Have you seen gambling advertisements on TV? Opinion.

[Ryu_Ar1]

While watching TV with my kid, I've watched various advertisements of gambling nature (let's say for example, Rummy123, RummyCircle, A23 Rummy, etc.)
These are all specifically Indian ads, but I'm sure you may have seen various gambling advertisements, some banners at boundaries when cricket is ongoing, even in any other sport. How would a kid ignore those things, they might just come and ask you about what is it. Till when can we lie to them? Don't you think that the frequency of such ads must be less in order to let the kids not get trapped into gambling and don't do it at such a small age?

I think for gambling advertisements only a few countries do that because indeed for my country gambling is still not allowed and is still illegal for all parties to consume even though there are still some conditions where some places for gambling exist but this is still something taboo.
Especially if it is used as an advertisement, it seems that this still does not exist and is unlikely to happen in my country.
For the problem of gambling advertisements on television, there should be some rules that must be set even if the government allows gambling but there must be restrictions where gambling advertisements must be at certain times so as not to be seen by children.

Gambling ads are often seen on TV channels. Banner ads of various gambling sites are seen especially in different cricket and football match like I saw ads of sportsbet.io some time on TV but it was banner ads on football League match. And if you talk about social media like Facebook, YouTube then I would say gambling sites use this platform the most for their advertisement. And the sites that have already earned a lot of revenue run ads on TV because running ads on TV is very costly.

Exactly, you will guide your child so that he does not go astray. We can't really avoid introducing gambling to them now because there are many influencers out there or others promoting it. Others can also be found in add-ons so please always be careful in your actions.

With guidance from their parents, we can direct them not to gamble. We have to be able to explain gambling clearly so that they don't get the wrong information. We can also set the device not to display advertisements that are not suitable for children so that these advertisements do not influence them. And don't let them use their devices for too long because that can make them lazy to do other things. If they are too busy with their devices, they will not care about their surroundings because they are more concerned with their devices and updates from their social media.

[Huppercase]

I think don't lie to them.
When they ask what it is, just give them an idea of ​​how harmful it is, especially to children.
Just tell the truth so they will understand when they grow up.

Because for me if you lie to them and they find out the truth they might learn it the wrong way and try it.
In today's time we can't avoid children knowing this, because there are many influencers out there promoting it even though they know many children are watching it. It's widespread now in our country that influencers promote any adds about gambling

Whether it's the truth or the wrong info, kids will want to try out when your are not around the house, it's better you ignore them and change the topic of discussion, kids are getting smatter day by day.

As far as today and civilization is concern, lying to your kids will do them more harm than good but I will pretend that I don't know about anything that has to do with sensitive content, will teach them about that when I think it's right. When your run from truth, that's the when they turn inquisitive of that and want to try that especially when gambling has advertisement of trying out service that are been air on those channels and I don't want to wake up and see my niece doing what I do at my adult age, no kids of mine yet. 

Personally, when I have or if I'm in such situations of gambling ads, I will change the channels for the sake of my kids doing what I may not know about, satellite TV stations have restricted way of muting some channels and password them. If I know that the kids will go to that level of watching that channels behind my back, I will lock it, we will not watch that again but I may but only if they are asleep or not around the house.

If you are from the developing country citizen,you will surely had come across the advertisement in the Television.The advertising in the television will affect the huge population including the children to the gambling game.Because all set of the age group was watching the television.So they get some curiosity in the practise of the game.But the old age people also start to gamble after the televising advertisement because the ad will trigger their feeling in the gambling from their young age memories.

There will always be a gambling ads. And the probability of kids getting exposed to these ads is very high. There is nothing a parent can do about the ads because it is out of their control but when it comes to the kids a responsible parent must not hide anything that he or she knows will be damaging to the kid's future away from the kid. You must be truthful about what the ad is about and what it entails. We know that gambling in itself is not bad but what is bad is when it is over done. These are the points that an intentional parents must emphasize to his or her kids when talking to them about gambling in the case that an ad pops up on television.

The number of kids that will give their attention to those ads is not very high, so most parents will be able to get away with it without doing anything.

