Minimum Age to gamble

[LUCKMCFLY]

Children can gamble at an early age, but they need to be accompanied by their parents to avoid crossing their limits. But remember that they are still children and should not be introduced to gambling because they just want to play, and gambling is not a game for them. In the future, there may be a psychological impact on these children's growth and development because their road to adulthood is still long, and they still need guidance from their parents. That is why it is better for their parents not to introduce gambling to them and to introduce them to other things that are more useful for them at their age.

Gambling regulations have regulated the age limit permitted for gambling since children are at least 18 years old, so anyone who gambles under that age has violated the law set by the government without exception even though the child will be accompanied by their parents to gamble. You have explained the negative impact on children who are addicted to gambling, the negative data shows that the risk of underage children who are addicted to gambling is higher because they do not have self-control and they have to have their own income if they use money for betting.

Right. Anyone who gamble at a minor age will sure to be restricted from any legal gambling site, regardless if they have their parents to guide them. Otherwise, if the site go against with the law, it might be put into investigation until they will be restricted not to operate again.

However, gambling at the right age is still not enough to consider that he will be gambling responsibly. He should be oriented first on the risks of gambling, and how it can be beneficial when use as an entertainment and how it can ruin lives when used as a source of income.

Yes, that's right and the reason why official gambling prohibits minors from gambling is because the casino doesn't want to take the risk that one day it will be accused of illegal gambling because it accepts underage customers and I think this has also been explained by several users here and parents really have to be responsible. regarding their child's behavior to provide guidance to their child to stay away from any gambling and provide an explanation about the dangers of gambling and if that happens parents should not blame the gambling party because it is the fault of the parents who failed to provide insight to their own children.
For gamblers who are of a suitable age to gamble, there will be no guarantee that if they will gamble responsibly, age will not affect the adult mindset but it is all about principles If someone under age has strong principles, they will definitely have a big responsibility and not only in gambling alone even in all kinds of problems.

Most of the gambling sites and casino will always notify their customers that gambling is rated 18+ which is to notify all minors to desist from gambling. However, there are still underage people who merely looking at them, one can't be able to guess their right age because they've grown past their normal age. These set of people easily gamble in offline gambling platforms because they're not recognized as underage because of their very big side. Age is very important when gambling as minors are believed to be too fragile to make decisions when it comes to gambling and can't control their gambling habits.

Well, when I refer to the fact that casinos and games of chance in general are for Adults and that this is fun, it is for adults, it is because basically that is what it is, a game for adults, because a very high degree of responsibility is enshrined and what can be done. For the good of everyone, then when a person who is a minor enters a casino, Whether online or Physical, things can get into trouble for everyone, because the only thing casinos do is be in trouble if a police commission or something If you start supervising them, it will not go well for them, because it is a serious offense to have a minor in a casino, and if a minor plays and wins, they cannot pay him because he is a minor, then everything that is with adult things for children is a failure, it should not be given, it is something that should not be Reciprocated because it is for Adult fun, so when minors exist Other types of games Where they do not include this from the caisno where they have more responsibility for everything .

For casinos, what matters most to them is the Opinion of their Clients, Obviously Adults, Because they consider Themselves Adults since they are responsible for their actions, and if they have a fault, they generally have to respond and not do it like that and let it go. to pass, that is why being of legal age is required, in some countries a person is considered to be of legal age over 21 years, because they are more mature and have more control of the things they can achieve, in You think that you are in South America and others say that you are considered of legal age at 18 years of age, so at least 18 years of age is when you can say that you are a person of legal age and that you have the right to enter a casino to What Fun could he have, and after that it is a problem that the person with what he does can respond to the things he does or does not do, but it is another matter, we no longer deal with a minor who what he brings to these places is a very big Problem.

I think the gambling age should be raised even higher because we realize later that the decisions we make at an early age affect us in our future life. Therefore, when we have this habit at an early age, we sometimes get into the business of gambling with money that will be large sums of money for ourselves. This gives us the chance to lose maybe money or maybe different things. That's why I think the gambling age should be higher than 21.

Gambling sites have set a minimum age limit for gamblers but the gamblers themselves do not make those rules but school and college students below 18 years of age are involved in gambling. Especially when young children use mobile phones or PCs or tablets, they willingly participate in gambling, thereby spoiling their education and causing mental damage. Although Guardian Mahal is always worried about this addiction of children but they have nothing to do afterwards. Therefore, the minimum age limit in casinos or gambling sites should be 21 years or more so that boys and girls cannot participate in schools and colleges.

There isn't much difference between the ages of 18 and 21, the real point to note is that children below the age of 18 are also found guilty of gambling. How is it possible that kids aged 16 or below are accessing gambling sites, having the money to gamble and also bypassing the KYC requirements?

If we dig down, we will know that they are gambling using their parents' or big brother's account and also, they are being funded by their parents to gamble. Now if the children get the bad effects of gambling, do not perform well in their studies and become addicted to gambling, who is to blame?

It's the parents who are responsible for their kid's gambling, as without their consent and willingness the children and under ages won't be able to gamble.

