes their children do not control.
We need to teach them about discipline so they will know what they need to do if they visit that site.

A younger children is more susceptible to gambling addiction compare to an adult because children can't make a decision at their young age and what they see will be the ones that will register into their mind and it has bad effects on them as they grow older.

Preventing these children to not get exposed to gambling is one of the main responsibilities of the parents. Its kinda hard to prevent it since children are always surfing into the internet nowadays especially that they can't go out because of the pandemic but as a parent, you must teach them and tell which are good and which are bad.

This is easier to do if the gambling company has a local office and is regulated, the authorities can easily follow up such a case.

Unlike what's becoming popular today which is online gambling and the growing number of unregulated casinos which they can get away with laws which don't govern them, but honestly I think regulation should start from home,  passing on the blame  or responsibility on to someone else isn't my kind of solution,  as parents and guardians monitor what your kids do on the internet,

Surely becoming gambling addict at a young age have many bad consequences which could put your personal and financial life at stake ahead in your life.There can be certain restrictions like putting watching limit to such videos for the young children's but that's also not possible and easy as algorithm needs to be changed and moreover the email id login is of parents in phone.These reasons have led to problem in children like anxiety and stress and eye sight weakness but they need to overcome it for their safety.

I fully agree with you. Youtube and videos over the internet in general are fantastic, I have learned a lot with these in may practical stuff DIY, gardening, programming,... truly amazing. However there is a tendency to publish content that is super-biased and sometimes simply wrong. On top of that, there is the children issue. It is not only about gambling, it is also about drugs, hate, sex and in general, roadmaps to life that have all the chances of ending in drama. The only thing that can help is to have the parents understanding what is going on and make sure that they explain the children what is that they are seeing and how to interpret it and this has to start at an earlier age: the moment they pick up a phone.

Everything could be potentially be watched on youtube but at least they are moderated strictly but there are parts of internet which your children could possibly see off those things which they wont really be only
exposed on gambling but also into those other things as well same as you mentioned which as a parent we should really be mindful on how to guide and make aware of our kids into those things so that if ever
they do able to watch or encounter it out then they are much aware and the best thing to do is to avoid them.Its only a matter of parenting but not all are really good on this thing
this is why it do really make out some problems later on.

It is bad that our children are born to meet gambling as a game,which will drain and suck them financially and emotionally of the little dime they got.The internet is a tool that facilitates online gambling,but since it can't be scrapped off,we just have to bear,and make do with it as one of the disadvantage of the internet.

That's where the parents come in, if they let their children be exposed to it without doing anything, I think that they have already failed as a parent, you are the first defense of your child or any child for that matter to prevent them from discovering things that they aren't ready for yet.

You are right, those responsible for all this are the parents, in my case when I play and my son is close, the colors, the sounds impact him, it is something normal, and they approach and ask, I always let him know that this It is something delicate that he is not yet old enough to do it by himself, however I tell him to click to see how it goes, and he does it, he likes it, but he is always under my supervision, I like a dad I let him play but Other types of games, there are games that teach them both the alphabet and math things, and yet you have to be supervising because many times advertising can take you to forbidden pages, and he already knows it, when something like this comes out He tells me : "Dad, that's advertising, I'm going to close it" everything is about being very aware of the children and being responsible with them.

Well, here the role of parents is very important to control their children, to keep controlling their activities on the internet which often opens certain videos with smartphones. But in my place.. the video about the gambling site has not been clearly listed/often appears on youtube or other social media.

Although I admit that the internet provides facilities for everyone to access online gambling, even children. But we are not wise to blame
the internet entirely, I agree this is where the role of parents is very important to supervise their children when accessing the internet.
So parents really have to be diligent in checking what their children's activities are on the internet, the easiest way is to monitor the history of
sites that have been opened by our children. If history is found they open a gambling site, provide education that they are not allowed to open
a gambling site before they are adults.

nope , in youtube almost half of the videos has gambling site advertising ,a nd the famous 1xbet (in which questionable for being scammy) is spreading the social media and video sites luring players .
so if your children can access youtube that easy then expect them to be prone from this gambling advertisements.
best to limit their activities using gadget for sites that you will only allow them to use, better to get sites that even with pay but will keep them safer from this wild internet world .

I think that control over the execution of gambling sites in order to prohibit children under the age of 16-18 or even up to 18 years old should be done at the level of national legislation.  The fact that schoolchildren, even elementary grades, can lose the little money they have from their parents is still nonsense.  The bad news is that they are much more likely to become gambling addicts than people in adulthood.  The fragile psyche of a child perceives such envy 10 times faster than an adult.

That is parent's job always to watch their kids every time they are alone because we do not know what they do. Once I watched some kids play with their friends using their mobile phones, but after hearing what they say, I am shocked to see that they use the money to play a game on their mobile phones. It is simple gambling because they give the money to the winner after the battle or buy some food for the winner. That teaches them to have a gambler mental in their ages.

I fully agree with that, they can't blame the faith of their children to gambling as gambling sites are very transparent with their rules that they'll only allow users to gamble when they are at the right age, if a child gambles, that means they lied and they bypass the rules, therefore, it's the lack of monitoring by the parents which is the main reason why they have access to gambling.

they can do this by limiting the sites their children can enter , so in cases like this they will not be prone from getting involved. because kids are easily be lured , once there is something attracts their eyes surely they will check it and find out what's inside.
let us be reminded that our children's action is a part on how we literally teaches them, meaning what they will become is on how we shape them.

Parents that let this happen have already failed in becoming a parent, also making mobile devices as a pacifier for your child to behave has been the thing for the past decade and the results are showing, the newer generation is getting more dumber than the last. In the case of gambling, children's phones should have a customized filter to help with the parents preventing children from being exposed early to vices like gambling.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

Parents should be aware of the proliferating gambling sites online, awareness is the key to the prevention of children getting hooked on gambling sites if they are not being monitored and kids are spending too much online, it usually starts with gaming until the child learn that there is a way to make money online through betting and yes one of this is when kids watched these streamers and Youtubers promoting gambling sites in their channels.

The Internet gives freedom, but as minors, they should be guided by their parents. I also have children and I make sure they cannot access sites that are not for minors, by controlling internet accessibility, that's one step to prevent children from getting addicted.

Try to be a better parent then because a child won't be exposed to this kind of thing when the parents are guiding the child properly and it's not like the kids wander so easily on this gambling website, there's definitely an outside influence that triggered their curiosity. Manage if not be strict on their online activities, limit their screen time and play something else, buy some board games or teach them to read books.

I think children will never bother trying gambling after seeing those ads and promotions if their parents raised them well to understand what to do and what not to do as a kid. Good parents will always have great kids and great kids know how to choose their friend wisely.

You can also monitor your child browsing history if you'll set it on your internet settings. This is why being close to our children is important, so they will never be shy opening things on your no matter what they are.

Yes, basically when they are children, whatever gadget they use, it should be the responsibility of the parents, which means, parents still have full control to control their every activity on the gadget. Because of the guidance or not, children over time will know all that because of the environment as well. But if parents can continue to supervise their children during their growing up period, then I believe children who get more supervision than their parents will understand what is good and what is bad for them even if they are aware of gambling and pornography.

Every kid will go through the process though.  Online gambling however is different than what we've learned back in the old day when there was no internet yet. Physical gambling is a lot fun and its a mean of socialization during those days with fellow kids and learn while not really betting real money.

With online gambling, there are 3rd parties which kids have no idea of scams.

That is commonly known gambler's fallacy. As per basic psychology of human beings, we are all imagining like we got super power to manage everything and why not gambling; it is like we are watching, reading and seeing that almost all the gamblers are suffering everywhere still we are assuming they are missing something and we can fix it so that we can make good profits out of gambling.

even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.
Even adults are getting into gambling that way only then how we could expect children to stay away from gambling once they get to know about it. There are 200% chances for children to get addicted once they are introduced to gambling.

Kids follow those celebreties and this is not the right age for them to get exposed to gambling. Because if habit of gambling develop in that age when they are not that mature can be devastating.

The role of parents is very important in the growth and development of children, and nowadays many children are allowed to use gadgets, especially Android phones, for the reason that they only play children's games and also the you tube channel about children without realizing it. many children are smarter in using it.
Even so, it must still be under parental supervision and also accompanied or always see what is being watched or played and the use of gadgets must also be limited to avoid unwanted things and also provide good directions.
because children are in their developing brain and if they don't do what is called, a child's curiosity will most likely click when there is an ad or gambling site and whatever it is that is inappropriate for him.

If you want to further monitor it, you can always limit what they can access although it takes some tweaking to do it but it's worth it, it gives your child privacy but at the same time keeps them away from this kind of things at a young age.

Parenting is never been an easy thing but you could really guide your children on the right path even though it wouldn't be perfect but at least you do really do your part as a parent.

Children could potentially be exposed into lots of things not just gambling but also in other things as well.

The habits are formed by doing thing(s) slowly and slowly for some time and then you'll realize you're doing it on autopilot without realizing you've become addicted to it,
Mostly the habits developed such as gambling from an early age will mess with the psyche of the child with regards to a quick profit.

Unfortunately, of the four participants in the process, involving children in gambling, namely:
-the state and its laws:
-gambling sites:
-the child's parents:
-the child -
only the parents are fully convinced and try their best to wean the child from this danger. only.  
The state looks at the problem in two ways, because the lobby from the Internet does not allow the adoption of prohibitive laws.  
Sites are generally just business and they do not care who plays, as long as they make bets.  And children themselves are subject to addiction to play.  So the problem is practically insoluble.  
Only weaning from a mobile phone or the simplest phone just to talk to parents can save the situation.  Well, total parental control, of course, is not possible ...

Gambling is similar to other things that children should not observe in adults - alcohol, drugs ...
Unfortunately, it is mainly up to the parents to let their children observe. If the children see their parents gambling, of course it will be normal for them and they will also later do so.
Everyone should avoid setting a bad example and likewise try to prevent children from watching advertisements about gambling sites.

but even without mentioned mate yet children is prone to gamble because of internet , we knew how great in luring players these gambling sites is and they knew how to attract all genders and all ages .
so even without being heard in their elderly yet they may be involved in gambling because of internet.
so the main way to prevent them from gambling is to observe and keep an eye on them.

That is parent's job always to watch their kids every time they are alone because we do not know what they do. Once I watched some kids play with their friends using their mobile phones, but after hearing what they say, I am shocked to see that they use the money to play a game on their mobile phones. It is simple gambling because they give the money to the winner after the battle or buy some food for the winner. That teaches them to have a gambler mental in their ages.

   Absolutely every parents job is to watch out their kids to influence an error things or in a Gambling Site . Nowadays more child addicted in phone since were in pandemic our child was in the house nothing else to do beside studying or playing a phone but more in playing gadgets and without our permission as a parent our child can easily go in site what they like that involve money. So as a parent if we got know that our child was exposed in a site of Gambling we will be worried about them.

Parents that let this happen have already failed in becoming a parent, also making mobile devices as a pacifier for your child to behave has been the thing for the past decade and the results are showing, the newer generation is getting more dumber than the last.

  Yes it's true some parents are don't have care to their child behavior they never think what they did to their child and what they give .They just only make their child as nothing cause I believe as a parent were the first Teacher of them ,we are the guidance of them to make them straight in a good path way . Even it takes time to change my child if ever she influenced already in Gambling ,I will not surrender to guide her until she change her mindset and focus to her study.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.
Youtube has a tick box which is the content is made for kids? so the creator has to avoid clicking it means those type of videos won't get into their recommended list while exploring youtube. And if still those children are viewing it by violating the age restrictions then it is their mistake, not the creator.

Also the parents has the job of monitoring their kids and their activities, if they want their kids to be grown in a good way then its their responsibility to check it.

Children grow with with what they see,hear and what they are taught.They see their elderly ones gambling,they hear people talking about gamble,they see people teaching people how to gamble,therefore,they try to implement what they see,hear and taught.

