Effects of gambling on teenagers and the mental status

Are you made out of money? Where did you keep getting money at the age of 13? Anyways, coming from someone who have helped a nephew battled gambling addiction before I knew where it went completely wrong. He started stealing, because there is no way he could get money, so instead of giving up on gambling he choose to start stealing from home and it got worse when his father's account was almost drained.

All hell Brooke lose and he was taken to correctional centre, it worked for few months and later he continued again, it was his friends, they were all into gambling, I had to take some steps and we got rid of the friends by replacing his school, you have no idea how kids influence one another. If you brilliant child turned to someone who have lost focus on education, some bad friends are all around him, replace them and make sure they never see each other again, this was how we saved him, now when he is been told to do something he listens unlike the past, I had to explain to him why father hated gambling. This involved exposing some family secrets to scared him and it worked.

How can a 13 years old teenager who gamble get addicted to drugs? I dont think that 13 years old teenager is even able to gamble regularly, because he does not have endless money flow. The money he has wont be enough to become addicted. Addicted to drugs at the age of 13? Either that teenager lives in area where drugs are common (and his only way to change something is to move, what is almost impossible at such age) and its likely that his life will be connected with criminal, or who would sell him drugs at such age?

Teenage gambling is dangerous because it shapes their mindset toward quick money, exposes them to addiction, disrupts their focus and development, and shows why parents and communities must guide them early to prevent long-term harm. In all honestly how come a 13years old already doing a gambling? He shouldnt be exposed so Parents should be watching their kids.

The habit of living with discipline is important for a family because the primary teacher of children is their parents. If young children are addicted to gambling it is very difficult to stop them from that addictive stage.

The influence of parents reckless life later on in children and children who feel lonely tend to engage in negative activities in society. Social degradation starts from the family, so you should strictly care for your child until they reach adulthood. In order to guide children in the right way you should be aware of the friends they are associating with and advise them to avoid bad friends because most children get addicted to gambling under the influence of bad friends.