Just like Alchohol consumption which have an age limit for consuming it,  same it is with gambling many all the countries that approve for it gambling license have all followed to minimum age requirement needed to be able to gamble,  but just like every other government regulation and law,  there is always a problem of follow up with implementations and at that you must have to discover and follow the right part yourself and being able to protect yourself from becoming worst while gambling so for that you need to place your own limit even if and when the government already place such limits.

I was just thinking exactly this while reading replies when I came upon your post . How underage kids still, likely using a fake identification, purchase and consume alcohol despite the age restrictions placed on the purchase and consumption of alcohol.
Having age limits is fine and a good step in keeping underage kids from indulging in adult activities but how well is the enforcement of such rules? There are underage kids who gamble as well as other adult activities as kids would always look for an avenue to do what they want.

We all have a part to play in enforcement of such rules and should deter such behavior whenever possible. Parents should be more aware of any change in their children’s behaviors and actions and nip in the bud, any potentially harmful behavior.

This is why I said kids have to do their part too, the enforcement of the rules will never be perfect, in fact this cannot ever be the case, just look at all the major crimes that are committed, is every single one of those cases solved? Not really, in a perfect world this will be the case but we are not living in such a world, and if that happens with such important crimes then it is to be expected that lesser crimes and offenses have an even lower resolution rate.

No one cares about our children apart from ourselves as parents. And does the government care enough about children as the nation's successors? Not really and who knows how many small children are neglected and live on the streets as homeless people. And or does a teacher as a second parent at school care enough about our children? It doesn't seem like it, because when there is a problem they return it to their parents so that they can guide and develop them.

However and no matter how busy we are, our children and their future are still part of our responsibility as parents. So, take as much time as possible to participate in educating and providing understanding to children, especially in moral education, mentality, ethics and good understanding. We need to do this so that our children can be protected from everything that will have a negative impact on the child's growth and development.

Many people thing their was no need to restrict the kids to the gambling sites.But the kids also learn the game from the gambling and play to win more then their father.Many global based gambling sites doesn’t require the age as the break for the gambling.The developed countries doesn’t consider the gambling as the problematic for them.The children below 14 was strictly not allowed by the government an the gambling sites based on the law created.The parent gambler should not allow their children below 14 for the game,because at the age of 14 or low children doesn’t have capacity to take the decision.

Restrict or not but still there's no way that you could really be able to stop your kids on seeing gambling and even if you do restrict them then their curiosity will really be pushing them to check out
on whats gambling. So it would really be that better that you should really be teaching them about on whats gambling and what are the risks that imposed into it. If you wont really be that
giving those basic ideas about on what it is then they might be able to miss out on what are the best things to be done on the time that they would be able to encounter gambling ahead.
We know that young people would really be that curious on what are the things that they do encounter specially on first time and since we do speak about making money on easy way
then it would really be just that normal that they would really be that getting interested.

There has just been a new documentary about gambling and the cost it causes for society compared to the tax revenue gambling businesses generate. There was a conservative estimate that the cost for society is about three times as high as the tax revenue generated, meaning that gambling never is a positive net profit business for the government in most countries. Maybe you could argue that it depends on the tax rate and so on of course.

Age was also discussed there and the rate of 18-25 years old young men getting into gambling is currently going through the roof. So yes minimum age to gamble, it is difficult because I think any adjustments of minimum ages for either alcohol or smoking hasn't really changed much either. If there is a way to do something, people will try it out. I think it should never be too low, but hoping that minimum ages change entire social landscapes is a broken dream.

Nowadays, we notice that young people are the subject in most crime cases of rape, killing or gambling, because even you said that children or young should take their part too it, in reality they were not its because they still need a guidance from whom? Of course, guidance from their parents. I know always parents are not to blame always always for their children being in gambling or crimes, but notice a large percentage of young age being associated with gambling or in crimes are the children's that doesn't get enough attention and guidance from their parents, also the poverty are to one also to blame, that's why many young age will find a way to earn money in result to their exposure to gambling. You see, without proper guidance, children will be on the wrong path. So, even if the online casinos set up a minimum age, the age will still find a way to access it because the rules are easy to bypass online.

The role of parents is very important, especially in introducing something good or bad. something they can do or not. and there must be responsibility for all actions. that will make teenagers more responsible for what they do. To be honest, teenagers will be very difficult to control. What parents can do is provide understanding and reasonable reasoning to their teenagers.

even though gambling sites can be accessed by anyone, not even bound by age or gender. no matter rich or poor, those who want to gamble must be responsible with their finances. Don't let it involve or even harm other people.

Having a good communication and comprehension between parents and their child is one of the major thing that needs to prevent having a vices at the young age. As you've said,  Teenagers is quite difficult to control because they are at the age wherein curiosity is a high level. better to talk with them and explain what will be the effect of being involve in gambling at such a young age. Living in this modern society, we can't deny the fact that kids (under legal ages) are more open and aware about how gambling works.