Gambling is similar to other things that children should not observe in adults - alcohol, drugs ...
Yes but this limits to what culture and what kind of family a child comes from , if the family values are really not into vices then the possibilities that the child will come in gambling is far to happen.

Quote
Unfortunately, it is mainly up to the parents to let their children observe. If the children see their parents gambling, of course it will be normal for them and they will also later do so.
i can relate on this one , my mother use to gamble with my aunts and relatives since i was young so i grow knowing that gambling is normal and this can be a part of daily living while now that i am a parents already i tried changing this beliefs and build my family vices free.
Quote
Everyone should avoid setting a bad example and likewise try to prevent children from watching advertisements about gambling sites.
hope this will be the basis of many how to bring their children into maturity.

Even there are restrictions but if your kids is too lazy to continue watching those kind of contents,

It's no longer the creator nor YouTube's obligation but the parents should be held responsibilities with any actions coming from their children,

YouTube do their part creating this feature and creators needs to follow that, so it everything is up to the parents to make sure that they are guiding their kids not to open this kind of videos.

I fully agree with that, they can't blame the faith of their children to gambling as gambling sites are very transparent with their rules that they'll only allow users to gamble when they are at the right age, if a child gambles, that means they lied and they bypass the rules, therefore, it's the lack of monitoring by the parents which is the main reason why they have access to gambling.
I hope every young parent can fully monitoring their children, no matter how busy they are, because once their kids doing something wrong at their age, it can be with them until they grow up. And when that happens, parents will not be easy to give explanations to them.

When the kids access gambling, they can easily hide their identity, including their ages, because they know how to do that.

Absolutely every parents job is to watch out their kids to influence an error things or in a Gambling Site .

I already saw kids addicted to their phone around me and that is not easy to make them realize that is not good for their health, eyes, and even their socialize with people around them. They seem does not to care about other people and even they do not want to meet others. Just imagine what will happen with them if they are addicted to gambling in their ages. They will lose their chance to grow up, socialize with others, and have fun at their age.

Here's a thoughtful quote from an article, "The younger generations are growing up aware of the dangers [of smoking] and don’t see smoking as glamourous, whereas the exposure to bookies has resulted in an increased problem among young people." I agree. The family as a small unit in the society has a huge role to play. As parents, the onus lies on us to make a responsible member out of each child born into it. Every family must teach it's child the attitudes, values, and actions appropriate to function well in the society. If the larger society has failed to put gambling in the same category as smoking then the family must not fail to teach it's child the health, emotional and psychologically, economic cost of getting hooked to gambling. It is a responsibility we must carryout.

nope , in youtube almost half of the videos has gambling site advertising ,a nd the famous 1xbet (in which questionable for being scammy) is spreading the social media and video sites luring players .
so if your children can access youtube that easy then expect them to be prone from this gambling advertisements.
best to limit their activities using gadget for sites that you will only allow them to use, better to get sites that even with pay but will keep them safer from this wild internet world .
Actually this problem can be solved with access to Youtube children. But actually it's true, some ads on youtube offer several gambling sites. I myself have children, for now I limit smartphone access. I educate him for other activities.
But behind that I also introduced him to the internet so that he has knowledge. At the age of children, they don't really understand it yet. They are more interested in games and social media.

Yeah I have noticed under age people are first watching videos if given access to smartphone and internet and then slowly start downloading games and these days there are too curious on watching youtube shorts and tiktok videos. And I am afraid their next leap might be toward gambling. Because, no one is getting into gambling on all of sudden but most of the people get linked one by one even they start using Internet for academic purposes.

Honestly I believe these days we cannot keep our kids not getting exposed to gambling. Because even television are continuously showing advertisements on gambling and gambling houses then definitely one day or other they will check it out for what is that and what is going on there.

I get your point but the thing is, the influenced of internet is really big inside the minds of developing young adult,

Your presence is always important cause even you try hard teaching them and telling them what to do, curiosity still there inside their minds and chance that they'll going to explore for more will damage them, we are talking about possible addictions and it's really possible if we will not take this seriously.

If the activity of the user is more on children content for sure the YouTube does not give any adult content recommendation but if the user is more on gambling and adult content the YouTube will recommend to them suitable for adults.

Regardless of how many times you send your child to counseling, the fact that the modern times today requires every child to tackle on the internet, they'll still find their way to be influenced by the social media craze specifically contents not for children.
The only solution for this is to set up the device by not allowing /blocking any content intended not for kids not to show up anywhere in the web while using that specific device.

Enabling such a restrictions is possible? Do we need any app for doing that? I read all the filtering features are not perfect as most filters are being done by the captions given by its creators and when those creators target to bypass any such restrictions then they can enjoy their breaching until they get caught. This is the reason why most childsafe apps are failing in the end.

We must teach our kids for not involving into anything for long hours and continuously following and watching them for the changes in their activities will help any parent to keep their kids out of harmful activities including gambling.

Children are not experienced enough to understand exactly how risky gambling is and what we teach them, it cannot indirectly give them a better decision, it only directly supports their curiosity, such advice is not a conversation, it's just stimulating the kids' brains, helping them to search more about gambling. Why do we always try to force children to participate in phone viewing when other fun activities are still useful to them, friends are also a good thing, a psychological parent is not a rigid and forbidding parent

The first step the kids start before the online gambling or visiting say casino is betting between the friends. This is what I have seen most of the things start with any matches, or any events or situations the bets are placed and this is how slowly and gradually they start to get into online gambling or say into more deeper addiction to gambling later on.

but not all gamblers have parents who gamble too, many of them are influenced by friends
then the school and home environment must be far from bad influences so that children are free from bad influences from their friends

home, school and online activities for those who have children really must be considered very tight

Its really challenging for parents. Unable to give out 100% effort in diverting children from playing online games. Though its parents responsibility, I feel online games should be restricted. Since every online sites or gaming platform strives to grow business, its much harder to prohibit them. Keeping this in mind, its better to divert children on to physical games. Parents need to spend more time in playing with them. It would take only few months to channel the children.

Many factors make children gamble and one of the most important in my opinion is the friendship factor and also the social environment, usually children who are starting to grow up have a great curiosity about something and usually they will ask their friends who have been  before involved in gambling, so that curiosity drives them to try to do it and of course gradually this will trigger them to continue to do it, and this is where parents need a very big role to be able to control children activities in making friends, maybe children will think parents are too protective, but only we as parents can protect them from bad deeds.

The role of parents is influential here, although it will be a little difficult with the sophisticated development of the times that are increasingly sophisticated, but at least the role of parents can at least minimize this because there are so many children who are out of control because they are too free and without the role of a parent.
although gambling can be easily accessed now and indeed without certain rules, but at least children may not be suitable to be in this realm and the role of parents is very important to minimize this

There are lots of bills and recommendations of banning those online games but havent been implemented? Why? It is pretty useless because accessibility can really be possibly anywhere

which means its really hard to get rid so its no point that they would really be pushing it to happen and this is why parenting or guidance is really a must or much needed.

Even just searching online would really be having the chance on exposing into something not only in gambling but also in others as well.

Absolutely, look how many kids play Fortnite and spend their money on that or are exposed to the huge ton of mobile games. The only thing you should never do is giving away your credit card PIN, I can tell you! ;D

But even if they only have access to the games and not to your credit card, the way these games are structured is brutal from a psychological (marketing) perspective. Kids feel left behind compared to others if they meet in school and talk the newest stuff you could buy for just two USD or whatever.

Regarding gambling, that is nothing I particularly can observe among kids and teenagers. As far as I know they like to gamble at a barbecue for a couple of bucks in a poker game and stuff, some go into a casino when they reach the required age, but I don't really know or hear an overwhelming lot about addicted teenage gamblers.

That's what I've experienced before and then it has improved over time until you know most of the mechanics of each gambling game that you'll be introduced to or you'll learn as you grow. But these days, with lock downs, with the pandemic there will be more parental guidance because most kids are staying at home and hoping that most parents will be aware of it. We do gamble but we're not encouraging kids to have a knowledge or background towards gambling because they shouldn't be.

How would you keep your kid effectively from watching shit stuff on Youtube? I can tell you that's impossible, and if the kid doesn't use its own iPad, it might already hold yours in its hand. It is really difficult to exclude videos you deem bad for your kid. There is all kinds of stuff on the platform and they already know the tricks how to get the stuff rolling on the iPad that they want.

Today's children are already used to the internet, so sometimes they understand it better than their own parents. I admit it's not easy to control
what kids watch on YouTube, sometimes my 8 year old son accidentally watches adult material. Therefore, there must be good communication
between children and their parents. So children will ask their parents new things they have met, and if the material is not good, then explain well,
that it is bad for them. So far I have always maintained good communication with my son and he can understand there is content that they are
not allowed to see. Sometimes my child when he sees someone kissing immediately looks away, because I have given sex education from an early age.
Likewise with gambling content, if we explain well, our children can understand that it is not a good thing for them.

Its difficult for the children to digest the bad part of the gambling. Usually Kids treat gambling games as other online games. If we could make their interest more in other games, maybe they won't be attracted towards the gambling games.

If you have kids that are on 10 to 16 years brackets you should watch what they are watching and what they are following and bookmarking, there are so many streamers and YouTubers promoting gambling sites and they are keywords away and many of them are even recommended by Youtube as relevant contents or videos, you should educate your children on what to watch and who they follow.

These days its difficult to control the kids and children because everything is available on mobile and its hard to track all the time the activity of the children.
If you want that you want children to remain away from gambling, you should sd counselling with them and tell the pros and cons of gambling. This will help them decide better.
Children are not experienced enough to understand exactly how risky gambling is and what we teach them, it cannot indirectly give them a better decision, it only directly supports their curiosity, such advice is not a conversation, it's just stimulating the kids' brains, helping them to search more about gambling. Why do we always try to force children to participate in phone viewing when other fun activities are still useful to them, friends are also a good thing, a psychological parent is not a rigid and forbidding parent

Its difficult for the children to digest the bad part of the gambling. Usually Kids treat gambling games as other online games. If we could make their interest more in other games, maybe they won't be attracted towards the gambling games.
Not necessarily, because gambling games always provide their own charm. So, even if we direct them to other online games such as videogames which are basically not gambling but still, in the end, gambling games will still be in demand over time. Therefore, I think it would be better for children not to be given smartphones or any gadgets immediately, at least there must be an effort that children must make in order to get gadgets. For example, having to learn first to be able to access what is on the internet through a gadget, maybe the stimulation to read or study can be a diversion for his brain and it will be better and safer.

How would you keep your kid effectively from watching shit stuff on Youtube? I can tell you that's impossible, and if the kid doesn't use its own iPad, it might already hold yours in its hand. It is really difficult to exclude videos you deem bad for your kid. There is all kinds of stuff on the platform and they already know the tricks how to get the stuff rolling on the iPad that they want.

Keeping your child away from gadgets is impossible if from time to time the kid always see his/her parents holding gadgets. I never want to admit it but I think having a kid today can't be a kid like us on our generation. Today, raising a child while exposing him/her in technology is inevitable since this is what they will going to see when they going outside their home, watching videos on youtube became a way to entertain a child. Not all the time it is bad to exposed a child in technology but the strong parental guidance is strongly advice.

I must agree with you that kids are learning all the things (both good and bad) from their parents hence if we want to see a change in them then we must bring changes in our lifestyle which will definitely help us to achieve what we exactly needed. The current generation of children are more exposed to internet and TV which makes them learning everything earlier than us.

Not all the time it is bad to exposed a child in technology but the strong parental guidance is strongly advice.
In my opinion, just getting exposed to some technology will not bring them any bad but only when they are continuously using/watching that which may lead to negative consequences. Intensive parental guidance definitely will bring positive results.

