Never gamble in front of your kids.

[Adbitco]

Adults also get addicted to gambling quickly.

In short, gambling chooses no one and everyone is prone to the addiction that it can bring. Both can be addicted to gambling without noticing it and even as adults, we've seen stories in real life and in the forum that many of them have became one and can't help themselves upon containing it.

Not being able to manage finances and emotions and greed to get more money is a combination that will make adults also become addicted to gambling. But children have a great curiosity and they do not know what they are doing is right or wrong. They will be very easily addicted because they have no responsibility at all. That is why it is important to know that never gamble in front of children. There is no doubt in that statement.

Greed is our worst enemy and as well as fear. Why fear? because when we're having bad results, we fear that people will look upon us as someone who's not impressed with what they see to us. We only want to show people about winning but not losing. And when you're the type of guy and a gambler and you don't want your kids to see bad things, you need to be a perfect example to them. Teach them other things instead of gambling and they'd embrace life having a better perspective instead of only wanting to see good things but of course, it's a different story if it relates to gambling.

You think there are people who still hide themselves for their lost in gambling? Well this could be true but to me i don't see any reason why someone should hide himself after making lose in gambling, and at least they should be open to understand that when they got addicted it could be very hard to control but when it's open and people knows there situation even though it's getting worse their fellow could knows and take immediate effect to restore them.

And of course people don't always want to show their lose especially it's showing a bad misrepresentation and this could also discouraged other people from getting into gambling and this act we shouldn't gamble in the front of our children due to all these things.

If the parents will be poor on emotions during gambling and dont show much of excitement, will it help to decrease interest to gambling from kids? If parents show it as a boring, repeated and exhausting activity, I think that kids dont want to try it. I think a lot matters from age. If a very young kids see parents gambler, they might show some interest, but due to game being complicated, they wont give much attention to it and most likely forget about it. But if a teenager sees how cheerful parents looks when they win, and how they tell everyone how they are going to spend the money they wont, then that might play wrong for kids mind. At this age, a kid might open google and search for gambling. But a very young kid I think will be more interested in toys, friends and video games.

There are some gambling that are boring for children, but there will be some gambling like slots that have the potential to make children addicted. I think young children don't know about money and winning. But if he is interested in the game in gambling then there is a possibility that he will try to play it and spend his parents' money. This is the same as loot or spin in online games. My friend once told me that there was a child who spent thousands of dollars from his parents' credit card because he wanted to get skins or weapons because in the game. I think it is better for children not to know gambling. And it is better if the child is a teenager, it would be better for parents to never show that they are gamblers. Not everyone has good emotional management to not get addicted to gambling.

Yeah, the UI of slots is appealing to anyone, especially in this generation where younger people like it more colorful and I think the slots providers are doing that on purpose because their target is the young guys who cannot even control their emotions and will keep on gambling as they like.

That is why as much as possible we neither let them see it nor hear it because the sound effects in the new slots are also getting better and are appealing to anyone whenever they hear it. I've been playing slots for a long time and I always use my headphones whenever I play. Also, I let my kids go upstairs to their rooms first before I gamble so that they won't have any idea what I am doing or they won't ask questions. We know kids, they are always curious about what new things they will see.

If your friend was telling you that that kid spent thousands of dollars to aquire skins and other game items in a video game, that is very likely to be true based on my own experiences as well, in the compound where I previously lived some years back, my neighbor's son, knowing the pin of his mother's atm card, spent over 300,000 Nigerian naira on buying in game items from Google play, the family had money so the mother did not find out immediately, she got to know this after some time, she immediately cut the boy off her atm card and also seized his phone, since he was still below 15 years at the time.

This teaches us that there are certain things we shouldnt give children and teenagers access to, else, they will misuse and abuse it because they don't have any slight idea what it takes to have such things.

It's a disaster for a child's life when he believes gambling is a way to earn money. That child may never try anything else as an adult to make money other than gambling. But, it's not sure who quickly gets addicted between kids and adults. I'm not sure if it's a misconception from me, yet adults quickly get addicted as well. The risk of gambling in a child's presence is way too higher than among grown-ups. Gambling peers may not have fully informed some parents of the harsh impacts this careless habit creates on their young kids. They may be doing this ignorantly and communicate this to friends who don't care about advising them.

