Do any people gamble under the age of 18?

[mimini0147]

There are many below 18 underaged teengaers who use to gamble nowadays in my country i think 4 out of 10 who gambles and know how to play some card games. This will be a big problem in the society because many more teenagers are going to gamble and get addicted on it. It is hard to counter this technolgy is keep on improving kids are more handful nowadays in technology .

Definitely.

Like gambling is basically reachable anywhere. Anyone can gamble, especially when you've got bitcoin.

If you have bitcoin, even if you are 8 years old, you can gamble at PD, JD etc. etc.

Of course, they say it's 18 year old up but they don't ever verify anything.

Yes ,those sites will not waste their time verifying you ,Anyone knows bitcoin user doesnt reveal any identity who use it or before entering gambling sites. Thats why bitcoins can be a problem to the children of society in the long term we cant track anymore what childrens do along the web .They are more curiosity about the things without thinking what may be the result after they do it.

Been quite alot of scandal on iphone or similar apps that try to encourage under age gambling with in game items used to power yourself up.   You then try to defeat the game using your newly funded extra powers, obviously the game should be based on skill not how much money you can spend so its heavily exploitative.  I'd say that relates to gambling, also in UK you can gamble at 16 or older and Im not sure other jurisdictions but as gambling tax is used by government to raise money its probably the case that they allow it.  Scratch cards and raffle tickets are also gambling a few other schemes I can think of.
So yep, plenty OP

at first they are just playing cards without have to stake anything
but as time goes by they start to think wild
give a try but then addicted to stake money in the game
and then online casino come make them easier to gamble without have a tight restriction , no wonder.

Yes, there are people who are gambling below the legal age. Gambling sites sometimes has no efficient way to screen minors.They can always falsify data when joining. Person above is also the living testimony of it and I know some minors who can accessed and play some gambling sites.

[ilovefeetsmell]

I want to know if anyone here gambles or have gambled under the age of 18, I feel like there are many kids who do this and I am interested to see how many people actually gamble under 18, if you have any friends that gamble or have gambled under 18 include them.

I think anyone can do a gambling. In our life today was so easy to learn.

EDIT: I mean mostly kids online, its hard to be a kid and gamble physically. I feel like the gambling rate for kids is increasing a lot and is gonna be a problem in the future, especially with the CS:GO situation.[/center]

It will be a major problem for our community, Parents must guide and well disciplined their kids. Teach them what is right and what is wrong.

EDIT2: Another question to ask, is what is your opinion on the topic of kids gambling, do you think it is a growing problem or a problem alone for that matter?

It is a growing problem that we must prevent to be a big problem. It will hard to us to solve this problem once it became worst.

EDIT3: What is the best way to counter this problem without websites having to know your exact identity?

I don't know what was your meaning in this. By the way, the start is in the parents. If they know how to raise their kids, they will grow a good person. They will avoided the bad doings like this.

It depends in my country there are some machines that you can find almost anywhere where a small roulette with images of fruits spins and if you hit it right then you get a prize, in my opinion those are gambling machines and are very popular in my country especially amongst kids.

Actual gambling like that,that uses tokens and when won can exchange in toys were really play by kids,but young ones that can use computer will also into online gambling that will soon  get real money,it cant avoid to happen since children were hard to monitor now especially when they engaging in gadgets.

As time has passed kids have become harder and harder to monitor, most of the time younger generations are more tech savvy than their parents, can you imagine that a kid can easily encrypt their communications with military grade encryption protocols, what can a dad or mom do at that point? Not much.

It's not odd that we will see kids with today's generation gambling while at the early stage of their youth. I did myself experience it to gamble when I was young and it is because of the influence of the people that are surrounding you. It's either they want to try it out or else they are lack of their parent's guidance.

The act of gambling isn't rare for People under 18, especially those in High School. I remember gambling when I was in high school by playing card games or betting on sports. I've read somewhere online that between 60 and 80 percent of high school students in the U.S engage in gambling at least once during their time in High School.

I think it's different nowadays, when I was in high school I never had any idea that online gambling has exist, I just learned online gambling when I graduated college, and also that was the time that I almost ruin my life. I was thinking, what if I knew gambling when I was still in high school, would I will be able to finish my studies?, I think I will be addicted when I Knew it that time, I am weak in controlling my emotion but thank God I knew it when I am already matured and now I'm enjoying it.

Its not really just about online gambling. Back in the days its not even conventional gambling. When i was a minor, we use to make monetary bets on pretty much everything like coin toss or color games. Its not until i aged a little bit that i became awarenof what gambling really is

I usually see some children under 18 play slots in our country, gambling is legal in my residence country, but they can't play under 18, it is illegal, but supermarket staffs seldom supervise this.

In an online world tracking what your kids are doing has become harder and harder. You can install blocks and stuff but your kid has many devices that can access the internet with. Also of they k ow what they doing they can go around it or even disable it. In today's world it's even more important to know what your kid is doing when he looks down into the glow of a screen. They could be watching porn, gambling. Looking at gore or other sick stuff. There even chatrooms and forums with word stuff kinds shouldn't be involved in. It's all up to the parents and teachers of the kids.

Yeah. You can't track them all the time. What you can do is just guide them and explain to them the impact of their online activity. Don't just click any thing they found in the web. Not only viruses, but you don't know what the content of that link. It may be porn or some unpleasant video.

Gambling is attractive and therefore more teenagers are attracted towards it. And with the use of bitcoin it is possible for even kids to play gambling online as no age restriction is required with bitcoins, as it is with credit cards.

The provisions of the regulation of the minimum age limit for gambling, it's just a formality. A lot of fiat gambling sites that do not require age limit verification and with the existence of the current bitcoin. I'm pretty sure many children under the age of 18 are playing gambling with bitcoin. In fact that provision applies only in countries that allow gambling.

Yes, my point goes to same. It's how possible to make limitation teenagers towards to gambling attraction. Today's most of gambling platform familiar with bitcoin, they can easily make gambling activity through bitcoin and you can't monitoring it which participant is 18+/-.