Maybe the only thing we can do is always remind them to have limits when they watch something from Youtube and always beside them. We can also use Safe Search available on our gadget or them so they will not watch shit stuff that is not for their ages. The other thing that we can do is always ask them to have outdoor or offline activities so they do not feel lost if they do not use their gadget. It is not easy to raise them in this era because telecommunication is growing fast and different from our era.

There’s an option for that but if the Children is using the phone of his parents I’m pretty sure they can still access the site and they might get exposed not just in gambling but also with other malicious site. If you really want to protect your Children then guide the, gambling is not healthy for them we should not allow this but of course Youtube should also take action with regards to this matter, content create should always be responsible.
These days children teach their parents about the tech and the things on smartphones. This is what happening around, so it is hard to keep the children unexposed to gaming/gambling/other malicious activities. However the restriction might limit them from using it. Because every application has got parental control, it is YouTube, playstore or anything else. But, even if we keep it activated children are prepared to deactivate and use as they want.

The problem is the whole streaming shit from some idiots on Youtube and Twitch. Those are the idols of the 8 year old kids from today. And the real issue about this is that these "idols", big Youtubers and Twitch streamers, do in fact advertise gambling websites, play it on their stream and pretend to win thousands and thousands that they get donated by the gambling service provider anyway. That is bad! The streamers then say it is not their responsibility to take care of their audience and the age of those watching them, it's the parents responsibility. I disagree because these streamers also earn their money off of those kids with merchandising and donations and other stuff.

Yeah, most kids nowadays rely on gadgets; their recreational activities are now centered on gadgets, and the majority of kid shows are available on YouTube. Because we can't really defeat children's curiosity, it's entirely possible that they will discover gambling activities in some gadgets. Most of the kids right now are exposed to technology, it's true, you can see everywhere that many kids aren't really playing outside now to enjoy, most are on devices.

The question is, how do you draw the line between children being exposed to gambling and YouTube ads that primarily give income to YouTubers? I find it very difficult on how it could be balanced out completely since the modern age of technology has pushed children to excel at using gadgets. Given the current circumstances also due to COVID, almost all children use gadgets for their entertainment (rather than playing outside with friends, etc.) which puts them more at the risk of knowing gambling.

At this point, the intervention of parents is highly recommended in order to at least safeguard the rights and welfare of these children. Once they get exposed to gambling and their curiosity enabled them to try it, it could seriously transition to addiction.

Well you are only touching one edge of the exhibition and you are specifying it to the area that you frequent the most and so you conclude itas a total. v

The reality is that the Internet has so many dangerous areas related to gambling that is only a part, not all of the exposure and in reality it is perhaps the least dangerous in exposure, child trafficking, pornography and the list goes on of examples that can be worse and really dangerous than the pompous title "gambling exposed to children"

The world of games, the rnp, minecrat, final fantasy, GoW, etc. create more addition than the world of gambling, there is always a tendency to believe that gambling can hurt young people, yes! in those who have a weak upbringing without principles And without a guide someone of legal age to guide, I assure you that while that exists, RoL games are more dangerous.

This is an individual matter that we must face and that way of confronting as a parent this particular situation of our children on bets has repercussions on the collective and consequently on the social. You can't blame third parties.

I think it's unrealistic to protect children from gambling. Almost every child who spends his free time with his peers at least once in his life has played money in a card game and it's not about upbringing. The point is that each of us gets our own life experience, regardless of whether it's good or bad.
This is true, this is really happening nowadays to teenagers, there are so many people are now addict in gambling, there are also some students that whenever they are already dismissed at their classes, they will go to the nearest casino just to play and risk their money. This is too bad because they are still too young yet there are some casinos that still allowing them to do so.

There are casinos that allows this young adults to play even they knew that it is prohibited by laws, as long as they are not being caught in the act they are willing to take the risk for the sake of money.

Sad because the parents are working very hard just to send those kids to school without knowing what's going on and what involvement those kids are participating with.

And with the help of social medias where influenced is much easier to reached, it's really needed to protect your kids as early as possible.

Children don't have money to gamble. They can watch videos, lives and even sign up at a casino platform, but it will be useless without money anyway. Parents just need to be careful with their credit cards and crypto currency wallets, because there are some cases of children who used parents' credit cards to purchase in game items without permission. So I don't doubt a son of a crypto gambler could do the same thing using the coins of his father in order to gamble.

Another point to notice is that when a kid is too worried about gambling and earning money it's because something is missing in their house, because it's definitely not a normal thought for a kid. Kids should keep their minds busy with another kinds of ideas and activities. Parents must also guide their children this way, to make them stop thinking about stuff that don't belong to their stage of life.
If one of the parents gambles then this is not an issue as a kid could just take advantage of a mistake and then gamble that way as the casino is not going to know that the one using the account is not an adult but a kid.

However we need to understand that kids are exposed to games of chance in video games as well and even if they are not using real money they are still being exposed to the concept, so it is important to explain to them how this works in real life so they do not make a mistake in the future related to gambling.

This is one of the impacts of children's freedom in holding gadgets and consciously or not, gadgets are now a very important influence because with only one electronic device they can freely access all kinds of things. including gambling.
even for now it seems that parents will lose in their knowledge of playing with their gadgets, this is indeed very good because children can maximize technology and so they will not become technology stutterers.
but for gambling there must be exceptions especially for underage children, indeed gambling is freedom for anyone but for underage children it feels less appropriate to do let alone become a habit

Children aged -15 years are never suitable for gambling because it can damage their behavior later in life. I know that gambling is no longer strange in today's digital era, everyone can access online gambling at any time, be it at home, at work or anywhere. This can increase the number of underage children to gamble although usually gambling site have rules to prohibit children from registering on the site.

You will probably see quite often children -15 years have a smartphone and they are quite addicted to playing games. I am sure some of them may be familiar with gambling even though the intensity of gambling is very limited due to lack of money.

It depends on their mindset. At the age of 15, I doubt they will have an interest on doing gambling.

But if they really did, more on it was because of their curiosity. I'm sure at that age they already know the difference between what's the good thing to do and not. If we try to force and convince them to ignore gambling the more they want to know about it.

I'm also actually disappointed with influencers who have a large following of children, they should be wiser when promoting gambling in their content.
I know they need income from the gambling sites they promote, sometimes we as humans have to have a little conscience in making money. Don't
let the money we make make other people harm, good influencers must choose the products they will promote, not to the detriment of their
followers. But it is very difficult in today's digital era, many people put money above all else.

So there is no other choice, parents have to work hard in taking care of their children, by establishing good communication with their children.
So that all the things that their children see can be known by their parents, because if there is good communication with their parents, children
will tell whatever they have seen to their parents. Sometimes as a good parent you have to put yourself as a friend, so children do not hesitate to
tell anything to their parents. This will make it easier for parents to control their children.

Yeah, I agree with @Lordhermes as I watch some kids playing PS2 games and gamble with their friends.
I am not sure how they gamble but they use money doing that, as I heard some of them ask about the payment.
If their parents always tell them about the risk of playing gambling, I am sure they will be aware and try to stay away from gambling and not be involved in the games even if their friends ask them to join or watch.
With the growing technology nowadays, the children become smarter because they can do something that sometimes their parents do not know.
It needs more attention from the parents to guard their children's. Otherwise, it will be difficult to tell them when it is too late.

Indeed, gambling is not allowed to children who are still under -+18 years old, the rules are also written on every online gambling site.

Which is the most dangerous problem, at this time without the strict supervision of his parents, the child plunged into the world of online gaming/gambling, it happened without their parents realizing it, instead of playing ordinary games, in fact online gambling.

experience:
I once saw a child who was still in elementary school -+10 years old, my neighbor, materially his parents were rich/entrepreneurs, one day I sat drinking coffee with his parents, he told me, his son in this month is asking daily for $30, it used to be not like that, 3-4 days at most he is asking for $40 but this one month is weird, so i told his parents, have you checked your child's android phone, he said not yet, you checked first, it was true that his son was found in the room while betting on real online gambling.

Conclusion: minors, if there is no strict supervision, can lead to moral destruction in the world of gambling, online gambling sites cannot guarantee that adults over 18 years old register, 8 year olds can also enter, there are no personal documents when registering.

Problem is that not allowed doesn't mean it's not possible. Now with online gambling, given the enormous amount of time that children spend on their devices, it's almost not possible to not get exposed to some form of gambling. The same goes for the real world where slots with fancy colors attract young kids very easily. I remember when I was a kid there was that game in which you had to use a joystick to move a crane to win something. I think when I was 5 that has been my first gambling experience given I spent all my money on it (5$).

What they only know now is what they see, some children do gambling because of their parents or people around them which seems to be happy when they do gambling. Ots okay to play as long as their no momey involve, but kids nowadays put money as bet in every game they play they should be guided by rgeir parents about this.
I personally don't believe children quickly become gambling addicts, as most of the kids I know are just videogame players and can be said to be just game and non-gambling addicts. If they are teenagers or older at least they can make their own money by working, then I'm sure they will easily become gambling addicts but for children who only think about games and playing then I'm not sure they will become gambling addicts at an early age .

But there are times they are also gambling something to win in that video game. Right?
When I was a kid I learned to gamble some of my allowance for a 3x3 Counter Strike game. $3.33 per person, or $10 per team. My team and I are good at it that's why we won it but we are all underage. After that, we visit other computer shops where we are not known at and play more with money on the line.
It's addictive even being as a kid especially when you become good at it. That's where a gambler will start, small bets becomes large bets because he knew he could win it and it becomes a habit rather than going to school then find a job later on.
That's me on my time where they just presented computers, what more now if they can access everything using their smartphones.

I remember that old days, I'm not one the players but I always go with my cousins and bet with them,

Addiction start when you see your money keep growing, when you feel that the chance to win is always high the feeling or urgency
not to allow that you'll missed the chance. As a teenager back then, cutting classes just to find opponents and set a game in trust that
the money we will going to use will bring us more in returned.

Addicted may not only be that you keep on winning and your balance keeps increasing, but you can also become addicted when you keep on losing and are very curious about winning bet so that you can recover from losses. There are many ways for gamblers to become addicted even if they are just trial and error at first.

So far, I think preventing gambling addiction in children may be much more difficult, especially for those who do not get strict supervision from their parent. For a country where gambling is legal, it may not be a big deal when a child also likes something his parent like including gambling. But things are very different in a country where it is illegal, gambling is seen as bad and there are many people who are willing to reprimand and advise him when caught gambling even though the child manage to hide his gambling habit from his parent.

I personally don't believe children quickly become gambling addicts, as most of the kids I know are just videogame players and can be said to be just game and non-gambling addicts. If they are teenagers or older at least they can make their own money by working, then I'm sure they will easily become gambling addicts but for children who only think about games and playing then I'm not sure they will become gambling addicts at an early age .
Well yes children nowadays are more interested in games that has no money involve and I think they're still naive to think of earning money while playing games (atleast for children less 12 years old). But this is not often the case for kids who experience to play with incentives getting on it because it can easily hook them especially if their parents are not present to guide them. Indeed its alarming to see videos promoting casinos everywhere but parents should be held accountable if their kids are early expose on gambling because its just shows that their way of parenting is not enough to guide their kids on the right path.

the only way that this will stop is if all the social platform or streaming platform prohibits their users or content creator from advertising any type of gambling sites or if the government prohibit gambling site advertisement altogether. until that happens you'll continue seeing them. the content creators that advertise gambling sites don't really care if their audience became addicted to gambling or not. all they care about is that advertising these gambling platforms will earn them some easy bucks.

They can't stop advertising gambling-based sites on social media, because of course they will pay huge fees for platforms that promote their gambling sites, and with the development of increasingly modern technology, gambling is also increasingly popular in every circle regardless of age, this will become a bad habit for society.