This is a very valid point and that is why always its said that we should try to making sure we don't expose the children to gambling too early. I know that in the future these kids will later be exposed to it even if its not by their parents or their guardian. addiction to gambling isn't a thing for the adults alone, its even possible the children may even get more addicted than the adults because they would want to explore and knowing that this is something that could give them money effortlessly may be a good reason to keep trying repeatedly thereby becoming addicted.

The danger also skyrockets for the peers of such kids. They are endangering deeply the peace of a society or environment. Since adults are the guardians of society, they're needed to portray an excellent lifestyle for kids to learn. I've checked around different regions to notice the changes in adults from kids' behaviors in their environment. Kids exhibit whatever character adults play out.

Their brain is very memorable; they live with a long memory. What they learn at that stage of life will stay with them for a long while. So, it's nice to raise kids around responsible grown-ups. An accountable gambler can still find out that his kid is gambling if the child clings with the kids of an irresponsible player.

Hey gamblers' community, hope you're all doing great.
I wanted to convey my message here that gambling in front of our kids may put adverse effects on their growing minds and they may also take the wrong path and start gambling (either by asking you personally for funds or by stealing it in order to fulfill their gambling cravings).

I'm sharing this because I saw this issue with my kiddo who was once watching me gamble at a website playing blackjack and she started asking me more about the game. Then one day, she wanted to play it herself and asked me if she can go for it and I said "no, it's not your legal age to go for such games". So, it's better to keep our kiddos away from gambling and let them focus on their studies, else it'd actually ruin everything for the whole family if the kid takes the wrong path.

I support this opinion, the child should definitely not see the process of the game, because in his eyes it is an innocent game and then it can affect his perception of the real consequences of the game.

             -      Here in our country today, even if the parents don't gamble and they have children, other minors will still learn to gamble even if we tell them to be reminded by their elders. Because the promotion of gambling online is rampant on any social media platform like Facebook and YouTube,.

And we also know that the majority of children or minors are influenced to gamble because of influencers who shamelessly promote online casinos with a mixture of deception and lies to say that there is no loss.

[Blitzboy]

Nevertheless, we do a lot of different things in front of kids, and I dont understand, why, from huge variety of them, users here think, that certainly gambling will be an activity that children will want to dedicate their life to. Easy to notice, that kids get interested to things that are fun and have easy entry threshold. For example in my childhood "tag game" was the most popular outside activity. But I did not grow up as a sprinter, nor addicted to sport. It is clear that kids want to copy their parents, but they want to copy and become successful as parents. They might copy some manners, moves, but is not always like that. Otherwise we all would be a copy/paste of ancient people, and only thing we were capable to do were hunting or picking berries.

Why majority's of comments point to the fact that gambling is bad for children and should be kept out of they reach as an activity is because of the addictions tedency with gambling, yes it true that not all children Will have interest in such activities like gambling, same as not all adults are interested in it too, but the point there is that, viewing from the side of preventing any potential negative outcomes it better to outrightly keep gambling away from children and that is why parents are encouraged to keep they gambling activities from they kids to avoid any possible negative potential outcome for the kids.
Gambling have become so popular this day's because of the adoption of cryptocurrency casinos and the trend of cryptocurrency in the society, this make cryptocurrency casinos to become a motivations for anyone because of the high expectations in it, and for that, it can easily influence the interest of kids to come into gambling at any point they have such an opportunity, so keeping the away 💯 at early stages in life is most important to anyone as a parent, ordinarily also, kids like game's and gambling is games and fun so I believe majorit of kids will buy into the idea of gambling if they have the chance so let not denied the fact and risk in kids with gambling the tendency to gamble for kids that are exposed to Gambling is very high.

Kids and gambling dont mix. Thats as basic as it gets. Kids are particularly vulnerable and this whole crypto casino explosion is making it simpler than ever to get hooked on gambling. Children, after all, enjoy games. Their nature is what it is. And gambling is just a game with extra excitement from possible gains. It's a formula for catastrophe.

Our children do not need bubble-wrap. Still, we should be clever about this. We have to make sure they grasp the hazards and possible fallout. We have to show them how to make wise decisions rather than only follow transient pleasures. Ultimately, it is about safeguarding our children and preparing them for success. It also means keeping children away from gambling. Period.

