Gambling Exposed to children

[Cling18]

We couldn't stop gambling exposure because it's all over the internet. As parents, we should take responsibility for disciplining our kids and enlightening them about the risks of gambling. We should teach them what to avoid and the things that might happen if they do gambling illegally. It's our prerogative to tell them what gambling is and not to rely on the influencers in every Social media platform.

Children gambling should no way be encouraged because it exposes them to illicit acts, they would try to get money by every means including stealing it to play gambling. I guess there should be restrictions from the online betting companies against children so that if they are underaged they will be denied access. The parents too will have a major role to play to discourage their children against early gambling. Early gambling is the fastest way to become an addict and other hard life.

What if children imitate what their parents do, and that's usually not just from the spectacle that is used as a guide. Sometimes family, environmental or school factors have their respective roles in fostering a child's desire to be curious about what he sees every day. It is difficult to prevent the factors that motivate him from third parties. Even far from that, parents as much as possible provide an example that should be taught to children after he comes home from school.

I think sometimes experience is good so that they will find out for their selves that there's no good on gambling...

Nope experience is not good at the wrong age but right age. If you expose a lady that does not understand good and bad to vices, it will likely destroy the youngestar because they will be carried away with the wrong things and may not get hold back on themselves and it will be too late to turn back. This is why you have some deviant behavior in the society.

So the young ones need to be guided and protected until they are able to think and take their own decisions.

These days I'm seeing many Youtubers and Twitch streamers are promoting Gambling websites [Dice, Sports Betting] and Poker Apps.

I know it's ok to gamble for having fun and socially but I don't think young people should be exposed to this when they're in school.
Most of them will only imagine "What 'IF' i win 1000x of this amount and i'll be able to do this and that"

The first thing where will they get the money, even if they get pocket money and use that to gamble then they'll slowly develop the habit of gambling disregarding short-term winnings - if they occur.

They'll pay a huge price with the tension they'll have thinking about this when their whole life is ahead.

It's a grave sin for parents if they let their children expose at a very young age, once they found out that the gaming site their kids are playing have integrated games that are similar to gambling they should stop their kids and look for alternative sites, there are still a lot of gaming sites that are dedicated to the kid and safe for children.

There must be a high probability of addiction in adolescence! No matter where they get the money to spend it on gambling... In the future these children will face big psychological problems which can only be solved with the help of a specialist! That's why it's better to limit children from such gambling sites!

Cases like this are very difficult to prevent. Because where I live this has happened and it certainly makes a lot of talks. I don't think it's the right thing to blame those who are shaking. Return to family control and watch what the child is doing. Maybe they were just watching and nothing more.
Well, that was the beginning, we were just watching, getting advertisements and simple displays that flashed on our cellphones, then we finally got into the world of gambling.

In as much as mobile phone is common in our society today,there is every tendency that children will want to try what they see online.Some of them are seeing their elder ones gambling on line,and when on their own will still try to play games online to win money because they've seen their brothers play. We are in a digital society so children can be expose to whatever that is online.

Gambling companies should know better that using young people could negatively after the kids morality and aren't they worried that the some one could so them for this type of marketing using minors.

Obviously the bad habits that come from gambling.

I think phone makers should have a kids mode to prevent them from accessing such kid of content.

It's true that is not good for children exposed to gambling at an early stage. They can't even find the money of their own, its going to be worse if they become addicted.

The big question is where they will get the money to play the gambling ? You cannot play gambling without money and in some cases, you cannot even make an account if you are a miner. So in case any child is playing gambling, then it is the fault of his/her parents who have allowed them to do so.

I think money is not an issue as there are some children who have their own moneys from their parent's credit card or their personal savings.

I would not entirely blame their family either since curiosity goes a long way to a determined individual. Regardless, I do agree that there must be some sort of intervention done by the parents. Their primarily responsibility is the well-being of their children, that is why preventing the children from falling to this rabbit hole is a big task that must be shouldered by the parents.

Youtube is accessible all over the world so those promotions that they are doing can be watched by young people. Well there is no news on this because even though there is now youtube we are already exposed to gambling since we're young, To be honest, at a young age, I already learned card games and I play on it with my friend's small pot money only.

Most people have already had some experience with gambling when they were young but those who made lots of friends while playing still gambling right now. That's what I witnessed at our place where my batch still playing with their childhood friend the same way they played cards back then but now with stakes on the table. I think that is the reason why most kids right now are involved in this activity even though their parent doesn't allow them to do so. When they see all the basic tutorials on Youtube, most of them will try them and ended up playing every day.