When it comes to the internet, it is hard to stop the advertising as they can use many ways to promote their site and maybe that is the responsibility of each person for what they will do related to the promotion. If they do not like it, they can remove or move to the other sites or block the ads from their devices so they will not watch similar ads. We can block the ads if we want, but we will not do that because sometimes, the ads will be different from the other ads. So only be careful that we can do to prevent from the things that we do not want. And if that is related to the children, we must prevent them from watching the ads and making sure they are involved.

It should be the parent's responsibility to know, monitor and limit what content a child is consuming when they are online, plus shouldn't a child not be on the computer yet because technology retards the growth of a child especially in it's formative years which is around 1 up to 5 years of age? Give them books, play with them.
Exactly what it means mate, wee as parent must be the responsible to what our childrens future is .

watch them grow and advice them to the fullest.

If we look at almost everyone who is involved in gambling, basically they mean just for fun to be able to entertain themselves with different activities, and if they play it continuously then they will subconsciously become addicted to gambling, it is a pity nowadays gambling become widespread among teenagers, this will certainly greatly affect the mindset of those who are still in school.

It depends on how we're able to explain it to our kids. Since we've experienced it already, we know the risks and consequences of it which we won't allow to happen to our kids. As for me, early correction and clear explanation would be effective because that's our responsibility as parents. We should teach our kids to stay away from things that could harm them in the future. I don't think letting them commit mistakes first before they learn would be a good idea as parents. We should also do our part.

Children should, of course, never be exposed to gambling. As far as I can remember, all sites have a policy that you must be 18 years or older, but you can't prevent children using passports of family members to gamble with them. That is impossible to stop, let alone with bitcoins.

I've seen a lot of videos lately about promoting casinos and sports betting website.
We also promoting the casinos it doesn't mean we are committing crime, only who are violating the terms should be considered as the sinner because gambling is regulated that is why all these casinos are working. Parents can actually monitor what their kids are doing but most of them are lack of such knowledge which gives the freedom to the kids to exploit the technologies.

I know from my own experience that if a child is forbidden something, he will strive for it when his parents are not around. In my opinion it is better to give your child a tablet with a game of chance because in comparison with other games or cartoons it will seem very boring. This first impression of gambling will be negative and will be permanently imprinted in his memory. This is about the same when a child is confronted with an angry dog. Such experiences cause some people to stay away from dogs for the rest of their lives.

When you are too strict then majority of those kids would really be having that rebellious kind of behavior on where they would really be finding out ways on certain  things that do poke out their interest.

This is why its important for parenting that you should bit loose and make your children wont really be stressed out and make some ample restriction but not too much which you would be giving out

some awareness on things in life specially with gambling.Internet is within reach or with a simple flick of fingers since kids are exposed to gadgets nowadays so its really unavoidable.

Children aged -15 years are never suitable for gambling because it can damage their behavior later in life.

It depends on their mindset. At the age of 15, I doubt they will have an interest on doing gambling.

But if they really did, more on it was because of their curiosity. I'm sure at that age they already know the difference between what's the good thing to do and not. If we try to force and convince them to ignore gambling the more they want to know about it.

Today's 15-year-olds are very smart, they know that in a casino the chances of winning are very low, they seek more fun than the same money, because most of them have no obligations, I know a neighbor who is 14 years old. And what he did was play warm and then from there he went to Axie Infinity, all the time every day I think he gets the 150SLP, every day, he also plays others like cryptoblade, plants, something like that and from all those games he always accumulates a lot of money And the most important thing is that he says that he does it because he likes it, that he knows he has money but he does it for fun, it should be noted that this child spends all day on a PC playing.

Environment influences kids so if they see grown up doing it, they will also be doing it. I for example grew up where my parents are not around but with my brothers inviting a crowd under our basement and play cards and billiards. Its not surprising that even my sister knows how to deal cards like a pro.

So if gambling is exposed to children, its got an effect on them but the good part is that they learn and may not be addicted to it when they grew old. Because the interest of the kids changes over time.

lucky if the children can change and are not addicted to gambling, what if the opposite! It is important for parents to take care of the surrounding environment, be it the child's home or school so that he can avoid the bad influences that he might get. gambling, drunkenness and dating are things that children should not do.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
it is their parents and teachers that must hinder them from doing such mate and it is not the internet and vloggers problem .


Quote
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"
it is on the children bringing if they will have this view in life because this will comes from what he learned when he was growing.
Quote
The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.
if the child know how to value money in right manner then he also knew that gambling is not part of profiteering.

Quote
They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.
you are just overthinking mate , just focus on your kids if you already have one , if not then focus on your family plans in future.

Yes, that is absolutely right. The parent's job for their children is difficult because they need to supervise and look after their children until they are adults. And that jobs will not ends until the parents leave their children forever. In this era, the parent's job will be very difficult as they need to feed their children, search for money, take care of their children from anything that can disturb their life.

Suppose gambling is exposed in their children coincidentally. In that case, the parents need to explain everything, including what will happen to someone if he plays gambling too long and the risk of gambling so their children can think about the risk of playing gambling.

Hopefully that will happened as per my experienced, I know someone who grows around people who are into gambling,

As a kid he's been watching he's family playing cards, now, he's one of those known personalities in terms of gambling, always finding ways to keep on playing and to have that good chance to win. Gambling is always in him as days won't pass that he won't gamble, but most of the time he enjoyed winning and by reading his gestures he's using this venue to feed his family.

That's still illegal, as per their ToS. Anyone who is below 18 years old are not allowed to play the game, his axie team could be banned if someone will report it, so the better play on it is let his parent plays it. It is easy to play and anyone could understand it pretty quickly after watching some YouTube videos on how to play efficiently.

If he is a 18 year old kid, I would say that what he did was pretty impressive because not all of the kids thinks practically, the are more of a happy go lucky all the time.

You are right, but the child is so impressive that not only does he program in several programming languages and play games, he also handles all the documentation of his parents, since they are older adults, and he is the one who makes all the requests digitally, he is That is, the parents ask him for the favor that they can go into their banks to see if they deposited his pension, and he makes the payments of all the goods and services, which means that perhaps his registration would do it with his father's documents or his mom. And with the income he obtains, he is the one who maintains and puts money to buy the market and all the necessities, his parents do not know how he does to extract money from the computer, they only know that what the child does is not a bad thing, And because of the situation in Venezuela with pensions for the elderly it is impossible to live, their expensive medicines come from what the child does. The parents are not that old, but the father is 65 years old, and his mother 59, and they do not want to update, that is, to go in and learn to use technological tools, surf the Internet, among other things. What the father does is supervise to see what the child is involved in, he checks that he does not get into prohibited pages, but the child is not stupid, he knows that there are advertisements and many programs that carry viruses among other things, what he does The child is playing and as in a pandemic they cannot go to parks or go to play on a court due to the pandemic and insecurity, what the child does is play and watch TV.

The fact that I program in C, visual Basic, so small I see him as a genius child, who unfortunately for the country does not have many opportunities to exploit all those abilities and natural talents that he possesses.

I really agree that this should be the case, after all they are promoting a topic which is considered to be only for adults and yet they are promoting gambling shamelessly to the kids and this is simply not correct, after all when it comes to gambling you need to know very well that you are getting into an activity in which the odds are against you and despite all of this many of us still decide to gamble because we want to obtain some fun, but a kid is not going to be able to tell apart those two things and they could think that they can make a career out of it when that is not true.

Depends on the parent because there are some which could really just simply accept that but there are things which we cant really able to check or observe on even we are really that keen on checking our child
about their activities in school or even just simple on hanging out with their friends.You wouldnt know on what are the possible things that they've been doing on that time since we cant really fully check on them 24/7
which means you would really be needing them to at least made them realize on what are the harmful effects of gambling if they would really be tolerating such act or activity.

It's going to be harder if you're the type of parent that's not close to your children and you're just providing things for them. It's important to take care of your children and know the things that they learn every day as much as possible. I've seen some of the parents struggle on this part because most of them are busy with their work and businesses.

Be wondering why children are gradually venturing into gambling??  Imagine when there basic needs are not provided, Families not doing good at the point in time.... seeing news of others gambling and winning, they'll probably slide in trying to take the risk at tender Age, wanting more at this stage, which has led to failure of 85% indulging in gambling at this Age.

Online streaming activities are not age restricted even though there are notifications that only 18+ and above can watch this, if you are a father or have a younger brother then you should be suspicious and check the activity in the smartphone history, this is a step to prevent children from being involved gambling.

I've seen some of the parents struggle on this part because most of them are busy with their work and businesses. But since most people are working from home, they're going to have more time and teach their children to not engage with gambling and it's too early for them or just tell them that they shouldn't be which is better.

But there are always cases where children managed to stay away from the eyes of their parents or parents aren't doing much research on what their child is doing it's not only gambling a child can get addicted to but there is other stuff such as heroin addiction and later on, forces them to commit crime because their norm earnings can't sustain the consumption of their drugs.
Most parents even tend to get into the private life of their children just to make sure that they do not engage in activities that will not benefit them,but most children will not listen,or better still,will hide and gamble,and do some other activities that are not encouraging. Gambling has become the order of the day.Even children engage in gambling.
As a parent, it's your duty to interfere if there's something bad your children is engaging with,

There are more exposures that we can see not just on the internet but also with friends and relatives where our children are exposed.
The more we continue to chase them out, the more pressures our kids will see that they shouldn't do things like that. Sometimes annoying them is the best way to throw them out away from this gambling industry.

Yes I see a lot of people streaming online not only the children will be exposed to gambling but of course out of their curiosity they will would definitely try this out especially they are about to win real money, I think youtube and twitch are not that strict in regards with this kind of contents.

As strict as restrictions are on the Internet, they are easily circumvented, and we all know that very well. As I have already repeatedly said it makes absolutely no sense to forbid something to a child, but to teach him to fully trust you and listen to your advice and recommendations is quite possible. Once you get your child's trust you can easily find out what he does on the Internet and at the right moment you can convince him to give up this or that content or hobby.

we have a different way of disciplining our kids, me, I would never expose them to online gambling as I know if they learn, I might not be able to monitor them and since they are just kids, they are not matured enough, so they might easily get addicted, and I don't want to blame myself for being an irresponsible parent too.

It is still part of parenting. They have an important role but there's a need to know what's the root cause of it. For children that are engaged with those things early, you really have to look at how the parents take care of them. If it's not for the parent's negligence, they will find the cause of it and will help their children to teach and explain why they shouldn't be engaged with those things. Too bad for those children that are engaged with those early if they've got no parents anymore but they should have the guardian or any relative that takes care of them.

Two thoughts on this one: Firstly, any sentence that has the word "children" on it should not ever be in company of "sex", "drugs", "gambling", "working",... You know what I mean. On the other side, each age and even each culture is a different world. You have kids that are mature with 14 years and you have other that are 17 (or 40 for that matter) and have little control and responsibility over themselves.

But there may be something good about getting ripped when you are 14 following a shitty youtuber scammer - you will not be able to loose a lot, as you cannot really open an account in most places if you are underaged, and you will rarely loose a large amount of money because you probably don´t have it anyway - yet you will learn a valuable lesson for life.

Its the job or responsibility of a parent on taking good care and leading them into a good path.

How would you keep your kid effectively from watching shit stuff on Youtube? I can tell you that's impossible, and if the kid doesn't use its own iPad, it might already hold yours in its hand. It is really difficult to exclude videos you deem bad for your kid. There is all kinds of stuff on the platform and they already know the tricks how to get the stuff rolling on the iPad that they want.
Today's children are already used to the internet, so sometimes they understand it better than their own parents. I admit it's not easy to control
what kids watch on YouTube, sometimes my 8 year old son accidentally watches adult material. Therefore, there must be good communication
between children and their parents. So children will ask their parents new things they have met, and if the material is not good, then explain well,
that it is bad for them. So far I have always maintained good communication with my son and he can understand there is content that they are
not allowed to see. Sometimes my child when he sees someone kissing immediately looks away, because I have given sex education from an early age.
Likewise with gambling content, if we explain well, our children can understand that it is not a good thing for them.
The problem is the whole streaming shit from some idiots on Youtube and Twitch. Those are the idols of the 8 year old kids from today. And the real issue about this is that these "idols", big Youtubers and Twitch streamers, do in fact advertise gambling websites, play it on their stream and pretend to win thousands and thousands that they get donated by the gambling service provider anyway. That is bad! The streamers then say it is not their responsibility to take care of their audience and the age of those watching them, it's the parents responsibility. I disagree because these streamers also earn their money off of those kids with merchandising and donations and other stuff.