That's true and they may also have peer that can also teach them how to gamble without their parents knowing, that's why is better to show them both the advantages and disadvantages . Because most people are lure into gambling due to the number of wins they have seen in a particular source, like their friends can just show them some of their wins  telling them how alot of folks have gotten rich through gambling without telling them the negative part too , which may initiate the mindset of thinking that they can get rich quick through gambling. That's why as a parents you got to put them through so that they can know what wrong and what right.

Parents should talk with their children openly and honestly about what gambling is. They need to understand that, although there are indeed stories of big wins, just as many people fall on hard times (and even addiction) due to gambling. Real-life examples or personal stories are good ways for parents to drive home the negative impact of irresponsible gambling.

Moreover, parents can enlighten kids on how to manage resources well plus ways of coming up with prudent decisions on money. This involves saving, as well as investing in a manner that is well informed, and getting to understand that wealth has no shortcuts. With a firm base of financial literacy, it will be much easier for these kids to discern risks and keep away from any allure that would push them into gambling, just to make quick money.

Teaching children critical thinking skills is just as important. It will enable them to assess the information given to them by friends or other persons and base their choice on more factual grounds rather than emotions or social pressure.

Unless the children don't see what their elders are doing. You know the mind of a child is innocent and they don't know anything, most of the things we see them doing are from one or two things they have learnt from elderly people. Children will gamble for money as long as they see people make money from gambling and the funny thing you might not see coming is that they understand things quickly than you can ever imagine.

It is in the same board about a thread where a woman was complaining bitterly that her son was influenced by his neighborhood for gambling and he now understands gambling than she can ever imagine and that is as a result of the woman brooding the kid without a father and she was asking for help that she could get by all possible. This is why parenting is necessary on every child to behave normally.

Telling a minor about the bad effects of gambling or about the bad effects of gambling that can destroy their future, yes, maybe it can help, I think anything that leads to preventive measures will always be good to do. But I don't think it will eliminate the possibility, in the sense that it doesn't mean they will continue to remember and uphold the prohibitions conveyed by their parents.

Remember that a minor has a changing mindset, they are easily trapped and carried away by the situation, especially by people closest to them such as friends for example, meaning that even though both parents have told them about the prohibition of being involved in gambling or the advantages and disadvantages of gambling, it is not certain that a child will be able to refuse an invitation from his friends, or it is not certain that the child will be able to gamble according to the approach that we always recommend.

But on the other hand I think overall it is unlikely for a minor to be interested in gambling, although it is possible for them to like various types of games provided especially in casino betting types such as slots, but it is not easy to get to running the game, we must not forget that in order to gamble you have to make a "deposit" from your local bank account along with entering some codes, and that is something complicated to do, and I am sure that a minor will immediately give up and leave it.

But will there still be gambler who does his activities in gambling with gloomy feeling and also like feeling bored, I think they will get all those feelings when they experience defeat and results that are not as expected, if everything is good then they will still look happy.
Moreover, if feel more emotional, feel bored and like don't get pleasure then I sure no one will want to continue gambling, all of these attitudes will only depend on the conditions that are happening.
On average, they will continue to gamble no matter what happens, and this is what can make child want to try and feel how to gamble, especially children have high curiosity.
And if we talk about age, I don't think it matters because now it can be seen that gambling has been known to all ages, those who are still small or school children have begun to know and secretly try some games.
There is nothing complicated because basically the game that is most in demand by most children or teenagers is slots, this is very easy type of game and anyone can play.

Yes, but still not an assured thing that those kids wont really be that becoming a gambler on the moment that they do grow old on which we know or should consider that when it comes to external factors
then there would really be no assurance that you would really be able to make yourself so sure that your children wont really be dealing up with gambling but it would really be always better that as a parent then you do really know on what are the things that should or shouldn't really be seen by our kids specially gambling. We as parents do really know on whats good or whats bad but there are some who doesnt care at all that they would really be seen by their kids as long they do able to play on what they do like. When it comes to risks then it would really be just that basically understandable that its something that must be avoided.

If you as a parent does really have that kind of hobby or interest on playing gambling then it would be responsible that you should really be that playing on your past time
on which of course that this is something that will really be out of their sight or awareness on which this one is really that recommended.

