Police Raids and kids involving spider betting.

[AicecreaME]

How about this, would you consider gambling if the items involved are not money or crypto, but material things. Like this spider fights for example, the spiders themselves would be the prize and the others will bet with their collection of spiders too. Sometimes it might be baseball or trading cards instead of money. In my opinion it is also a form of gambling, but it is a bit discreet. Whether it is money or trading cards or spiders, it is gambling. What about you, do you think it's gambling?

Yes, it's still gambling even without any money involve as long as it has a bet. The only difference is that betting material things such as what you've mentioned is not addicting at all and can be replenish anytime. For example, if they will bet each others spider and the winner will take its opponent spider as a price, then the loser could easily hunt another spider again. Unlike betting with money, since kids are involved, they might end up pickpocketing their parents wallet secretly just to have something to bet, which is not good.

I am afraid that the kids will enjoy playing that game because they will not think it is part of gambling.

They won't get addicted if they have good guidance from their parents.
Parents should teach their kids on proper management of money.
But I don't always agree that if they play more & more on games like TopT3ns said, they will get addicted.
Mentioning my experience, my chiildhood was almost full of child gambling games, but I did not become addicted into it even on time that I'm winning too much.
I also experienced betting for our childplays, on on my gradeschool and Highschool days, I already betting and fighting others on games like DOTA( Dota 1 for gradeschool, Dota 2, on highschool to college).

So for me, the key is discipline
It's fine using money for gambling, but know your limitations.

I also experienced in my childhood, but I don't play gambling more often like my friends because my parents always prohibit me and say that I must avoid gambling. But at that time, I was a kid, and when we are together, sometimes we play some games with small money

Knowing your limitations is the key to prevent losing money, but many times we lose control of ourselves and in the end, we really lose that money. It is difficult, but that is what we need to do.

That is absolutely correct, as a parent you cannot stay 24/7 with your child but you still can explain to the the reality of gambling. You can also keep an eye on his funding by occasionally checking their wardrobe and room.

The most important thing that parents should give their children is to lay down a system of values of what is good and what is bad. And they should show this first of all by their example. I try to check my children's personal belongings less, they are already old enough. This shows that I trust them.
In any case, in our country, there are no fights of spiders, roosters, and other things.

If this one is considered harsh due to animal involvement then horse racing should be banned too?
or any other that do involved any species of animal.When it comes to kids that do involve on these betting activity then good parenting or guidance would be the main solution on this one.

But there is a big difference here, in horse racing the horses are not forced to fight each other or anything resembling that, they just run, which is something the horses will do naturally so the activity itself is not endangering the animal anymore than what it will happen in nature, however in the case of forcing an animal to fight things are different, many of those animals will carry injuries from the fight or will even die, and while some may argue this also happen in nature the big difference is that in this case they are been forced to for the entertainment of some gamblers which is simply not right.

Not that I'm going to justify Kids Gambling.

They are the kind of spiders that kill each other in the jungle and there are billions to gazillions of them everywhere in the country, one spider can spawn more than thousands of their kind every time.  Its just the grownups that put them on the makeshift arena and bet them to fight but when we were kids, we just let them fight to death.