Sure, but the power of influencers kind of got out of control. That is why I used the word idol. These young kids see those influencers and like what they do, see them driving big cars just by making youtube videos. It gives them the impression that whatever that youtuber does, it obviously must make a lot of sense or otherwise he wouldn't have that house and that car. There is a lot of legitimization going on in kids' heads when they see all the amassed wealth and the style these guys live their "digital dream". That's a dangerous development and I am curious how this will play out. 20 years ago every second kid answered it wants to become a firefighter when grown up, today every second kid answers it wants to become a youtuber. Who is then going to fight the fire if the house is in flames?
I'm also actually disappointed with influencers who have a large following of children, they should be wiser when promoting gambling in their content.
I know they need income from the gambling sites they promote, sometimes we as humans have to have a little conscience in making money. Don't
let the money we make make other people harm, good influencers must choose the products they will promote, not to the detriment of their
followers. But it is very difficult in today's digital era, many people put money above all else.

So there is no other choice, parents have to work hard in taking care of their children, by establishing good communication with their children.
So that all the things that their children see can be known by their parents, because if there is good communication with their parents, children
will tell whatever they have seen to their parents. Sometimes as a good parent you have to put yourself as a friend, so children do not hesitate to
tell anything to their parents. This will make it easier for parents to control their children.

Yes, the role of parents is a must if they do not want to see their children become addicted to gambling in the future or when they grow up. We can not deny that but we can eliminate or prevent that thing from appearing in our children, but we need to explain to them the danger of playing gambling instead of the winning they can get. Maybe the ISP in our country will block the gambling activity showing the ad on our devices, especially if our government does not allow people to gamble.

I totally agree with you, because in cases like this parents have a very important role in preventing children from engaging in gambling, I think in this modern era it will be difficult to limit children from playing gadgets, but actually parents can approach and spend more time with their children, so that gradually children will prefer to spend time with their parents rather than playing or accessing gadgets, and I am sure if parents have a lot of time for their children, of course their children will be able to avoid bad behavior including gambling .

Normally the internet which is coming in our homes is not filtered and you can access anything on it. Since now internet can be opened on mobile too, its hard to trace the activities of the children on mobile phone. Unfortunately the world we are living in right now, it hard to control children from gambling. Even most gambling sites allow you to play without KYC, so minors can also play and lose money.  :(

So if everything good or bad is available in the internet, its no excuse for the parents that they cant control their children. They should tell the children to stay away from gambling, monitor closing where the child is spending their pocket money etc etc.

Good parents always have a way to keep a strict eye on their children and they don't run from their responsibilities.

As I have observed too children today are easily to adopt the new technology and I have also witnessed that the child teach his/her parents how to use gadgets rather than a parent who must teach the child. Today, children learned a lot of this things outside home and they are more curious to know a lot about technology which it is inevitable that they could possibly access sites that supposedly not suitable for them like gambling sites. This is a serious problem by the way but no one have had found the best solution to prevent a child being so engaged in technology.

No one can prevent them to engage in technology as the world is already changing to a digital world, but as a parent, we have to be aware of the new technology, adopt with it so we will be able to monitor and prevent our kids in accessing gambling sites or any site that is not yet suitable for their age, with knowledge, you can manage the firewall of your network and block gambling sites, that would easily solve the problem.

The problem nowadays is that parents don't want the responsability of monitoring their children, so they outsource this function to the digital gadgets or to the school members. The result are many children without any guidance, because digital devices and teachers aren't sufficient to replace parents' participation in children's lives.
The excuse is always that parents work too much, have little time to spare with their children. However it doesn't matter at all, since excuses don't solve the issue of a kid who doesn't know what is right or wrong, what he should or shouldn't do because he wasn't taught accordingly by those who generated him. If parents were more participative with their children along the day there would be less problems like gambling addiction in their lives futurely.

Their young minds will definitely think of it most of the time and cannot stop getting on it from time to time if they've introduced and discovered those things that they shouldn't. Like gambling and other internet materials that are too innocent for their minds and eyes. We all know it and if you're a parent you understand that because when we're on our younger days up to teenage days, we know how it goes.

If the parents can not watch over their children, do not give them gadgets and make them spend their time alone because that can make them visit the site they should not be. It is better if their parents stay beside them if they want to use gadgets so parents can know what they're doing.

It is important to teach them how to manage money at their ages so they can do better when they grow up and will not try to spend their money without something they do not really need. They can know that they do not have to gamble to make money when they grow up and it is better to save their money on other things.

The children who are exposed to gambling will surely do the same and those children will also start gambling. I have seen below 18 gambling by using games as their platform and they fight whoever wins and winner takes the money. Even as of now, I have seen a young boy bet on a team where he think that the team he bet will win and the results will be known once the game ends using either first person shooting games or games like dota 2 and more.

If a Youtuber is a children friendly channel they should not be advertising gambling services and if they are they should be banned from the platform or at least shunned by the community. Youtubers know what their demographic is because those stats are given to creators and if they look at those and then decide to advertise and sell out because of money and put children in harms way that should be a criminal offense and not just a ban worthy on Youtube.

Children aged -15 years are never suitable for gambling because it can damage their behavior later in life.

It depends on their mindset. At the age of 15, I doubt they will have an interest on doing gambling.

But if they really did, more on it was because of their curiosity. I'm sure at that age they already know the difference between what's the good thing to do and not. If we try to force and convince them to ignore gambling the more they want to know about it.

Gambling is all over the internet these days but as parents, we should know how to protect our kids from it no matter where they are. It might sound hard since we don't know what they're doing when they're outside but if we'll explain to them the risks of gambling and the effects of it, they would know how to avoid it. It's how we raise our children.

Blocking access to gambling sites on your home network will not achieve anything. Tomorrow the child will go out and his friend will offer to play gambling games that he installed on his smartphone.

It is very important to build a relationship with your child without resorting to any prohibitions. Today you have banned your child from playing smartphone, tomorrow you banned him from watching TV until he learned his lessons the day after tomorrow you banned him from eating candy. In a week the child has adopted this experience and permanently denied you access to his private life.

Gambling cannot be played without money. So all those children who are playing online gambling who is funding them ? Where they are getting all this money from ?

For sure, the parents are themselves given them the money to play gamble and if this is true, its a sad realty.  :(

Actually it is not too difficult if we are smart to limit the use of smart phones or the like and stay under surveillance because in our family we are not alone, there are wives or other family members if there are.
Accompany them when learning online and if your child wants to watch you tube, and you have prepared shows that your child likes by downloading as many as possible. so that your child watches you tube offline whose data you have turned off and you also have to limit the time.
and in addition to limiting its use, you must also be able to divert it to positive things because children's activities have certain hours such as naps, playing and also watching television with appropriate shows.
Of course you can and that includes discipline and you have to be firm, because otherwise the internet today sometimes has lots of advertisements and sites that are not worth accessing and my wife and I apply it to my two children who are 12 and 9 years old

Whatever the reason, parents play a huge role in what their children do and while they can do it without being behind it, parents need to be more sensitive and know if one day their child sees an advertisement or gambling site what to do. tell your child before he knows it and if they see an ad or site not to click because it is dangerous and depends on how people tell them.

And we can't blame the game companies because they also don't know who is in it, they are adults or children and the company just provides services without being responsible for anything that happens.

The problem is not the children, even if parents were to be strict to keep an eye on their kids they will always find ways to do it behind their parents.  I think gambling companies promosing to pay however can market their products to the world could be paid for their service is the origin of the problem and we all know that we humans are prone to error and temptation and this should be the responsibility of gaming companies not to expose kids to these services.


Whatever the reason, parents play a huge role in what their children do and while they can do it without being behind it, parents need to be more sensitive and know if one day their child sees an advertisement or gambling site what to do. tell your child before he knows it and if they see an ad or site not to click because it is dangerous and depends on how people tell them.

And we can't blame the game companies because they also don't know who is in it, they are adults or children and the company just provides services without being responsible for anything that happens.
Parenting does have a big role when it comes to raising their kids because if they were guided correctly then most likely they would really be aware and would able to avoid not only the harmful effects of gambling but also with other things as well depending on what you do taught into your child.

In our era today where we are almost connected to internet on whatever or the simpliest things that we do which its not really impossible for our child to engage nor able to meet up those things which aren't supposed or right for their age.

This is why proper guidance is a must but there are things which are unavoidable.

Even at that if they parents of this kids where their friends and got involved in the full day-to-day activities of this kids it would help reduce some level of risky adventure this children engage in. Sometimes parents believe their children knows what the ought to do forgetting that even as adults we make mistakes how much more the children. This children needs parents who could be a part of their life sticking more closer than a best friend this way their parents will know the activities of their child and help guide them.

It is bad that our children are born to meet gambling as a game,which will drain and suck them financially and emotionally of the little dime they got.The internet is a tool that facilitates online gambling,but since it can't be scrapped off,we just have to bear,and make do with it as one of the disadvantage of the internet.
Well, here the role of parents is very important to control their children, to keep controlling their activities on the internet which often opens certain videos with smartphones. But in my place.. the video about the gambling site has not been clearly listed/often appears on youtube or other social media.
To me parents are responsible for the activities of there children cause some parents would never tend to educate and talk to them in a polite way that will attract the children and bring the children more closer to them. Children are exposed to contents found on the internet whether bad or good and they are very attracted to those things that look promising with fake assurance. Gambling is not bad but there should be ways of controlling it in children in adolescent.

it's one hard part for me as a parent because i also wanted my kid to learn everything. its hard to teach kids all at once because as a parent you can't monitor each of the things they search while everything we do during lockdowns is online even the school extra activity is done online. although i wanted to limit what she sees on youtube or anything she searches, the ads appearing are very attractive to resist a click. it's hard to explain when the kid didn't experience gambling yet.

Actually it is not too difficult if we are smart to limit the use of smart phones or the like and stay under surveillance because in our family we are not alone, there are wives or other family members if there are.
Accompany them when learning online and if your child wants to watch you tube, and you have prepared shows that your child likes by downloading as many as possible. so that your child watches you tube offline whose data you have turned off and you also have to limit the time.
and in addition to limiting its use, you must also be able to divert it to positive things because children's activities have certain hours such as naps, playing and also watching television with appropriate shows.
Of course you can and that includes discipline and you have to be firm, because otherwise the internet today sometimes has lots of advertisements and sites that are not worth accessing and my wife and I apply it to my two children who are 12 and 9 years old
I partly diagree with your opinion, because many families dont have this opportunity. Many people have to educate their children completely alone without any help of others. In these circumstances control is not possible.

when three of you the mother, father, and your kid are locked in a city where your relatives are from far islands of the archipelago, you have limited options in teaching your kid. the covid virus had limit everyone and everything on this planet. all we have is online space and while VR is not fully developed. but if VR is developed, gambling will also be revolutionized through VR and casinos will still be exposed to kids.

it's inevitable and it's best that she just learn it from me that i can say, all these are just entertainment and there is far cheaper entertainment out there like netflix.

If someone wants to gamble, they can't be stopped anyway. And when do you recognize that your child will have that tendency? It used to be quite easy to keep him away from gambling as there were no online casinos and gambling sites back then. now the threshold is very low to start gambling.

