[What IF] Part 7

[cabalism13]

I was so busy for our upcoming competition for Robotics at school that's why I wasn't able to come up with a crazy idea yesterday, and actually even now I wasn't so sure about a thing so here's a little bit easy for all of you.

What if you have a kid on the house and you're currently making bets online and you accidentally have a phone call or what so ever thing you might do on that time and suddenly the kid mistook it for some fancy game and make bets on his/her own, would you be upset and get angry to the kid? Or would you rather trust a child's play on this scenario?

Due to our late discussion, thread will be open until Saturday.

Depends! If my entire bankroll been blown up because of hitting that max bet then lost.Then for sure i would really get mad but not to that certain extent of being too exaggerated.
I would definitely tell that it isnt really good to touch things up without any permission.Im not really being too strict but into those kind of scenarios, its always been good to ask permission.
If he done things already and messed up then just forgive and tell him/her that he wont do it next time.

of course, I would be upset or angry that would be the first reaction people would have in that scenario but in the end, most of us would realize that it is our own fault for
leaving it in the presence of a child. if the bet is irreversible then there's nothing you can do but trust and hope for it to win. but if the bet is reversible( it's not that I don't
trust my child) I would cancel the bet and bet with the choice that I want.

No, I wouldn't be angry at him because it's not his fault. I blame myself for leaving my computer unattended and unlocked with unsafe content inside. I will probably have to explain (or make up an excuse) about what that "game" he was playing and giving advice about not using someone else's property without permission.

This is unlikely for me though because even now I almost never leave my laptop unlocked while I was away. There are a lot of private data in my laptop (same for phone) that I feel insecure leaving it unlocked or unattended.

Either way if I bet on something still the chances are half percent. Though the kid is accidentally did and not by self purpose. First thing first is that I am responsible for what did happened; living my device hanging, and vulnerable to possible other unauthorized access. Hence, I won't be blaming the kid from what did happened and let the situation pass around. Who knows that it might be my lucky bet.

[Eternad]

Will depend on how much the bet will be, and depends on the result. Since I will not be able to stop or reverse the bet then let it be. One way or another it's a kid we will get angry then later we will be fine and approach them. It's like what I experience this week I left my phone in a bit then I got a phone call and video calls created by me. Funny but that's it will just tell to those that dialed that its because of the kid. So what ever the result in gambling be, it's because of the kid. Hope it's a good and rewarding bet though.

I will not trust on child play. Also you have mentioned "Bets" and not the gambling games like "Dice" etc. I can trust the kids on dice games which are purely luck based, but i will surely not want the child to make a bet on any match.

By the way, its only take a CTRL + L to lock the computer before taking a phone call. 

[panganib999]

Not gonna lie, is there any difference? I actually think it's the same either way. It's gambling, it's based on luck. Heck, kids are much more prone to getting into luckier events, so why not? I don't particularly deposit large amounts so I'd suppose it's not that dangerous for me to let a child play it. If by some off chance I manage to get the jackpot, ain't that worth it? And even if I didn't, well, nothing new there right?

[shoreno]

depends on the person i think  . me im a kind of person that has a limited tempter  and that simply means that i can get irritated or get angry on smaller mistakes that i made so how much more if its a serious mistake like the one that describe on your topic  ? i think im gonna pinch the kid but not that really hard  . this actually happen to me one time but i was using a laptop that time were my cousin ( 8 yr old ) plays with my lappy , good thing that it didnt click the max bet button  .

[White Christmas]

Actually I will not be angry or upset just because a children accidentally place bet on the said scenario. I think if it happens to me then I would probably just laugh and trust the beginners luck of the kid. Maybe the bet that the kid does makes you win, who knows? If you lose because the kid does then probably it is just a matter of luck and bad timing, right? I will just watch it and probably have a bonding to my kid so that it will be less stressful than thinking if the bet will lose or win. Just remember that in betting games, sometimes luck may occur and bad times may occurred it is a matter of good and bad times.

[TGD]

The OP didn't mention what is the size of themoney involve for bet. Yet If I'm in that situation, I will not yell my kid since that is my fault for leaving it before doing the other things that come up while I'm betting. I will never blame a child for losing my money for that reason. That's my what IF.