I think a more important lesson is to teach kids from an early age about how the economy and money works, and if you add teaching them the value of money as well then most likely you will not have anything to worry about, as even if other kids were to expose them to gambling, they will simply not be very interested in it due to the lessons you have imparted to them.

I think it only applies in some countries or is allowed in some countries because in my country, TV channels are not allowed to advertise anything related to gambling, as we have what we call the "MTRCB," or "Movie and Television Review and Classification Board," which is in charge of reviewing anything that is shown on television. What you should also worry about is social media, because gambling advertisements are more prominent on that platform, and by clicking the link, your child could easily access the website, accidentally or not.

Yes, that's right, I've also seen gambling advertisements on TV as you mentioned above, even at that time I was watching with my children, and I immediately changed the TV channel so that my children wouldn't ask what was in the advertisement. . . , because it is not time for me to provide an understanding of gambling and its impacts.
However, if gambling advertisements appear on YouTube, for example, it is difficult to stop them because parental supervision can sometimes be missed and not optimal when children are playing on gadgets. This is very worrying especially for parents.

Although that's correct, but the OP is pointing out those ads you have seen in a sport channel.
I understand the local TV channels doesn't usually allow these kind of ads, but in most sports channel I guess they have this  kind of an immunity in airing gambling or casino ads. Well, of course it is understandable because it is not a kids channel in the first place, but I've heard there were also limits.
I've often heard that casino being broadcast as a form of ads in the NBA.
So, I guess it's hard for us to keep our child away from watching his favourite sport, especially that you have plans on making him an athlete soon. Best thing to do for now is to lie about it, they'll probably understand when they're on our shoes soon.

[bitzizzix]

And I agree that gambling advertising on television is prohibited, because television is the most common device and is often watched by all ages. Especially underage children because most of them watch television in their free time or on holidays.
So in my opinion it is not appropriate for them to watch, and if they often see gambling advertisements on television it will make them feel curious, and if they access or download because they are curious it will have a bad impact on them.
And I'm sure all parents love their children and will definitely oppose gambling advertisements on television, and that doesn't mean they think gambling is bad, but certainly for certain age groups. While this is the case in some countries, I'm sure some parents would be uncomfortable with gambling advertising on television because they don't want their children involved.

You are right because there are so many advertisements on social media now and gambling advertisements that anyone can see. Apart from that, the advertisement is made as attractive as possible to attract attention and many people will click and visit the link. Also now people, adults and children can access gambling sites easily and if they find it blocked by their country, they can look for other ways to continue visiting the gambling site. Children may not often see advertisements on television, but the ease of using the internet can enable them to visit gambling sites by chance.

While that eliminates a worry for the parents living in your country, there are simply too many avenues for kids to learn about gambling today, and as you mention it is way more likely that kids these days will find out about it when using their smartphones than when watching TV.

However unlike TV the internet cannot be regulated that easily, and with this in mind parents need to talk to their kids about this topic so they are prepared in the case some of their friends gamble and decide to invite them to the activity.

[JahriMeayer]

Gambling isn't that legal in my country. But still there are many international sport channels where authorities use to show us gambling adds and promote many websites even some banners at boundaries while watching those channels on TV cause gambling websites & authorities are sponsors of such sporting activities for their promotion. But honestly kids don't care about those, when i was kid I didn't notice such things. But if you found your kids asking you such thing then don't lie but explain & give them gambling education. Mentioned bad sides & aware them not to involve with gambling. Be responsible enough and check their activities.

Spending long hours on screen is not encouraged for both adults and kids. Eye straining blurs the views of kids, growing up. In the process, if not attended to the parents will have to spend money treating eye problems. Gambling ads will pop up for kids and not all would bother asking what it's about. They'll look it up on Google and when they discover it's a game, the child would want to participate. Parents are required to keep a close look at every online activity a child gets involved in. Neglecting a few observations on the kids exposes them to lots of dangerous ads that go beyond gambling. And can destroy the future of the child, due to the loads of fake information he'll be feeding himself. The ads we see on stadiums can't be regulated for kids. Both those watching on television and the kids in the stadium get to see the ads. If they insist on knowing it's quite an advantage to help that child understand the age requirement for gambling.