Adolescents still need guidance from their parents so they don't go down the wrong path, but in reality, there are still many children who go down the wrong path due to a lack of supervision and guidance from their parents. Many teenagers see violence in their households, which makes them run away from home and choose to stay at a friend's house. If his friends understand the problems he is facing, they will always support him, but if not, they will only influence him to take the wrong path, and in the end, the teenager will also take things on the wrong path. So if the age limit for gambling in casinos could be increased to above 20 years, perhaps it could prevent children under 20 years from entering casinos. But I thought that nowadays, there are only so many online casinos that can make it easy for teenagers to access them without anyone knowing.

Even people who are old enough still behave in a childish manner when gambling and are not able to control their gambling activities well, let alone underage children. Apart from their inadequate capacity and not being able to make mature decisions, financially they still depend on their parents. And what I fear is when they fall into a gambling addiction while financially they are unable to fulfill their desire to gamble. And this could encourage the child to behave badly, such as selling family items without the parents' knowledge or telling other lies to the parents in order to get some money for gambling.

Parents play a vital role in how their kids will behave towards a certain thing. If they are the type who have good communication and connection with each other, it will be very easy to educate them on how things are being done and what can be the result if they get involved in gambling.
 
But there is also one thing about parents and children in the aspect of the kids taking their advice very seriously or not. The manner in which some parents pass information over to their kids most times is not really helpful as they use forceful ways to communicate as if they are fighting or quarrelling with them, adding fear to the child's body, which doesn't really add any positive value to the child.

Even if gambling seems to be a bad thing if one can't control themselves, if parents don't use the right manner to educate a child, they will never learn, adding to the fact that we are in a technological age where they can learn anything online.

Maybe you could argue that it depends on the tax rate and so on of course.

Isn't this kind of thing detrimental to gamblers because every tax is borne by the community?
Even though this is only film I am sure that films like this are usually taken from true stories and aim to raise awareness among the public that gambling can never produce truly clean profits.
A similar thing also happens in several countries where every tax will be borne by the gambler but this is if the gambler wins, but they assume that the proceeds from taxes like this will be allocated as aid to those in need and also for social purposes such as charity.

Age was also discussed there and the rate of 18-25 years old young men getting into gambling is currently going through the roof. So yes minimum age to gamble, it is difficult because I think any adjustments of minimum ages for either alcohol or smoking hasn't really changed much either.

The age of 18 to 25 years is the productive age for teenager who is growing up to be able to develop it's just that in some places people of that age are already familiar with the black world such as drugs.
Just consuming alcohol and smoking is normal but drugs or gambling should be something that must be avoided for those who are in the developing phase.
Unfortunately, age limits cannot really be benchmark for every activity especially in the world of gambling and the streets.

You literally need to install the app and the betting world is open to you. Therefore, children who have smartphones everywhere today can install these applications very easily. And it will be very difficult to track on their smartphone that the orebenok began to gamble. Although in the past, children would need to visit a casino in their city and get to it. And no one would have let him in there. And now the children only need to click the check mark in the agreement "you are 18 years old."

Parents do play a vitale role, but it is also your other social ties and what kind of activities they pursue. I know a lot of guys who got into poker just because their friends got into poker and it became a normal thing to play the game at parties or barbecues. From there it hasn't been a far way to also get into online poker and gambling. There is only so much that parents can do for as long as they have a significant impact on your decisions. But normally as people grow up this impact also declines, which I think is normal.

Minimum age does make sense because it works like a line of orientation for everyone. This doesn't mean it stops anyone effectively from doing something because that's not the case, but if some activities weren't limited to some minimum age, it would be more difficult for everyone to assess whether something is wrong or right.

This is definitely going to happen if an online casino does not require a KYC verifications. Though as we all know KYC possess grave threats from identity theft, but it would definitely helps us to protect ourselves and our children, ONLY IF it's being used on what's supposed to be it's purpose.
But then again, it's still risky giving away your vital information to a company/organization over the internet.

There's actually another way of monitoring your child's activities in his device by installing a monitoring app. It's one way of knowing if they are visiting online casinos or not, including websites that does not suitable for children.

Age was also discussed there and the rate of 18-25 years old young men getting into gambling is currently going through the roof. So yes minimum age to gamble, it is difficult because I think any adjustments of minimum ages for either alcohol or smoking hasn't really changed much either. If there is a way to do something, people will try it out. I think it should never be too low, but hoping that minimum ages change entire social landscapes is a broken dream.

Age isn't a measurement on the maturity of a person so restriction on gambling and other vices is utterly useless because it maturity of a person on mind and behavior is different for each and everyone. What really needs to be done if we really want to prevent people from gambling too early or doing vices too early is to teach them basic responsibility and not in a way that teaches them using boring videos about the negative effects portrayed by art students that needs to do it for extra credit, also it's worth mentioning that a stricter and more stern punishment for illegal gambling will help big time in preventing early introduction to gambling. If you ask me, there should be no minimum age and as I have said earlier, the metric should be on how mature a person is and not their age because it can be deceiving.
