Never gamble in front of your kids.

[umbara ardian]

Gambling in front of kids? Totally get the concern! While it ain't inherently bad, seeing adults having fun at the slots or whatever might make little ones wanna copycat before they're ready for the grown-up world of chance. Like, imagine a kid trying to sneak their piggy bank into a casino – not cool!

That's why keeping your poker face on around the kiddos is a good move. But let's be real, those online gambling streamers are everywhere on social media, and kids are there too, scrolling like ninjas. It's like trying to keep out sugar ants – nearly impossible!

Instead of freaking out about what we can't control, let's focus on what we can. Talk to your kids about gambling, don't sugarcoat it. Explain the risks, the ups and downs, and how it's not a magic money machine. Think of it like teaching them about crossing the street – gotta be aware and responsible, ya know?

I think it depends on where you live because each country has different culture.

There's a country where gambling is illegal, if someone want to gamble, they will try in a safe place because it's sensitive. This will make people encouraged to not gamble in front of their kids.

There's a country where gambling is legal, moreover if they're liberals, so any people including kids can choose what they want to do and what they want to be.

Yes, where we live or the country where we live will be an influence on every gambling activity.

And it is true that some countries have regulations against gambling, but it is not certain that all people there will completely stay away from gambling activities because the gambling industry will always have fans who come from any country, even if it is country that prohibits gambling.
There will be various ways to avoid or hide traces of gambling so that it is not known by the government or legal authorities in that country.
Usually gamblers when gambling online will change their IP address by using VPN.
And if they gamble physically, they will gamble in remote places which are not easy to find if there is gambling activity there.
Moreover, every country will have various areas which are divided quite lot and in certain areas there will always be special places which are really guarded to be able to carry out various illegal activities or activities which are prohibited by the state, in this case there is sufficient circulation of money. large so that it does not rule out the possibility of bribery for protection.

However, gambling in front of children is not recommended even though the country has permit for gambling, this will create curious attitude for child to engage in gambling activities even if it is just trying.
It is not matter of licensing in country and the habits of adults but of disrupting the growth and development of child brain and skills, it is clear that gambling will affect all of that.

It is because of the negative consequences of gambling by kids that adults are sternly advised not to expose any gambling activity to kids as they're not mentally matured enough to handle the the effects of gambling. I've been able to see kids who unfortunately got exposed to gambling at their very tender age becoming gambling addicts which makes them to be dangerous to themselves and their future as well as anyone around them. For a kid to engage in gambling, he's definitely gonna get addicted when he/she does, the next thing is to steal from people around them just to get funds that'll be used in gambling.

Gambling activities must be kept out of reach of children, if their parents are involved in gambling they must gamble outside the home and never make their activities known to their children, they must also monitor children's activities on their cellphone history and make sure they never access gambling links and advertising promotions gambling. I think the right solution should be to limit cell phone use because the influence of online gambling starts from cell phone use, so the involvement of parental supervision becomes an important role to limit activities that are not appropriate for the child's age, they can overcome gambling problems in children if parents carry out regular monitoring of activities inside and outside.

Just not letting them have any idea of what you are doing is the best-case scenario.
I gamble at home, my children only know that I am playing a game and I don't let them see what the game is. Also, I am putting on a headset so they won't hear anything that is happening. I mean, kids are really good now at searching the internet so even the sounds could give them a hint of what their daddy is playing and I don't that to happen.
Keep it out of their reach as much as possible, do not let them have any idea, even just a simple hint about it because they might bump into it in some Youtube video and they will realize what is happening.
Their innocence is important to me so that they will grow as a good person who won't waste time gambling. It's true, we are responsible for what they will learn because kids are copying what their old men are doing. It's better if we keep them in bay about the bad habits in life.
I also stopped smoking for them, so they might not do it someday. Because that kind of bad habit is also a waste of money and causes health problems only. Simple. I don't want them to end up like me so as much as possible, keep them away from what we had experienced.

Environment shapes behavior, we know. Gambling is a double-edged sword. Not disguising it with VPNs or hidden areas. It's a gunshot wound bandage. Now, to the true issue: children. They absorb everything like sponges. Let them gamble? Playing with fire. Not just legality, but accountability. Their brains and talents are developing. Gambling? A gamble they shouldn't take. Period. The line must be drawn. Encourage safe gambling? Absolutely. Maintain an adult game. Kids should be kids. Please don't take it away. Their growth and future are our priority

The environment was the cause of the character for a particular person,So the parents will cause their children to become a gambler in near future.But only some people thing gambling as the sin,So they believe the children who become the gamblers will lose everything.The gamblers who play with more responsibility also able to make good money in the gambling site.The children mostly used the work place of their parents or vpn with the parent id will able to do the gambling at the younger age.The children are not accountable to anyone,So they will play the gambling till they lose their holdings money in to the gambling site.