Just like in the case of beer, kids see those ads and don't bother about drinking it as it's obvious the drink is not for children. I deem it right for a child to be outspoken in asking such questions to his parents rather than Google. On the other hand, parents should build a strong relationship with their children such that they'll be able to ask questions directly to them. It'll reduce the rate of time they spend reading answers on blogs. Helping them focus on other real-life activities like spending time with fellow kids in their environment. Though the environment isn't safe too, we should keep up with our close relationship and ask calculative questions to the kids on the outcome of their daily activities. Other than watching football games a child wouldn't see too many gambling ads. They can only see gaming ads on cartoon channels and also develop an interest in playing video games until they get to the appropriate age of wondering about gambling or participating in the game.

[Kelward]

Gambling ads are not regulated in my country, you can see gambling sites ads on YouTube, social media and local TV channels. This is not good for the kids but there is nothing that people that have no say in the country can do about it and most people that wish gambling ads to be regulated fall into that category.

Tell your kids the truth. Let them know how gambling can dangerous, especially for kids but everyone though. Use life occurrences of people that gambling affected negatively as examples. Children do listen.

Gambling ads are not regulated in my country too, you'll see celebrities advertising different spots bets on tv, billboards and social media sites. As a matter of fact, the rate at which sports bet and lotto shops are springing up in every corners of the country is very alarming. You'll see the young and old trooping in to make bets, and these has become a norm that we're compelled to accept. Out if curiosity my young son was asking me what they sale in this shop that a lot of people enters and comes out from morning till night? It was a popular lotto shop annex, I had to tell him the truth of what people do in lotto shops and most importantly educated him on the harzards of gambling and addiction, after the lecture he promised me that he'll never enter a place like that. So in essence it's to educate our underaged children and dependants on the dangers of gambling ads that they see everytime.

Yeah I've seen many gambling advertisements on Tv and most of indian sport channels plays those advertisement during live Match so that more and more people can know about that gambling ads and visit that specific website/organizations. And of course this is bad for kids when they  turns into a decent age where you can't stopped for long by telling lies. But i haven't found any solution except you subscribe paid subscription for ads free channels. but there are many ways like some banners will still get highlighted at boundaries or many more. Team actually needs money for fulfill the expense of matches and they look healthy amount of money for those advertisement

First, you should refrain or stop on necroposting a particular thread specially if it's already that having no recent replies and this one has been already no response for 2 months+.So making out that some replies wont be that much recommended.
Going back about ads on tv then here in our country's cable provider which it's been that moderated if we do speak about gambling or betting ads. There might be one but it's only shown into those sports dedicated channels.

[lombok]

No direct television advertising. However, if we look at sports matches that are broadcast on TV, sponsors such as Stake.com, sportbet.io also often appear in the sponsor's logo.

Live gambling advertisements will never happen on television in my country. Because gambling is considered illegal. If you use YouTube or social media, lots of gambling advertisements appear.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I have seen a lot of casino advertising on TV but basically things can be done differently because they are different in view of a fiat money base and not crypto, I don't know if with casinos that are crypto based because things change, or at least in some countries they allow it, but until now I always see a lot of tc, but I don't see casino Advertising, I do see Casino ads at Football matches on billboards, Especially from sportstbet.io and casinos like that , but advertising that is done regarding casinos in Particular , such as one that I see a lot is from: casino.com, and I don't Remember the Name of the All casinos but those casinos are very famous and are very popular so that the oersons let them know through the advertisements, and based on this we are very emphatic in everything, for this we have to do everything possible so that we are but aware that I see in the Channels , that Obviously they are not of In my country but in other countries I have not even seen the great propaganda of a Crypto casino, and it strikes me that it is like this.

So if this happens, then things can be like that, in this sense we have to be very aware of what we are saying, and well, another one that I have seen is from Colombian channels where they basically show casinos that are local, now if we are looking for the way to look for more and better advertising because they should take the risk that things can be seen more intensely if it appears on all the ladies' TVs because there they can reach the eyes of the biggest casino gamblers, especially those who are watching football and any sport, in this case we have to be very emphatic, I have not seen so far things with casinos that have to do with Bitcoin, nor with cryptocurrencies, it would be excellent if they could apply this advertising and on the radio, it seems incredible because Even on radio and TV, including prey is the best.