That is why children should be prevented from gambling, because if he is addicted to gambling from childhood, he will spend a lot of money of his parents and even steal money for gambling. Childhood is the right time for children to grow up. For example after we sow the seeds in the field when they germinate we use fertilizers, water irrigation and even other necessary things to grow them properly. In the same way, we have to show our children the right way to grow up properly at a young age so that they do not spoil their future in the wrong way. Moreover, today's kids are addicted to various smartphone games instead of playing on the field. So every parent should not share gambling related content in front of their children so that their child does not become addicted to gambling or not interested in gambling.

[TopTort777]

And we get all that addictions, spending things on bs like game skins and etc not because kids see us doing something and their wish to try and copy that raises, but because we spend little time giving them explanations and teaching things. You can show almost everything to kids at certain age, and if you give a good explanation, provide facts, and if the kid isnt an idiot, he wont become addicted to things.

It is lame to accuse something or someone if your kid gets into trouble. If someone kid manages to become addicted to gambling, that is not because gambling itself is bad and addictive, or kid saw adults gamble, that is because parents failed at giving explanation of gambling and addiction.

Exactly, if they see that kind of enjoyment they will seek for more information about it, just like you mentioned you never know that's they already engage on it. Things can be prevented if you know how to hide things as there's no way they will be able learn about things, though from how the technolgy is bringing things out, especially with social media channels, we need also to have that time to check on what our children is doing or visiting to avoid having engage to anything that involves gambling.

Hey gamblers' community, hope you're all doing great.
I wanted to convey my message here that gambling in front of our kids may put adverse effects on their growing minds and they may also take the wrong path and start gambling (either by asking you personally for funds or by stealing it in order to fulfill their gambling cravings).

I'm sharing this because I saw this issue with my kiddo who was once watching me gamble at a website playing blackjack and she started asking me more about the game. Then one day, she wanted to play it herself and asked me if she can go for it and I said "no, it's not your legal age to go for such games". So, it's better to keep our kiddos away from gambling and let them focus on their studies, else it'd actually ruin everything for the whole family if the kid takes the wrong path.

Whether they are your kids or not don't do this in front of them because kids emulate whatever adults do, exposing them to this lifestyle at that age might just ruin their future. That's why there are age limits and restrictions, I don't know if casino are still strict with the rule of stopping anyone not up to the age of 18 to gamble. Children are the leaders of tomorrow we should teach them valuable lessons about life. It's quite disheartening that a lot of children in Nigeria now know how to gamble

Like the saying that says what ever you don't like you shouldn't do it to anyone because of someone did it to you, you won't like it. Yeah whether your child or not it's not good to gamble when they are around you as they will not hesitate to try same thing in future or immediately you are not with them. Children are very observant and they leans so fast because at their age they do t have anything bothering them so anything they see is what they will want to try. Most children like money so much and if they sees anyone win from gamble they too will try because they have already seen how you won your money. So to secure their future so that they won't be become gamble at their early age, you don't have to gamble when they are with you.

Greed is our worst enemy and as well as fear. Why fear? because when we're having bad results, we fear that people will look upon us as someone who's not impressed with what they see to us. We only want to show people about winning but not losing. And when you're the type of guy and a gambler and you don't want your kids to see bad things, you need to be a perfect example to them. Teach them other things instead of gambling and they'd embrace life having a better perspective instead of only wanting to see good things but of course, it's a different story if it relates to gambling.

You think there are people who still hide themselves for their lost in gambling? Well this could be true but to me i don't see any reason why someone should hide himself after making lose in gambling, and at least they should be open to understand that when they got addicted it could be very hard to control but when it's open and people knows there situation even though it's getting worse their fellow could knows and take immediate effect to restore them.

And of course people don't always want to show their lose especially it's showing a bad misrepresentation and this could also discouraged other people from getting into gambling and this act we shouldn't gamble in the front of our children due to all these things.

That's because a loser is a loser. And I don't know, there's that taboo in our minds that we don't want others to see our losses. What we wanna do is to only show the wins that we have and that's why losses are being hidden because of that thought. I'm not sure for the others but that's what the majority is doing.

And what matters whether you win or lose, and if you hide them. You shouldn't show it in front of your kids. Any engagement with gambling and related activities must be hidden if you want to be a role model to them. I know that there's a kind of secretive here but you as a parent, you don't show your kids how you gamble, how emotional you are when doing it because they imitate what we do, what we feel, and what we're engaging with.