Youtube's revenue and some Streamers' revenue comes from such ads, it's not possible to ask for a complete ban when it's against their interests, besides, I find these videos almost always have stickers asking viewers to be over eighteen, they also have basic warnings and couldn't complain more about their work. Sometimes I see many parents who are lacking time with their children, just handing the phone and not continuing or communicating with the kids daily, children's curiosity sometimes causes disaster

By the way, even if the game does not directly contain gambling, children can still face money issues in it. I think those who have children know that in many absolutely children's games there are many things that are sold for real money on various marketplaces and on social networks. And because of this, for many players, the game turns into a competition for the extraction of such things.

OP, even these streamers will not show up, there are other ways for young people to be exposed to gambling.

Did you consider knowing the environment they are moving to? Do you think that people around them won't share some views about gambling? Do you think gambling can just be made online? There are endless ways for these children to be exposed to gambling even they don't want to or how protective we are.

It doesn't mean that once they are exposed in these gambling videos by the streamers or on thru other ways, they will be a gambler right away. It's not of course. They have other activities that they are more focused on at that age and gambling is just another information inserted into their mind as part of growing up.

There should be and as a parent then its our responsibility on raising up our kids on the right path and wont really be that too irresponsible on not doing our part as a guardian.

We should guide them on best possible path as they grow up even though there are circumstances which we cant avoid because we cant check them from time to time.

It might be hard but at least we should really do our best to give them at least the idea on why gambling isnt really not good for young minds.

This is one of the factors that a parents should be mindful because a child would think that whatever he/she sees that his/her parents doing was right if what the parents doing is contrary to their actions. Nowadays, children can get idea about gambling activities with the help of social media and internet and sometimes it is made to be free accessed in terms of tutorial or some sites are easily accessed without restrictions so the parental guidance is really needed to make a child aware especially in terms of gambling.

The rate at which adolescent are venturing into gambling this days is alarming with high frequency that the government and parental guidance need to look into to educate little ones on how to limit gambling in children cause I know we can't stop it. It's the trend of the day... gambling.  Our little ones really are inquisitive ready to know what gives daddy money and how they can help themselves on how to be independent on daddy's money, they're want to make money to get their own financial liberty.

Daddy goes to come and come back to notice that the children do not depends on his money again. This is the new era children/adolescent are into, making their own money through gambling or other online activities.

I'm not a fan of Youtube's verify your age system, in fact I find it damn outright ridiculous. However, they have it, so why not use it? If a Youtuber is advertising something that involves gambling either directly in their video via a sponsorship or down below in their description or comments, then the video should be age restricted. That would at least inject some consistency into Youtube's moderation policy. This way, parents would have to manually agree that they don't mind that their children will be exposed to this sort of content, and advertisements.

[traderethereum]

If that is about the video on Youtube and Twitch, many people can watch those videos, including the young generation, to get into gambling and play games.
It needs more attention from adult people to watch out for their kids or use Safe Guards in their kid's mobile phones to not see the videos or advertisements about gambling and porn or other explicit materials.
Once the kids watch a gambling game on Youtube, their curiosity will come and sooner or later, they will visit that site and playing the gambling games.
It really needs serious attention from the parents to explain to their kids that they need to be careful when watching videos or advertisements on Youtube or other social media.

Especially this system infuriates when I use YouTube without verification, for example, at work or on someone else's computer. To watch the video, I have to risk my account (enter the password on someone else's device). Given the fact that this password is suitable for all Google services and the risk is too great, I had to create another account for such cases.

In this way people need to be aware of the exposure specially parents in which must limit their children in using social media specially those account they are following because more than anyone it is the parent who must be concern about their kids and not the government or who other.
our house our rules , and our rules must be followed .
i am a parent also and i am always be updated about my kids activities in social media or any place in internet.

Safeguards may only apply to videos but about advertising, I think gambling and pornography sometimes appear in advertisements as well and that has happened. After all, if the children are still not of school age then I'm not sure they will easily access what is shown in the video, because usually they only like about the graphics and appearance on the screen and not about the story or the content of the intent and purpose of the video. But yes, supervision and mentoring will always be something that parents should prioritize, not only in videos but also in their children's interactions.