Interesting theory. There are a couple of things that came into the mind because it will differ in scenarios. Imagine Dr. Strange playing those 14 million+ scenarios and winning only once. (Just the theoretical, multiverse person in me)

Anyways, the things I would consider are:

• The age of the kid
• Gender
• Computer Proficient
• Gamer

These are some of the things I would consider. So if I have a boy who is computer proficient and knows his way around the computer and understands the game quickly then he started playing unexpectedly on the site. My reaction would vary depending on the outcome. If it's a win, it's a win, and I would be happy. If not, I would scold him and tell him that it's not right to mess with somebody else business. (Time to learn a lesson)

If it's a girl, I doubt I would be angry. I will have a soft spot for her, knowing that I need to take care of her regularly. Maybe it would differ on other aspect, but the one thing that I'm sure of is when I gamble, I only deposit the amount I'm willing to lose, not my savings account. This should be a standard rule.

Or would you rather trust a child's play on this scenario?

I guess if my kid would still say that "Please let me play," I would trust him then. Being confident about the amount shouldn't be a worry to me anymore. I know that I would take care of them and let them understand things so they could learn the consequences of gambling. In the end, I wouldn't be angry directly, and I hope that they would understand gambling as it is.

[Latviand]

I'd rather not. Its very dangerous to let a kid stay alone with cash situations after all, even if I am gambling for enjoyment. Though if it was done, well what's done is done. No use in getting angry over it. They are kids after all. BUT, if my entire deposit was actually destroyed because of what was done, well, its time to get angry all right. Though it was partly my fault for leaving it, well, the blame is shared on both of us. But since I'm an adult, I know what happened, but the kid didn't so I got to tell him/her what happened and what are the consequences.

[Lanatsa]

Not gonna lie, is there any difference? I actually think it's the same either way. It's gambling, it's based on luck. Heck, kids are much more prone to getting into luckier events, so why not?

And even if I didn't, well, nothing new there right?

So you mean about that beginners luck? Its true that it wont matter if a game is being played by a child or an adult but there were no proofs that kids are more prone to luckier events.The thing youve mentioned which i do agree on is that it wont really that matter because you do know that your account does only have the amounts which is less or you can afford to lose.Its not really that right to scold your child because of your gambling habit and just understand that they are just kids and touching off things are part of that so its just understandable.If it do hit some jackpot of its random bet then for sure you would really have that big smile on your face.

[YuginKadoya]

99% of most parents would be upset no doubt about it! from seeing their kid taking a bet a parent would go bonkers about it and what more the kid doesn't even have any idea on how they can make a bet especially if they would bet an all in and not taking a limit in lessening the amount to gamble that will be a total parent anger mode,

Just like what happens when I am browsing the forum and I would make a post and have established all possible reply for a topic and would just gonna hit the post button I suddenly remember I would just gonna get something on the kitchen and would come back to make a push on the post button, When returned my kid just make a quick erase of all things that I have put as a reply to the topic and clicking the home button, I can not undo the process that he did, that felt me with outraged and feel upset so I scolded him of what he did,

I think this is a typical reaction to what may parents feel.

Why get angry it's just a kid and kids are like that, they are so curious on so many things, I will just let it, but explain to him that he should not do that again, I know that gambling is addictive and he is not yet ready for this kind of thing, I will just tell him to stay away for now, because he is still a kid.

For real? you've included to trust your kind on something that is complicated to even us adults? what kind of parent is going to make that choice, come on. I wouldn't be angry, it is my responsibility as a parent to teach my kid not to touch other's things without their permission, also, why would I, as a parent leave something sensitive to be unattended, right? It is all about good parenting and not to rely on your kid the luck you have in gambling, that's a very shameful thing a parent could do.

Let me be honest here, most people will be very "proud" and happy if their kid some how being extremely lucky manages to win the bets placed. They would even start thinking that their kid is a lucky charm and might even allow the kid to make some clicks in the future. But, if the kid loses the bets, they will be very disappointed and might even yell at the kid.
I wouldn't yell at my kid but will make my kid understand that he should not touch my things without my permission. I don't want my kids to be scared of me.

[AakZaki]

maybe if it happened to me, I would let it go and not scold my child. I will allow it for the first time. and at other times it may not happen again because the child must not be taught such things so as not to be addicted. and maybe if he can earn his own money then it's okay to play gambling.

First, the kid is not at fault here. It is my negligence that leads to this situation. The kid is just being a kid. All kids are curious and will try to play anything that he sees, your computer, cellphone, and your bankroll if you leave them lying around. If I need to be angry with somebody, I should be angry at myself.

Second, the damage has already been done. There is no way I can reverse the situation. So, I will just let it play out and let the luck of my child give me my fortune.
