I went to store to buy a toy for my kid and I was surprised to see this "toy"  What surprised me was that "+8" sign. While gambling is not allowed for persons under 18, toys like this are pretty much allowed. In my honest opinion that sign should be "+18" and no one should be allowed to sell this to kids. I mean, seriously? Would you buy this for your kid? That would open up a child's curiousity to gambling which is not a good thing. At first probably they'll be betting with small amounts of toys but of course once they get used to it, they'll be looking fornthe real thing. You wouldn't want your kid to be hooked at an early age. |

I also think that is a quite a strange toy for a kid. I don't even see how they can enjoy playing it, because there is no objective or strategy to play those games. They will probably be bored if they play it, since they are not betting anything, and all they see is random numbers. I don't see any problem or a kid to play poker though. If they don't play it with real money, is just another card game, and quite interesting.
I think kids should not be allowed to play with this kind of toys. Yeah, it is a toy but it will give them idea about gambling which is very appropriate for this age. There are many toys to choose from which will much better than this. Toys that could help them learn things like the alphabet, building blocks. As parents, it is very important to watch and monitor the growth of their kids as well as to nurture their gifts by choosing the right food for them to eat as well as the right toys for them to play with. Honestly, a good parent will never let their kids learn gambling at a young age. Actually I would say that it is complicated reply. If there parents are greedy then they will teach to their children about gambling if there parents are from good family than they will never teach to their kids about gambling trust me I have seen a lot of parent who has play with each other a gambling in Cricket, Football and poker rooms and so on. |

Of course it is terrible gift for anyone and i'm also surprised that seller would try to sell it. I am sure that gambling for kids is illegal in most, if not all, countries.
I could understand if this "toy" had +18 sign or at least +16 but +8 is just dumb. I hope it's just a simple mistake,that they forgot 1 in front of 8.

I think putting some amount on sports games is not synonymous with the game of roulette. Such public gambling at that age even we also did some sort of gambling when we are children. But then I don't know what these other roulette games and slot games gambling. It won't make them for gambling addicts. But the slot game is very dangerous very quickly kids get addicted to this game so we recommend should be accompanied by parents when children play anaka  |

I see no problem on this game as gift for a kid. I would buy for my children a gift like this without problems and we would play together betting small amounts of money, cents, just for fun. When I was kid I remember I earned a lottery game and I didn't become addicted on lottery games. I used it to have fun with the family, betting cents and earning a small comission over everyone's money, my house edge.

Is there play money included? If so, I agree with you. This is not appropriate for kids especially not at ago of 8+. You should check if it is against the rules in your country. Sometime games from abroad are imported without an appropriate check from authorities. I am from a European country and this happens here too from time to time.

No ways !! You may as well but your kids a fake drug addict play set with fake syringes and stuff.
Promoting things like this to children is just wrong and i can't understand how it was bought by the shop to sell. What were they thinking ? Where did you find this ? Was it a to shop ? If so then wow....

This would be bad parenting on my part. I rather prefer books, board games, and educational toys. Buying this is like encouraging them to develop a gambling behavior or character, but if my kids ask, I’d answer them honestly and candidly. I will explain to them the repercussions this will bring to them and how should they would always be careful and wary of gambling.

Its definitely on a shop since we can buy these kind of toys on a shop and you cant find it anywhere for free.Its really a wrong thing to promote this stuffs to your child because you are molding them to be an early gambler.Even as of now i didnt even told my child about money itself because i dont like for him to get involved into these kind of things thats why i do really avoid them as much as i can and as a parent i do know on whats good for them. |

Very strange toys to me, It's a toy whose circulation should stop. It looks like an ordinary toy, but what is the meaning of the toy? Teach kids to gamble? Are you sure that is a good thing? Is not it better if we teach something other than gambling?

Very rightly said instead of gambling and we should be making them learn new skills which will help them in their future life to tackle any situation. gambling even without teaching once they grow they can easily learn it but skills if developed at young age will help them to go further in one's life. |

This toys are not for kids, I saw them and every time I said my clear opinion about this to parents that approve this kind of toys for their kids. I'm a gambler, but I'm adult person and people shouldn't start to gamble in teenage years. First build yourself a character, then start to gamble is my opinion, and I see that most of people in this thread thinks same like me and I'm glad for that. Some things and life pleasures are not for young kids, and this kind of games are sending wrong message to the kids, gambling can be fun but also can be dangerous if person is naive and with weak personality. But can we do something to stop selling of this gambling games for kids?