There are many things we should not do in front of our children. Gambling is one of them. Smoking and drinking alcohol is one of them. Driving a car fast is one of them. There are many behaviors we should not do in front of our children. We should also avoid behaviors that can negatively affect their pedagogy. Both mental and physical development of children between the ages of 0-12 is a very sensitive stage. Parents should be careful during this period. However, parents should also learn that when they grow up, they are adults and can make their own decisions.

There's a country where gambling is legal, moreover if they're liberals, so any people including kids can choose what they want to do and what they want to be.

Sure, the culture in each country can be different. And there are countries that legalize the gambling and there are countries that forbid the gambling. So, people may gamble in a different way in a different country. For people who gamble in a country that gambling is legal, they can gamble any where. But people who gamble in a country that gambling is illegal, they must be worried if people know their gambling activities.

However, I'm sure all the gamblers in any country, will never try to gamble in front of their children. Even if the gamblers won't forbid their children to gamble, I'm sure most of gamblers don't expect to see their children be the next gamblers. They must assume that gambling is too risky for the children. It also may bring negative impact such as addiction and loan trap, if the children have no proper way in managing their gambling habits.

Well, gambling in the casino should not be prohibited first in any country, a child should not have access to games of chance and thirdly a child who is with his parents and the parents play because the rules have to be explained to them. things well because they cannot be doing things for them to play, if children play, it should be something else, something in line with their age, that is why the casino has a requirement, that they be older, being of legal age it is not possible break any type of law, they cannot and should not play.

For us to do things right, it is Better not to take our children to a casino because it is an Environment where they have nothing to look for, this is something that we must see to be able to learn, children are delicate, they need special care, Sometimes if they are very Young it is not advisable for them to see us or play.

Children generally learn from others. Their greatest teachers are their parents. A child tries to imitate what the parents do. Children imitate parents' good and bad discussions or they may pretend not to hear. Parents should avoid discussing bad things in front of children. When  parent discusses gambling in front of a child, the child will try to listen with interest. If there is a negative discussion, every parent should discuss it later or not to in front of their children. Today's children are so advanced that it can be difficult for many parents to know about them. Parents should be as careful as possible about these factors.

[Makus]

Kids learn too fast, especially by imitation. They like to practice what they see be it good or bad, so gambling in front of a kid is dangerous, if the child decides to search for gambling online site and plays it at his own secret time, he might end up becoming addicted before the parents could even notice. Besides, now adays one can be a gambling and people around him would not even notice due to how classified he wants it to be.

Actually children are easily to learn on what they saw. Curiosity of children lead them to involve such things and if Their parents gamble in front of them then one thing for sure they will try it cause they feel thats okay cause their parents did.  But in reality not just the parents but also all people around them if a children lives in a crowded place a lot of gamblers then without a doubt many children will  involve in gambling even though In their younger age.  Influencers are everywhere so we need to take good care of our children.

The confusion side of this you can't defend is when your underaged child requests for a gambling fund after seeing you gambling, I am just thinking if you would tell the child that gambling is a bad habit which doesn't suit him or you would tell him he is not at the age to Gambling yet.
Nomatter how you responds to this child within your two response, it would sure have an impact on the child.
Because he would either question you why then you still get yourself involved in a habit you know it is not good and the other side, he may stand still to grow up to the age he could be permitted to gamble and he would come to you and ask you for the same gambling fund. I am sure you would come up with a different excuse then. Hmm. This is so serious.
We know how ridiculously interested children could be in imitating people. Especially when. You are the parents.
If I have to be expensively raw about this, gambling in front of your kid is as having sex in front of your wife being their mother.
They might take it for no offense and somedays they would either want to exercise same practice with your wife, there mom or to someone else. This is really trouble.
Please don't  do so unless that if your child has grown beyond a kid before you could be free at gambling in and out of him because he must have got decisions to make for himself then.

