The Rise of Mobile Gambling Is Leaving People Ruined and Unable to Quit

[fullhdpixel]

I guess it boils down to the culture, In Asia, children are being taught to respect their elders. And in turn elders or parents can snoop on their children without having their kids calling the cops or something like in the West.

But I do agree that parents is one factor that really shape the minors. If they see that their parents are playing around with their smart phones, for sure they could be influence and might play their parents phone or them registering and gambling when their parents is not around.

Will kids really do that? Calling the cops just because their parents or sibs, checking out their stuffs? Dang that's kinda crazy but you are right, that it's mostly about the culture. I too noticed that most Asian kids are polite and not that spoiled as when compared to the kids in other foreign countries ie U.S.A. We as a parent, we also need to be careful with what we are doing and when we know that it's not right for our kids then we should only do it away from their sight. On the original topic, the rise of mobile gambling isn't only bringing an issues but it also have lots of advantages but can be mainly applied for those who have a control of themselves.

The value of parenthood among these new generations of high-tech technologies is really important. We all discuss the potential risk of those young minds, especially with all those bad influences that they can watch/read online. But you are right with your sentiments, kids nowadays are protected by local laws which give them the right to put their parents in jail, the reality that way back kids are the one who are in jail when parent restrict them to anything.

Today's generation is prone to the threat of any potentially addicted hobbies. It's not limited to gambling, but there are more things that really engage people by using the internet.

The easy access using any mobile or digital devices permits them to enjoy whatever they desire to do.

Almost everything can access via mobile right now, but most of the modern parents now cannot monitor their child usage of mobile phones or any device they are using, they are too busy at work or in their own recreational activities, new generations are easily be affected by fraudulent acts online, and if they want to gamble even they are not yet at legal age they can still do it as long as they have the money. If we feel difficulties managing our loses what more to those younger age right.

In my country, online gambling began to spread to a wider user because of the games that were originally developed not for gambling, but user used this app as places to gamble. From here, then many people are looking for online gambling, until finally getting used to it. This means, games (non-gambling) with a gambling-like interface also have an influence on the desire to start gambling. The terrible thing is, many 10+ yo children also play games with this gambling interface. This is considered normal by their parents because they are thinking its not a gambling, but mostly from this app have a high possibility of the child being addicted to gambling.

The influence on the game that results in bigger bets must be prevented when the child has not fallen into gambling that can damage morale. Supervision needs to be done by parents to prevent their children from becoming gambling addicts. As a result of parental negligence or being too indifferent to what the child does, sooner or later it will backfire for parents.
The more sophisticated the technology, the easier it will be for anyone to play gambling, gambling applications can be installed easily and can be played anywhere. Prevention from parents must be done early on so that children do not take actions that can harm people when they are addicted to gambling.

Before the introduction of the mobile phone, people were addicted to gambling. Now, they have introduced online gambling, the addiction has become deadly. Even the underage can now have access to gambling without being cautioned or monitored. Which is not right.

Having easy access to the Internet is good but it has ruined the lives of the young ones. Which has led them to the wrong part of life.

There are two things here. One is the mobile gaming and second is the mobile gambling. Both are interrelated and the fact that it has become more than easier to play games on your mobile devices these days have made youngsters addict to their mobile phones.
It has been observed that many youngsters are addicted to mobile gaming and stick to their phones throughout the day.
Adding to that, gambling has taken it's advantage and has made mobile gambling very effective way for casino owners to earn a hefty income.
As we know how addicted people are to mobile gaming, gambling at the same time has made many youngsters addict to gambling as well.
The problem arises when these youngsters are losing big amounts of money which they haven't even earned yet.
Many times it's either borrowed from someone else or it's their parents'/relative's money which they use for gambling.
The rise of mobile gambling has definitely increased the number of gambling addicts as well.

The role of parents is highly expected to educate their children from an early age to use mobile devices, if the parents are negligent and do not monitor their children's activities, they will be easily influenced by accessing casino sites due to gambling application advertisements from large platforms, so their mobile devices must be filtered with search features and also use of mobile applications. But even though the child is not comfortable for its protected use, he will know the benefits when he is an adult.

Parenting is a crucial role for us parents which we do really need to guide up our children on the right path even though gambling isnt really that 100% bad but in overall when addiction hits then it would really be

destroying your childrens life and this is why its really important that letting them know on what the truth and whats the con's on dealing up with gambling and in todays tech and accessibility then it cant really be

possible that you would able to avoid them 100% which means that it will really be playing out on how you would really be making them out those kind of realizations which is a must for them to at least
aware on what are the actions should be made if ever they would encounter it.

Since parenting is crucial to the kids development, parents must know the current technology, issues and problems.  Parents must be always updated on the technology of controlling their childrens access to the applications that connect to the internet.  Parent's must know an app that enable them to tap on the devices and limits tv programs, online videos and other stuff that may bring harm to their children especially gambling activities.

Since mobile applications of gambling are rampant, the parent must use a programmable application that limits their children from accessing gambling sites, porn site, and other violent-oriented sites and videos.  And if ever kids are exposed to gambling unexpectedly while accessing the mobile device, parents must be well equipped with gambling knowledge so that they can explain clearly about the possibilities of getting involved in gambling. I always believe in exposure and education than totally shutting down to the subject matter.