I think parents have to educate their children about the implications of getting involve in gambling. Some parents don't have enough time to monitor the activities of their children. Many children however place their bet through online gambling sites, because they basically can't go to a Gambling hall. The internet can't be scraped out, but we have to guide and teach them about the disadvantages of using the internet.

I agree but to teach them about those disadvantages you have to let them practice it. Just making a lesson like a teacher won't change anything in their mind. I think they should learn how to gamble and manage a bank roll. Gambling games are usually available in demo mode or "fun play" as they called it at Stake but it's better to let them play with few real cryptos to understand how a budget works IMO.

YouTube has already provided parents with their special and unique app YouTube Kids which was made taking into account kids of specific ages and this app possibly does not allow any such ads to take place for kids to keep enjoying their usual videos. If parents are worried about the advertisements, they can buy YouTube Premium to keep ads away and let their children have a seamless experience of watching videos with ease on YouTube. Least that they can do is, download the videos and let their kids watch them on YouTube even if the phone is offline (not connected to internet), or download the videos on the phone that is available through various YouTube video downloaders.

Gambling is not bad up to an extent if played with care and if parents let their child do it under their supervision, and don't let their kids fall for its addiction, we don't think that it may ruin a kid's life considering that kids have fear of their parents and they will not commit anything that could cause problems for their parents.

That is a job for every parent to educate their children for good things and tell the bad things so they can think about the risk and consequences for them if they are trying to involve. At their ages, they will think that if they see something that looks strange, they will ask their parents and we, as their parents, need to explain to them and not let them search for themselves because they can get the wrong information.

If we can guide and teach them about what they want to know and accept it, they will not try to get in on the gambling games because they have already been told that is too risky for them. Giving some examples will convince them not to try it even if they grow up in the future.

No, I don't think so children have fertile mind what you sow on them in their early years it will linger on, once they learn the strategy and tasted victories they will be tempted to try their luck and use money, they might even use their school allowance to gamble. let them learn gambling at the right time, and the right time is when they can afford to decide what is right for themselves, gaming is ok for them it develop skills in decision making but never gambling.

That's true, parents rarely monitor internet activities and it's only a matter of time until their child gets exposed since a lot of games offer similar ways to gamble. Even if they know the actual value of money won't be enough since they also need to understand the issue between gambling and how it'll affect their lifestyle at a young age.

No, I don't think so children have fertile mind what you sow on them in their early years it will linger on, once they learn the strategy and tasted victories they will be tempted to try their luck and use money, they might even use their school allowance to gamble. let them learn gambling at the right time, and the right time is when they can afford to decide what is right for themselves, gaming is ok for them it develop skills in decision making but never gambling.
That's why parents need to step in because gambling is a common topic and not everyone is fortunate enough to learn gambling at the right time.

If you will just tell them this and that but without complete explanation and understanding then they will only get interested and curious more than anything and the chance of sneaking to try playing and betting is indeed will happen.
|make them completely understand and knows the Good and Bad side of gambling so as they grow old they will keep that on mind and even if time comes they are already can make decision for themselves at least they knew to value the ethics of gambling and not just by winning but also to enjoy and self control.

I go with your comparison, gaming is good in developing skills while gambling should not be practiced in their early age. Kids love to push for more when they see easy money.

They will keep doing things and the worse things when situation leave them empty pocket because of gambling, they will start stealing money.

To avoid that, parents' responsibilities are not to let them engaged to this business as early decision making is not yet fully ripe,
better to keep them away from this activity.

If there are parents that allow their kids to gamble at an early stage, they are open-minded parents but I don't see parents do that casually. It's hard to know if their kids won't fall into addiction because they might find out that their kids are playing even without their supervision. You'll never understand how it is going to happen or if you do, we've been through that process and there's no way to stop that unless there's early prevention coming from the parents.

in my country, only stupid parents teach or let children play gambling when they are small
children have no income, they will definitely try to make money to gamble by stealing parents' money or doing other negative actions

Gamblers who do not have a fixed income will definitely try to get money to gamble in any way, it cannot be denied

Well, those parents don't have much income to sustain their needs. They shouldn't do this to their kid, they shouldn't hope that their kid got lucky and win and even allow them to gamble. That's what happens in some places that there's no that much source of income, they think that gambling can save them. Although there are those people that made their lives amazing and good through it but it also depends to the situation and if they're not having the good situation to do it, they shouldn't do it.

Those children need to be guided by their parents so they do not try to learn or know how to gamble, although they can still get that way from their friends. But if their parents can be strict with their rules not to let their children know about gambling, they will not try to gamble.

The fact is we see many people who do not have a fixed income trying to gamble to make money. But in the end, they lose all money in gambling and they feel desperate, which can attract them to commit a crime.

Yes, guidance is always needed to avoid those kinds of situations where children are now getting curious about gambling. Kids are easy to get curious on such things especially if these things are getting his attention like card games in gambling. If a child is taught about the reality of gambling and how it works, he is unlikely to do it because he knows it is wrong and should be avoided. Parental supervision is really essential to us and plays a significant role.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

This is definitely something that is indeed a little controversial for most gambling sites since if they do ask for the documents to make sure that people are not underage then people don't tend to take them seriously and at the end these sites are specifically avoided.

I do think that when we are talking about cryptocurrencies like bitcoins, Any gambling platforms related to them would definately have probelms in this sector since most of the gambling places looks like kids videos games and someone might just come and use their parents card to pay.

But this issue needs to be taken seriously since it can cause long term damage, both socially and mentally.

I would like to share the below. Today I received a clip on my Whatsapp. A boy was just moving his fingers around thinking he was holding a mobile and playing a game on it.  But he did not have any mobile device on his hand. He lost himself. His parents were just calling him by his name touching him. He was just seeing his hands as though he was holding a mobile in his hand playing. Really feel bad to see it. Children are easily got up on online games and gambling or what so ever.

Its really better to divert him to something else. Better lets engage our children on playing something with us like we used to play when we were kids. Its not only that they will get engaged into full-time gambling, but also will mentally get affected. They wont even realize whats really happening around them. Its the right time to rescue our children. Though we are totally taken up going to offices or business, we should engage ourselves with our children. There were our responsibility falls on. This is what this generation loose from their parents.

I am currently experiencing this behavior in my son recently that makes me wonder why children are so attached to playing mobile phone games lately, my son spends a good amount of time playing games at first I was not bordered since he seems to cash fun but again am afraid if he continues this way he may progress into full-time gambling which is something I will not like him to get involved in not at this age.

Its really better to divert him to something else. Better lets engage our children on playing something with us like we used to play when we were kids. It not only they will get engaged to full time gambling. They mentally get affected. They wont even realize whats really happening around them. Its the right time to rescue our children. Though we are totally taken up going to offices or business, we should engage ourselves with our children. There were our responsibility falls on. This is what this generation loose from their parents. 
Good parenting would be the key.Its part of your responsibility on taking out actions which could really be good for them and wont able to engage into those things which will really be putting them into risk.
Your children would realize that those things are bad on their current age and even when they do get old then its always been ideal that gambling shouldnt really be touched up as far as you can.
Explain them about the risk but everything could be still ending up on their own decision because we do have our own will as we do grow old this is why when they are still young
then proper guidance or handling is a must.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

Unfortunately it seems to be a fact of life that regulators are always 5-10 years behind the trends and take another 5-10 years to make effect laws to protect the most vulnerable. That is generally the case in the most stable and developed countries, it's even worse for others who have weak governance. "Innovative" businesses are always trying to push the limits while chasing money and targeting streamers/so-called influencers is the latest trend right now - they are generally clueless about advertising laws, just seeing the massive wads of cash thrown at them. There needs to be more examples made of this deceptive form of marketing and product endorsements should be banned because it is too open to abuse.

Gambling is not bad up to an extent if played with care and if parents let their child do it under their supervision, and don't let their kids fall for its addiction, we don't think that it may ruin a kid's life considering that kids have fear of their parents and they will not commit anything that could cause problems for their parents.
If there are parents that allow their kids to gamble at an early stage, they are open-minded parents but I don't see parents do that casually. It's hard to know if their kids won't fall into addiction because they might find out that their kids are playing even without their supervision. You'll never understand how it is going to happen or if you do, we've been through that process and there's no way to stop that unless there's early prevention coming from the parents. Kids these day, if you give them the favor, they're going to abuse it.

In this you are right, I think the best thing is that children who play do not play online, but play offline, there are many games and there are no dangers of addiction when parents have their full supervision, the danger lies when children play online , and they start to see unwanted advertisements.

In addition, the advantage that they do not play online is that there are no chats where they can interact with the players, there are many who are malicious that can do damage from there.

I would like to share the below. Today I received a clip on my Whatsapp. A boy was just moving his fingers around thinking he was holding a mobile and playing a game on it.  But he did not have any mobile device on his hand. He lost himself. His parents were just calling him by his name touching him. He was just seeing his hands as though he was holding a mobile in his hand playing. Really feel bad to see it. Children are easily got up on online games and gambling or what so ever. 
Children get addicted to things so easily most especially mobile /video games and it's the duty of parents to help this young ones because  despite the education the receive and how intelligent they may appearance the still lack the full experience to operate in this digital era and if parents keep a busy schedule without having time to guide and advice their wards on how to adapt to the society without endangering their future the will go about feeling the are actually living the life the way it ought to be lived.

in my country, only stupid parents teach or let children play gambling when they are small
children have no income, they will definitely try to make money to gamble by stealing parents' money or doing other negative actions

Gamblers who do not have a fixed income will definitely try to get money to gamble in any way, it cannot be denied
Don't assume that being open-minded by letting children gamble from a young age is a wise parent
Those children need to be guided by their parents so they do not try to learn or know how to gamble, although they can still get that way from their friends. But if their parents can be strict with their rules not to let their children know about gambling, they will not try to gamble.

The fact is we see many people who do not have a fixed income trying to gamble to make money. But in the end, they lose all money in gambling and they feel desperate, which can attract them to commit a crime.
Yes, guidance is always needed to avoid those kinds of situations where children are now getting curious about gambling. Kids are easy to get curious on such things especially if these things are getting his attention like card games in gambling. If a child is taught about the reality of gambling and how it works, he is unlikely to do it because he knows it is wrong and should be avoided. Parental supervision is really essential to us and plays a significant role.
I think underage people can get the documents to verify themselves and pretend that they are adult people who will allow gambling. That is not a surprise if children can do that, especially if they are under 17-18 years, because they can use the other adult identity to verify or ask for help from the adult closest to them.

When it comes to cryptocurrency, they can hide their identity by playing gambling as the site won't check and it is difficult to know who is behind those devices. Besides that, children or under 17-18 years can play gambling from their gadgets or computers in their room before going to bed.

Yes, this issue needs to be a concern from the parents and they need to discuss with their kids what they can do and what not.

Two thoughts on this one: Firstly, any sentence that has the word "children" on it should not ever be in company of "sex", "drugs", "gambling", "working",... You know what I mean. On the other side, each age and even each culture is a different world. You have kids that are mature with 14 years and you have other that are 17 (or 40 for that matter) and have little control and responsibility over themselves.

But there may be something good about getting ripped when you are 14 following a shitty youtuber scammer - you will not be able to loose a lot, as you cannot really open an account in most places if you are underaged, and you will rarely loose a large amount of money because you probably don´t have it anyway - yet you will learn a valuable lesson for life.

True but it is going to be hard, even if you don't use those terms while explaining they will eventually get to know of them on websites like coinmarketcap and some trading websites that promote services through their ad slots.
And there's a good chance it will have some sort of gambling service and children getting into those websites through those links, so yes it's really hard to keep children away from gambling without censoring the information.

It's the fault of the parents, for tolerating the affinity of the child to gadgets at a really young age and using it as a pacifier when the child is doing a tantrum which is the stupid thing to do. For me, there should be some sort of seminar for would be parents on how to do parenting the right way and to help in developing the child's brain during their formative years which is what many parents forgot to do because they allow the use of mobile phones.