For parents who really have productive thoughts for their children development, they will not do anything related to gambling in front of their children, but they will tend to provide better learning and education.
But in reality there are still many parents who are negligent and do some stupid things which result in child being curious to follow what their parents do, this is mistake that occurs as result of parents who are negligent.
Even now, there are many school children who are really familiar with gambling and do it like game that they have to play every day, many are starting to experience the bad effects, but they have really been influenced by gambling.
Role of parents will be very important in the survival of child and when problem occurs, it is the responsibility of the parent as figure who must be able to overcome it by trying to heal and prevent children from various forms of gambling activities.

But it would indeed be more difficult to protect children from any problems and bad habits of gambling if there were various supports that made it easier for them to be able to carry out all gambling activities without any obstacles.
Now everything will be much easier and is guaranteed to enable more underage children to know and continue to carry out gambling activities anytime and anywhere.

Absolutely right, because they learn in the easiest way for them - they imitate. In the behavior of parents, their habits, their attitude to others and to themselves. And I think it would be very bad for any problematic gambler to see his children start repeating the mistakes of their parents. And it would be quite harmful for children to see their father asking other people for money, how he lies and disappears for many hours unknown where. That's probably why the problematic gamblers themselves say that people with such an addiction are not worthy of having children.
Sadly.

Kids learn too fast, especially by imitation.

Besides, now adays one can be a gambling and people around him would not even notice due to how classified he wants it to be.

Children now learning faster than children from a few years ago. They can understand many things without takes too long and can apply what their parents or adults people do without difficult. That makes parents and others need to be careful when they want to use their devices and not show their activity using their devices in front of their children. Parents needs guiding their kids with good so their kids don't follow what other kids do because that can harm their life without their parents know.

It's not easy for parents teach something that parents don't familiar with so parents needs to learn more to know how to guide their kids better. It needs time but if parents can learn better, they will not have a problem while they teach their kids about good thing. The important thing is parent don't show their gambling activity to their kids because we don't know what will happen to our kids if they start playing gambling without their parents know.

I was searching in the internet about gambling addiction statistics, and if I understood wikipedia article correctly, then among all gamblers, become addicted to gambling are less than 5% of all gamblers. I thought that number would be greater. If not every single kid get interested and curious what parents do, not every single kid repeat activities parents do, then the chance that kid will get addicted to gambling is far below 5%. Correct me if I am wrong. Kids and gambling addiction is least problem kids have. I think their social media or video gaming addictions is much stronger and dangerous, as they lose connection with reality and live more in virtual worlds.

Yes, I agree with that, so far I haven't seen many children addicted to gambling, I think they have reasons not to become active gamblers there because their minds are not ready to earn their own money and are more focused on studying at school. That's probably why children they are not really addicted to gambling because they have nothing to pursue in gambling unless they really want to just have fun with their friends, so a child will not follow the behavior of their parents in gambling which is usually the case when parents gamble only to earn money to find additional necessities for life.

So that's why many adults are more addicted to gambling than children because I believe in their vision and mission of gambling at the beginning, if it's because of money they will usually easily get addicted to gambling, sometimes I often see neighborhood children playing slot gambling around the house. usually they just have fun with their friends and don't overdo it, let alone be addicted to gambling, occasionally I often see them playing while laughing and laughing at the gambling they do, they don't really take it seriously.

Indeed they are not interested in money. Many connect gambling with money only; people gamble to increase their deposit, but not to get some fun, spend time and etc. I really dont think that any kid has any money problems right now. In the past (50-100 years ago for example) kids indeed have sort of a money problem, but that was overall family money problem, and kids helped parents to earn. Modern kids dont need money or dont need them a lot. At least not until they are in high school. What kids need extra money for? Toys? Candies? Most parents make their wishes come true instantly, they just have to want it and tell it. And definitely kids wont gamble to get fun. They get a fun all the time. I doubt that they will use exactly gambling as a source to get fun.

[indah rezqi]

Basically, never gamble at home, as much as possible choose another place to do it even though it is based on online gambling. Delete your browsing history when you visit any website related to gambling, because it could be that without our knowledge, children like to explore our cellphones. The impact of gambling in front of children is quite large, they will tend to no longer respect you if they understand that gambling is a bad thing, and will also follow in your footsteps if they are curious about the games you play.

In my opinion, these two things include other impacts, in the long term, gambling in front of children makes them trapped in a period of Inferiority Complex (feeling inferior), because they have parents who behave badly. Therefore, as much as possible, do not gamble in front of children, because we will never be able to control other impacts that may result from our own actions. Even if children already know about our gambling activities, then giving them an understanding is a wise solution.