I would not allowed my little cousins play with that kind of game because if I will allowed it, at the young age they will knew how to gambling even though that is only a toy but kids nowadays are smart, what they see to older people they will do it also even if they not understand that thing. |

I really don't see a problem here. Kids gamble all the time with their games, and even make bets with each other all the time, so it's exactly the same. Also, kids can play monopoly and strip other users from all their houses and money and the goal is to put others to bankruptcy, so how can that be better than that game?
I don't see a problem here neither , as you said kids can be gambling without their parents knowledge over many things , even who will beat who at the cafeteria fight or which basketball player will score more in NBA .. Other games are more devilish that will make them hate each other ! Monopoly itself ruined so many friendships  If i know my kid will gamble sooner or later in life , why not teach him and make sure he won't get ruined and go bankrupt in the future ? why not make him good at that game so he can get some money later in life from it ? Why not store morals in him from his young age about this "taboo" subject and make sure he won't go "YOLO" with this thing ? I think betting on those street fights and putting some amount on sports games is not equal to this roulette game. That kind of gambling is common in that age even we also did that kind of gambling when we are kids. But that time I don't know what this roulette game and other slot games in gambling. That will not make them to addict to gambling. But the slots games are very dangerous the kids very quickly addicted to these games. hahaha, the one thing we have to do is give kids a lesson on the best for them. And if we can't get out of the gambling Centre, at least never do gambling in front of them or talk about it, because it will inevitably give rise to something that might not be profitable for them in the future. now that we all have to understand that gambling is very bad. So we should try not to poison future generations with something harmful things I understand your concerns and everybody agrees that gambling is bad and we shouldn't allow our children to engage such misconducts , yet when they grow up gambling will be an inevitable stage in their lives , and we may not be present to correct their path , even if we are , they may not be willing to hear our pieces of advice thinking that they got everything under control and understanding everything about life ! Maybe introducing them to the "thing" ourselves from childhood and implant the correct thinking in them is the better choice . Gambling is a choice, whether or not a person is been introduced to gambling, it is still his/her choice to engage in gambling on a frequent basis. Well you are right that gambling is inevitable among everybody, but they should know first how to value their money. It may seem tempting at first especially if you are always winning but the problem rises on people who still gamble despite on losing streak. This creates an endless cycle of them going-in and out of the casino which may be harmful in the long run. In line with the picture, I will never buy that to my kid but I will try my best to explain what gambling is. I am not promoting gambling but it is better for me to explain it to him than learning it from his friends. |

Hmm even though i don't have kids yet I'm not going to buy these kind of toy to my kid. I'm going to focus on his/her development and also going to teach him/her how to play guitar. that's how the right to raise a kid. don't push your kid to be a gambler even if it's a toy because you don't know what will make your kid to push onto gambling when on teenager stage.

The government should do inspection and ban or even closed the store who sell these toy. That's obviously gambling, the name itself already include it, and more terrible, the rating is +8. I will go to the store to return the toy and ask for refund.
I think it's better to report the store who sell these toy to the police or people who have authority.

maybe its our turned to keep our kids away from this type of toys as we knew that there's some parents who will just treat this as a simple toys mostly from the countries which gambling is really active and being supported some parents will allow their kids to use this and to learn the game in their early age. |

Bitcoin is highly fun filled and for kids this seems entirely new. Toys for kids are available in several forms and at the childhood we need parents need to be more cautious about the toys. This ruins the human activity when the kid grows big through the early days impact using those toys. |

In this era of technology, where kids know more technology than their parents, it is difficult to keep an eye on children for 24 hours. However, if we work on their character, moral values and ethics, that will help them staying away from all the harmful and evil things. Moreover, try to raise them with confidence and be polite. Not just kids, even adults also need supervision so that they will not get addicted nor will not spend big money with gambling. |