This is true.

Parental guidance is what gonna make your children mature at a very young age to determine what's good and bad for them, which ideally good because your children will take care of themselves at a very young age instead of playing too much and being carefree too much. And about the "becomes smarter with a device", I think I might disagree with that since most of the children misunderstood the right use of the devices as a kid.

Most of them would search KPOP and other adult stuffs on it if they accidentally searched it or some of their silly friends suggest it to them.

I agree that a device can make a child smarter, provided of course it is well used.
I, for example, had little access to the internet as a child and could have developed my teachings much better if I had access to content in the "palm of my hand" than having to go to the school library every week to search through huge books and encyclopedias, so many times already outdated.
Today many people can learn a new language just through the computer screen and almost for free, until a few years ago this was something expensive and time-consuming.

Of course, entertainment is something every child needs to have as well, and educational online games can also encourage reasoning. Unfortunately not gambling.

In my childhood there were no gadgets and we spent all our free time outside playing soccer or riding bikes. Just like today's children, we didn't like to read books or study. Understanding that you need to learn and develop comes years later.

And in fact we ourselves have created a reality in which to provide for his family should spend a lot of time working. It's unfortunate that many children have to learn about the world through a smartphone or tablet because their parents are always busy.

Yes, basically when they are children, whatever gadget they use, it should be the responsibility of the parents, which means, parents still have full control to control their every activity on the gadget. Because of the guidance or not, children over time will know all that because of the environment as well. But if parents can continue to supervise their children during their growing up period, then I believe children who get more supervision than their parents will understand what is good and what is bad for them even if they are aware of gambling and pornography.
The ultimate thing that they shouldn't even do is that they shouldn't even let the children hold gadgets that doesn't help them in their formative years because whether we don't like it or like, those formative spent on gadgets is going to retard the growth of the mind of the children.

Correct! if possible, better not to let them or minimize and always be there whenever they use their gadgets, we can't be remove anything once they already learned how to explore the internet.

But by limiting and by always be on their sides each time they have the chance to use the gadgets, will not allow them to explore more.

As parents, we should need to always be ready to explain why we are avoiding them to overuse the gadgets and the internet as they'll going to ask that since they are seeing it from other kids around them.

I wouldnt see this as a good idea and as a parent i wouldnt really be teaching my child any forms of gambling and wont really be making out some demo about it as best as i can.

You could eventually tell your children without the need of demonstration because once they do get hold or knowledge on how to gamble then you cant assure if they would really be avoiding it on next time encounter

or would dive in to play just because they do already know on how to play and we know that young minds are way too curious in things which its high probability that it could really happen.

Limits have to be set to avoid this possibility, most parents love their children and want for them to have what they did not had as children, but besides giving them an easy live it is also necessary to put in them the values you consider important, so it is important to teach them that there are many other ways to entertain yourself than to look at an electronic device all day, and in that case the chances they develop an addiction to gambling, social media or video games will be significantly reduced.

Keeping children away from gadgets in today's modern era is certainly a difficult thing because indeed it has become their entertainment, especially those who introduce gadgets to these children are their own parents, I see in my country even parents have bought gadgets for their children who are only 7 years old and they make excuses for their children to be busy playing games so as not to cry or disturb their parents work.
Then when we introduce something that we don't deserve to give to children, will they easily let it go?
I do not think so...!

What you say has happened a lot now, I even find it sad to see some children around where I live can access gambling sites with the gadgets they
have. This should be a serious concern, especially for parents who do have children under the age of 18. We can start from ourselves by educating
our children which things they can access and which they don't have to access. if we are not married or have no children, there is nothing wrong
with advising those closest to us who already have children how dangerous the internet world is without supervision.

Yes, gambling is a threat to children no matter what gadget they use when children grow up at this age. They will become accustomed to what their parents teach them therefore, they should refrain from gambling until they reach a certain age otherwise it will hinder their growing age.

Yes, it is. With this pandemic, children are now more into gadgets because that's the only means for now. Unfortunately. But even with this situation, the parents should still be responsible with their kids about the limits of usage of electronic gadgets. Because if not, kids will always be kids and they will play as long as they want. They still need supervision. Parents should also be open for discussion when it comes to gambling games.

This is true.

Parental guidance is what gonna make your children mature at a very young age to determine what's good and bad for them, which ideally good because your children will take care of themselves at a very young age instead of playing too much and being carefree too much. And about the "becomes smarter with a device", I think I might disagree with that since most of the children misunderstood the right use of the devices as a kid.

Most of them would search KPOP and other adult stuffs on it if they accidentally searched it or some of their silly friends suggest it to them.
Children misunderstood the right use of the devices as a kid. Their parents do not guide them to use it with the right because their parents were too busy with their worlds. That is why we see many cases of abusing Facebook account or other social media, even sex in that social media. We knew many underages offers themselves to adult people because those kids want to have much money in their ages using many ways.

If their parent can guide them, I am sure many kids will be saved and grow up as they like. Maybe there is a need to ask them how they are prohibited from using their mobile phone for just one day and see how they will react.

The development of technology is indeed very good for human life, but if we are not careful, it will have a negative effect on the younger generation.
What you say has happened a lot now, I even find it sad to see some children around where I live can access gambling sites with the gadgets they
have. This should be a serious concern, especially for parents who do have children under the age of 18. We can start from ourselves by educating
our children which things they can access and which they don't have to access. if we are not married or have no children, there is nothing wrong
with advising those closest to us who already have children how dangerous the internet world is without supervision.
The technology is like a knife that has two faces. If we can use it with the right, we will get the benefits, but we can drag into a crime if it is not.

Yes, it happened in many places. I see not just gambling, but many are too open about sex and sarcasm and can not respect older people. I do not know if their parents do not teach about that, but I realize that it is because of a wrong association with their friends.

Hopefully, parents can realize that their kids are too important because if they can teach good to their kids, they will have children who are devoted to their parents.

I agree with your thoughts, that why parents should really be able to supervise and direct their children properly in every use of the internet today, if parents are careless in providing good education for children, it will certainly make the child have bad behavior later , especially now that the government recommends doing online learning, and children get the freedom to use their laptops, smartphones or tablets and if there is no strict supervision of course they will access bad things in between their study time, in my opinion, 80% of children today are smarter in accessing the internet than their parents.

You are right. I agree that 80% of children are smarter than their parents, so when they access the internet, besides doing online learning at their home, they also play games that can make them addicted and forget their duty as a student. I rarely find children who learn from the internet than those who play games or I can say the number of them will be bigger for those who play games than studying.

We can imagine what will happen to them if they visit the gambling games coincidentally. Maybe they will invite their friends to play gambling games together at one of their homes because their parents are too busy with their work.

In today's world, parents are becoming careless for some reasons that is why they can't supervise their children most of the time and knowing that most of the people are using the internet there really is a high chance that they might see some gambling sites or anything that is related to gambling.

Some possible reasons why parents can't supervise their children is:
1. Work - This is the main reason. Parents go to their work leaving their children with either their maids or any of their relatives who are just watching them and aren't seeing what they are doing in their gadgets.
2. Parents themselves - There are some parents out there who really is careless thus, children will have a higher chance of getting exposed to these gambling sites or gambling apps.

On the other hand though, there might be a chance that whenever the child see that site they will be curious and will ask to their parents if what is that site or app. As a parent, you must know what are the good and bad things the child must know and these gambling apps or sites are a bad thing for them :).

Limits have to be set to avoid this possibility, most parents love their children and want for them to have what they did not had as children, but besides giving them an easy live it is also necessary to put in them the values you consider important, so it is important to teach them that there are many other ways to entertain yourself than to look at an electronic device all day, and in that case the chances they develop an addiction to gambling, social media or video games will be significantly reduced.

Keeping children away from gadgets in today's modern era is certainly a difficult thing because indeed it has become their entertainment, especially those who introduce gadgets to these children are their own parents, I see in my country even parents have bought gadgets for their children who are only 7 years old and they make excuses for their children to be busy playing games so as not to cry or disturb their parents work.
Then when we introduce something that we don't deserve to give to children, will they easily let it go?
I do not think so...!

Got your point and I can admit to that, as a parent, I do sometimes use gadgets to keep my kids away from me while working. Instead of playing with them or answering every question they've got, I'm allowing them to play in their own gadgets or let them watch videos from YouTube.

Simple and easy to see them quietly enjoying, but I also making sure that all the games that inside their gadgets are games that I fully allow them and those videos though sometimes there are channels which is not good as influenced that I may skip but mostly If I've got the chance I quickly ask them to change it up.

Being a parent ain't easy but due to love that we have for our kids, we don't want them to be exposed especially with things that will harmed them not only as young kids but until they grow we should always need to be there for them.

Gambling at such a young age is not open to children it will push them into more destruction. From this time onwards their physical development begins to slow down and they cannot judge right from wrong many are prone to emotions at present we do not have enough play space so children and teenagers are relying on electronic devices at home. Being accustomed to brain dependent games, forgetting body dependent games getting physically lazy children's physical and mental growth is not going well, they are slowly becoming addicted to gambling due to technology dependence.
In theory gambling should not be available to kids but we know that the theory and the reality are not the same, we know that kids thanks to the Internet have access to a lot of stuff that is not good for them and this is not going to change even if you are able to put some filters on their devices.

So the only way to avoid that your kids gamble is to be honest with them and tell them why this is not a good idea and hope they understand and appreciate the lesson you are imparting to them.

Yes, there are other things that the parents can do for their children offline and won't show and teach them how to gamble because that will give their children initial thoughts that it is okay to gamble because their parents say so. I agree about having the chat online, they can read things, nasty chats from other people that they don't even know if they will be introduced to it and that's a good solution just to find something to play with offline.
I wouldnt see this as a good idea and as a parent i wouldnt really be teaching my child any forms of gambling and wont really be making out some demo about it as best as i can.

You could eventually tell your children without the need of demonstration because once they do get hold or knowledge on how to gamble then you cant assure if they would really be avoiding it on next time encounter

or would dive in to play just because they do already know on how to play and we know that young minds are way too curious in things which its high probability that it could really happen.
Well, I'm also against it and that's why I agree if there are other things offline that they can do and won't show anything that's related to gambling or teach their children with that in any sense that would be the better idea. We know how the new generation of kids today.
They're very well with technology and they won't stop if they've started anything that has been told them to start. They'll adopt that until they grow up and that's why it is important to teach only something that's going to be good for them.

Children are mostly influenced by what they are told,and what they see their friends doing.Gambling has become what every one is doing,and therefore children are not an exception.
Easy access to phone has even made it more easier for children to know how to gamble,because they see it every day on line,they see their elder brothers gambling,and so therefore,they are influenced to do so.
They discuss about it at where they gather to play,so therefore,they are tempted to gamble.The society today have made gambling too known to the extent children always want to gamble the moment they have little fund at their disposal.

I totally agree with you, we should talk to our children and explain to them what the pros (if any) and cons of gambling are. We shouldn't render gambling as if it is forbidden fruit because, in that case, our kids will have dangerous temptations to taste it. Gambling is entertainment, and you pay your money to make some fun. Sometimes you are lucky, which means you get your money back and even more. Sometimes you are not. You take risks, play, win and lose. No need to risk your last savings, do not turn fun into a sick addiction. If you can have fun without investing money and without taking risks, do it. Kids, unlike adults, are very ingenious in finding ways to make fun. You shouldn't restrict them, you should encourage them to think critically.

This is all correct, but there is a huge problem, which is that every child communicates not only with parents, but also with other children at school.  And these children may be too bad and give your child a trashy example and behavior and actions.  There is also influence directly from the Internet.  
Finally, the age of the child comes when he does not listen to his parents at all, do not perceive and the parents lose their authority and influence on the child.  
This is the main problem.

