Gambling addiction becomes more popular with young people over time

[Noilee]

I think the reason that they can earn easy money in gambling, if they win in the first time they attract and encourage to gamble again, so they become addicted. Especially today, we live now in a high technology that gambling is everywhere and of its being legalized so many young people have no limits to gamble.

True that young people are mostly addictive to it since most of the time they are desperate and want to be rich within short time but despite this most of the old people too are addictive in gambling.

The mindset of "get quick rich" which is now rampant among young peoples has actually given then the spirit of quick addiction to games becasue of the urge to make quick money. They will go to any length to ensure they get rich undermining the consequences attach, like addiction which is a way to depression. Most of these young people's after loosing they get depress, which is not a good life, so, "gamble responsibly".

Well said, the focus on the easy money keeps the users driven forward to continue gambling even when they loss in gambling. Whenever an user gets into gambling, there will be wins on consecutive games. This keeps the user continue to gamble, and at some point they themselves gain confidence to gamble further and win. This is where some users mistake and get caught into addiction and some really understand the scenario and set the limits.

When money is involve, the young people will always go there for a share, either good or bad result from it. "The young are the most vulnerable" when money is tactically involve. Gambling for money can easily lead to gambling addiction, if the gambler focus more on the money than the fun for the play. Am always be careful to get involve, becasue am still very young for addiction.

They want to explore new things, and sometime it doesn't even matter whether it can be bad or good for them. They just keep on trying new things, one cause of these are child that lacks attention in the family. They seek love, and get it from their friends who influenced them from being what they are. So parents should carefully watch over their children. Recent surveys shows that gambling companies and establishments are being installed on populated areas with poor economy, one is ours. With high dense places including kids, it is easy for them to engage in gambling like these.

Easy come, easy go and YOLO is most of the favorite words of the young ones these days. And yes, that can also be added that they are seeking for easy money so that they can enjoy what they are up to with their lives.

They aren't good in controlling in emotions so the more time they spend in gambling, the more they are likely to become addicted to it. Online gambling is mostly a free way to gamble and everyone can almost gamble as long as he has balance to deposit.

I don't agree with the research that gambling effects young mind and people only, as in my experience it's the aged seniors who're often playing and are addicted more to gambling. While it's true gambling does creates excitement in the mind of young gamblers, but they're able to get out of it. However when you look at seniors these're people who're constantly addicted and are often seen playing huge bets be it land based casinos or online ones.

Also you do not get merits for posting links, improve your language skills, participate more in discussions if people like your post naturally then they'll give you merits.

I totally agree, as what i’ve observe young people do gamble but it is more like for fun and it did not come to a point of addiction unlike aged people. And I observed as well that  those aged people have higher chances of losing huge amount of money since they put huge bets. If a person us already addicted so much to gambling, it is vert hard for them to get out of this, that article may have included ways to stop it but it’s easy to say than done.

And the problem here is I want to ask why that happens? All the information is complete but people still can not solve the gambling addiction problem, the analysis is useless or our greed still dominates all.

I think the only way to solve this dilemma is with the help of oneself too. He is the only one who can convince himself to stop. There may be lots of rehabilitation centers, professionals who can address what one is going through, or even government policies that may help regulate one's addiction, but all of these will be meaningless if one doesn't help himself.

Young people is more engaged into gambling because there are many ways of doing it nowadays. It's like, everything can be reached in just one click. But no matter what age you are, addiction is addiction and it must be dealt with. By whom? By ourselves primarily. We should allow ourselves to control our desires and let those who can help, help. It may not be easy to quit something that has already been a part of one's system but one must not let him be brought down by such and break off that chains of gambling addiction.

LOL you have ever seen older people who have been established in life gamble with their money? Most of them dont unless they are suffering from pathological gambling which is a disease. Old people care for their close ones and for their future so they prefer to keep money safe and sound then waste it. Younger people try their risks and easily get broken trying to do so.

It is hard but it is not impossible. For someone who is willing to stop gambling some support from friends and family would help definitely help. But most of them are lost causes I would agree.