Well thesedays parents get too comfortable leaving their children playing with their mobile devices and as for the result when the child found something interesting like an apps that earn you cash then as time goes by they found a game that earn you money then you finally found gambling as a comfortable game.

Trouble has been found! And everyone has a responsibility to solve this all.

As parents can't look after their kids 24/7, what they can do is instill the discipline or teach about money principles.
Teach the importance of money and where to spend it best. As kids will try at one point one of these apps.
But if they knew where the money comes from and how it is being earned, they may think twice.
We can't dictate these young people because you can't be there all the time. They have their own disposition even at a younger age.

It's because of this we need to teach children the value of money, obviously they understand the concept of exchanging money for products and services already, but they need to understand how much effort you need to put forward to earn that money, and if you teach that lesson to your kids at an early age then you'll not have too much to worry about your kids squandering their money, as they'll understand very well how much effort is needed to get back all the money they could potentially lose if they gamble.

That's true. I have a teenager kid, at her young age she already know how to value money and how to spend it wisely. I think she became matured as being the eldest, the one who understand us more (her parents) who are both working. Thus I dont have this kind of problem about gambling even they have their own mobile phone. They always ask permission if they want to install a gaming app and even they're playing, there's a limit on when they are allowed to play (often after school activities).

People were having some difficulties to access the gambling place like casino in the past but this time people can access it even from their hand. That was easily making people become addicted with the gambling that can ruin their life anytime. The additiction will be even more massive caused by this time majority of people owned phone. People are always prefer doing such thing from their phone. that's why macau was become a dead place for now. it's caused by so many gamblers are accessing it through their device.
I do agree if people spent mostly of their time in their phone. Even they can do this anywhere and anytime.

It can be done by not giving children everything they want and ask anytime. Normally, kids who don't have any limits are likely to develop problematic behavior when they grow up. Since everything in their lives was so easy to achieve, they don't value things, especially money, because it has become trivialized and easily acquired from their parents without any rules or conditions.
Then these children won't think twice before spending money irresponsibly, as they know there is more from where it has come and can be claimed as soon as they demand. Of course at some point it will become a serious issue and there won't be enough money to cover the children's expenses, so it's better parents pay attention to them and change this reality before it's too late...

There is no prohibition for gambling but when it turns into an addiction it poses a threat in some cases. Especially in places where gambling is still illegal. Today's mobile devices are so sophisticated that even devices like computers. If this gambling is managed by the gamblers through regulation then it does not have any bad effects. The biggest challenge is self-control.

Yes, because gambling was invented long time ago but the number of addicts before are only less when compared to now that people can now access the web using only their mobile phone. Underage people can access the gambling site but they are only limited there. They can't sign up on it because they are not 18 years old or above as we know that many crypto casinos now are asking for a KYC.

What underage people are addicted at is not mobile gambling but it was mobile gaming. I don't generalize them because there are still kids who have a self discipline and know how to use their gadgets properly. Thanks to the parents that raised them.

With a phone, everything is more accessible, and it's not a phone anymore it's a little computer! When I was a kid my first comp was PC 286, 640 KB RAM memory... discs and floppy discs. Now, these phones are like supercomputers.

Well, some parents are trying to provide other options for their kids. My kids are little, but they spend less time on phones than other kids of their age I see around. Simply we try to find something interesting for kids to do throughout the day that isn't a phone or cartoons. It's easier to manipulate kids while they are little, we will see what will be when they grow up and when the world and friends become a more important factor in their life.

There are still a lot of kids and teenagers that are not into online gambling but rather to online gaming. However there are some instance where these teenagers will want something to buy but they can afford to which is why they try to find ways of earning such as online gambling while some capitalize their gaming skills to online gambling. It's best for us grown ups to moderate what our children are doing and try to educate them about other alternatives to avoid such as thing.

If you try to compare old computers and devices before to what we have right now, then almost everything can be considered as supercomputer since almost all gadgets before are too old and outdated.

Unfortunately, as much as you want to avoid your children to computers, phones and other electronics, you can't. Just as you've said, most people their age are already into electronics, in time your children will also be influence in the near future. It's good that you try to  avoid your children to electronics now however there are a lot of positive things that can be associated to electronics to children such as educational videos, activities and such. I suggest to let them explore gadgets and electronic but limit them as it is what the current times are now.

that's exactly what's happening right now. The presence of online gambling has made it easier for gamblers. Access can be achieved by anyone who has a smartphone and internet connection. including minors. I even found many parents who had stopped gambling to become active again when they found out that through their cellphone they could easily gamble. In countries like Korea and Japan, gambling is under their control. because people there gamble more during payday. and the children there have been given education related to gambling which can only be done by adults. and minors are prohibited from entering it.
So gambling is quite controlled in the country so it doesn't damage the younger generation.

online gambling are threading gambling everywhere but the thing is that nobody is trying to play a manual gambling this present time, in the most of the countries they playing gambling seriously and i believe that gambling now is being Best online and no country who is lover of gambling that has not turn up in online gambling.