You can restrict that through the admin's control and access to your network or, you can simply block most of the websites you think that your children will visit through their gadgets if they own one. There's a way to block their access through it if you think that you cannot stop them. It's a choice for allowing them and make them exposed on it but if you don't want them to be exposed, you have to do something like this in order to stop them.

Parents probably really don't communicate better with their children than kids their age and live in the same environment with them every day, the hidden and gambling-related threat that can be brewed from the innocent and shared moments of children, therefore, except for the communication space, parents should also choose a suitable environment for their children, pay more attention to the teacher's teaching style and be wary of strange actions. Finally, parents should understand their child's personality well, sometimes pure and innate docility can determine the likelihood of exposure to gambling.

It would be pointless because if you do tend nor plan on blocking them via Router or admin access then they could just simply switch on to mobile date which means they could really make out some access without you knowing and blocking it into their phone is something not really that effective as they could simply bypass it with ease.Nowadays this technology does really help out about accessibility into certain things online.
No matter how you do hate for them to access or touching those things but still they would likely to experience nor having some exposure in to it.
Thing here is on how you do make out some good parenting.

Yes, for some parents this is the option to stop their children from watching unsuitable material but this is not to say that they'll never watch it or even then have access to it. They can still do so from their phone or their friends phone, or through other means.

Which is why it is more important to explain the risks and why their access was limited, in this manner they're more likely to see eye to eye and understand. But for sure exposure of children to gambling is not healthy and should be avoided at all costs.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

I think education will be the only thing that can save children from getting addicted to gambling. The standard of education seems to vary so wildly, even with supposedly consistent curriculums and key topics are often brushed over or not fully explored. Math for instance can teach kids complex subjects like algebra/calculus but the practical usage of such calculations are often missing. It would be far better in terms of gambling to try and practically explain how odds work, how compounding works, what mortgages/interest rates/credit cards/debts are and how making the wrong decision (like borrowing then wasting large sums) can really affect them long term. They need to be taught some of the many tricks that put psychological pressure on them and be taught as independent thinkers, rather than simply following the crowd.

The ultimate thing that they shouldn't even do is that they shouldn't even let the children hold gadgets that doesn't help them in their formative years because whether we don't like it or like, those formative spent on gadgets is going to retard the growth of the mind of the children.

At this point in time, we can't do that the world is in pandemic and many countries are on lockdown, so the classes are held online children are now using gadgets just to go online, and since they cannot go out to play, they have nothing to go to but their gadgets to play on their favorite gaming sites, to watch their favorite artist on Youtube, gadgets are part of growing up of kids now.
Unfortunately this is the case, I have never been very friendly to the idea of the kids spending a lot of time in front of those devices as I think it hinders them somewhat, especially when it comes to the interaction with their peers, but right now this is not a choice, kids need to use those devices to learn and to interact with other kids as in many places classes are still not taking place and kids need to study remotely, which in turn exposes them to all kind of dangers including the possibility of gambling at an early age.

For some reason that we need to prepare for the worse as these kids, might our kids already get involved in gambling in the coming days? From simply playing games, now it was another form of gambling. These gadgets will have a bad impact on their life but also we can't deny that this helps them to gain more knowledge and awareness of what is happening today. Maybe it was a sort of control given to them but for sure it was a big challenge especially when we are working leaving our children at home having their gadgets.

A few nut jobs have demanded that porn/gambling sites should perform facial verification using the webcam before granting access to any user. The real intention here is not to protect the children, but to invade on the privacy of the ordinary users. Children should not have access to uncensored internet in the first place. Porn/gambling sites should be blocked in their browser. Now it is ridiculous to ask the sites to do facial verification and all, because in that case no one is going to visit these sites.

One of the reason people won't allow that to happen, the security part is good but also dangerous.

Why bother allowing yourself being scan for you to access the site, it will interfere with your own security, if you intend to prevent your kids being exposed to this kind of business. Check them out it's always your obligation to know what your kids are doing when using their devices. Proper guidance will help them avoid this sites online.

I agree that it is a difficult thing to do especially in these times with the pandemic still around, but there are many options for kids to be entertained, however the issue is that requires the involvement of the parents and many do not want to deal with it and as such it is easier for them to give their kids an electronic device and have them sit down facing at the screen all day, but if we want to avoid this to happen to our kids then sacrifices need to be made and we must dedicate time to them so they do not develop issues due to staring at those devices all day.

Porn/gambling sites should be blocked in their browser. Now it is ridiculous to ask the sites to do facial verification and all, because in that case no one is going to visit these sites.

This is a standard scheme that is used everywhere to deprive citizens of basic rights - all restrictions are introduced in the name of something good "child protection", "fight against drugs" and so on. and as a result, an ordinary adult law-abiding person is deprived of privacy. I hope this pressure from politicians and corporations from the fiat world will lead to the emergence of a decentralized ecosystem where there will be no one to enforce censorship.

I have seen arguments that it is now very easy for children to access porn and online gambling. What can be done to prevent this? I don't think that it is the duty of these sites to block access to the minors. It is not practical.

These sites cannot block any potential traffic that can go to them. But parents who cannot do that can easily watch tutorials and videos everywhere on how to block websites that they desire to block just like gambling related contents and as well as porn sites.

We don't know what these kids can do if they're holding a smartphone and tries to visit every website that they see. Especially in those websites that has ads banner on its side, we know what sometimes are popping there.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.
It would be far better in terms of gambling to try and practically explain how odds work, how compounding works, what mortgages/interest rates/credit cards/debts are and how making the wrong decision (like borrowing then wasting large sums) can really affect them long term. They need to be taught some of the many tricks that put psychological pressure on them and be taught as independent thinkers, rather than simply following the crowd.
It would be a great idea indeed. I remember when we were studying probabilities at school, but it was all theoretical and extremely boring. There were imaginary dice and balloons, probabilities if picking certain ones of them, cumulative probabilities, etc. But it would have been so useful if we had the real-life approach, and were told in this module about probabilities in gambling. Maybe, it could also be part of subjects like economics or something like that.

However, education doesn’t guarantee anything. Sometimes people forget all they know when they see dollars in their eyes, social and emotional education plays an important role here, as well. I bet there are plenty of math teachers that lose in gambling as well :D

That's for sure but as long as you've explained why you did that and they cannot visit certain websites including the online casinos and other material that they shouldn't be visiting at their age, I think that you've done well already. Now, the next problem comes in as what you've said that they can still gain access through the help of others but as long as you've educated your kids about it. I think that they'll be obedient and they'll avoid those websites including those that are related to gambling.

You all have good points. Monitoring can be done now that children are spending most of their time online and are staying at home. But of course, instead of just restricting them to do so, a good conversation about such matter is really essential.
Communication and talking with your children are very essential. You don't stay at home together without doing conversations. Actually, it's a must to talk with your children all of the time. Even on your busiest days, you've got to allot time for them and teach them what they have to do.
Because if you're not going to do that, they might do those things such as this related to the topic without your consent because they didn't know and you didn't tell.

Providing personal information to casinos and on the Internet in general is not a good idea, even if the data is collected in order to protect you. In practice, very often the personal data collected by some will fall into the hands of others and be used against you. Just recently such a story happened in Afghanistan, when the Taliban came to power began to use the information collected before them for their own purposes - https://theintercept.com/2021/08/17/afghanistan-taliban-military-biometrics/

Right, as parents must be able to give time to their children and with an approach that is often done it will make children obedient. If parents don't talk too often or give more time to their children, then children will be easy to disobey and even when there is a prohibition that parents say at least the children will be more curious about things that are forbidden at their age and they will do it secretly in the future. So I totally agree, giving our children more time to be closer is something that every parent everywhere should do.

Actually, when your kids has a basic knowledge and know how logic works in a certain situation, no matter what topic you said to them, they will secretly do a research about it and find themselves what are the effects of gambling can do to a certain person once he started playing it, and I'm sure kids won't like it so they will never try it in the first place because they know what will happen to them if they do such thing.

That's why opening their eyes at such a young age is important. Let your kid mature at a very young age roy take care of themselves in this world.

That's parenting and very essential to do that. If you've always been with your children and you're having a good bonding with them, you're going to guide them properly.
And at all cost, you'll tell them what they should avoid and explain things that you don't want them to do such as gambling.

Yes any children or underage person can easily access gambling websites and we can't really control that what we can do is to supervise our children or monitor them I think there are some applications where you can limit which websites will your children can access, I think that's pretty useful in regards with streaming sites that shows gambling I think there should be a warning that it's only for 18+ users.
You can restrict that through the admin's control and access to your network or, you can simply block most of the websites you think that your children will visit through their gadgets if they own one. There's a way to block their access through it if you think that you cannot stop them. It's a choice for allowing them and make them exposed on it but if you don't want them to be exposed, you have to do something like this in order to stop them.

In browsers, if the children have their own devices you can block their access to the device but AFAIK if you block a particular website to your ISP you cant even access this too, instead of the recent update of the windows 10 if you are using with the Windows operating system they have family settings or the family control which is more recommended to you. Most of the platform even they ask for their user's age and agreement the Terms some of the kid already knowledgeable and bypass those agreements so they can keep proceeding to the web.

Well, I cannot deny that you have a point here. And that being said, such measures are not enough and has limitations on its efficacy, especially that modern generation are very much tech-savvy and figure out things on their own. We cannot emphasize enough how important parental guidance and essential conversation about the potential impacts of indulging in such activities. It is in the hope that children may make wiser decisions, as they know better, that having conversation with them about this is crucial.

Even without the social media influencers, we already have traditional media and most of the time, culture itself, that tends to show gambling to children at an early age. You don't gamble with money before but when you play your marbles or your trading cards, of course these games gives the children the value of playing and then giving away your stuff to the opposite player if you lose the game. Some cultures also has small spider fights or other insects maybe then they gamble not money but the insects themselves, giving 2 spiders to the winner.

Playing marbles and cards in our child's time can bring us to gambling because sometimes, we use marbles and risk it to be the winner. We do not think that is gambling because we are kids who do not know much about gambling. But after we grow up and get more information, we will consider if by getting something, we need to risk other things, it could be called gambling. that is a small thing that many adult people do not realize about the traditional games that our kids played.

In fact, a huge number of things in the world are gambling and children are faced with this everywhere. And I cannot say that this is bad - if it is part of the real world, then they should be able to interact with the world and understand it. Of course, you should not take your child to the casino or introduce him to gambling as early as possible, but I think it is wrong to unnecessarily protect him from the real world.

That actually makes sense. We all are facing situations where we have to gamble right from our childhood.
The gambles doesn't necessarily have to be with money but anything whether it be toys, food, clothes, games or anything.
I think rather than restricting the children to gambling we can actually educate them towards gambling but with the right intention.
We can educate them towards the Do's and Dont's of gambling and how addiction towards gambling can ruin his life.

We don't see it as gambling because it's almost like playing and doesn't involve money. Just like pokemon cards that we exchange but it's not seen as gambling particularly in sports where competitiveness is encouraged to kids. In sports, the pat on the back or A grade from the teacher is okay as a price.

That's still not going to be counted as gambling. Kids today already have the view of what is right and wrong when it is shown as only grown-ups do it. They know real gambling is when you play cards because even in kid's movies it's there.

Funnily enough bringing Pokemon here up for discussion as a kids game where no money is involved, the last card selling for $370,000 happened in February this year.

That's crazy. Imagine you are a lucky guy of a little kid playing this card game, leaving some of the cards somewhere in the kids room not knowing what's going on with the value of some of them. Lucky dad I guess, you could easily say "good gamble my son/daughter"!

Honestly in the society we live in now Kids are seeing all sorts of stuff maybe they shouldn't have access too.  It isn't just limited to gambling but watch TV and see how much alcohol is glorified.  I mean don't get me wrong, love a good bourbon but it's glorified on TV.  Its the media driven world we live in.
