Can old generation cause the habit of gambling in young generation ?

[arhipova]

There are some old people in my family which are paying cricket fantasy games. They usually talk about the games and their performance is matches almost daily. It is obvious that if any younger guy in family will listen about this, he will also be eager to know more about this. How can I stop the younger generation in my family being carried away by this and focus on other important things like studies only ?

In order to properly manage younger need to create a suitable environment for them. And in this case those who are elderly members of the family should think about this matter. The younger always try to follow the older. When a family has a discussion about a topic almost most of the time, the kids will be encouraged to learn about that topic. I think if you can convince those members to point out the negative aspects of the discussion, then those people will definitely try to refrain from discussing the game. If they take precautions, it can stop its impact on the younger.

I am one of the younger guys here. How can I instruct older generation to avoid something ? If I oppose them, they term me as rebellious and tell me to shut up.

There are a lot of things that may induce interest of Gambling to a kid be the motivation be in your house or not. And not all gambling are the same. It's a good idea to restrict your kids from gambling as it's easily addictive. You can prevent them from gambling by limiting their financial reach and planning their schedule. Don't give them your cards and provide them pocket money just what they need.
As well kids should be taught about responsible gambling from early age be it on often overlooked fair games. Games played on fairs are where children start their first gambling. Sooner or later they would be introduced to gambling, it's better to develop them to make the best decision for themselves.

In addition, I think environmental factors have more influence on the personality of children - children, besides you have to limit financial reach, only give pocket money according to what is needed on the other hand you also have to really be able to look after the activities of your children, don't let you miss which is because you are negligent or don't pay too much attention to your child's activities and also on the other hand you will definitely be surprised when suddenly your child is involved with gambling even though it is still in the early stages.

On the other hand you will not be able to if you only provide understanding in theory, although it is quite good for their mindset but there must also be some actions that will be a driving force so that they really understand the dangers of gambling. Parents must really train their children so that they can have a disciplined and responsible personality, and also for your last statement, honestly I don't agree if they have to be taught about some games that have elements of gambling even though it's not real gambling, but still in my opinion it's better to teach them to do other more positive things only.

If the elderly behave in this way, it must be avoided. Instead of giving children a logical solution, they tell them to shut up and make the problem bigger without solving it. But there must be an elder person in the family who is responsible for managing the family. In that case I think if you can explain it to him or her then he can easily convince those members of their mistake and give them the right suggestion. But even if you understand the point, it is better for you to remain silent there as they will not pay any attention to your words. If gambling is openly discussed in the family, the younger ones will be encouraged, so there must be limits to those discussions.

That will possibly influence them because the moment a person listens, it also creates interest in them. And yes, they will do some research in order to widen their understanding and how the games are played. But it doesn't mean that those people (the younger generation) will fall into it as they also have their minds to decide if they want. Your take on this is to warn them and help them understand what could be possible outcomes if they were gambling. Gambling is a choice, not the thing that we force others to gamble.

Well, it will depend on the age or parents. If they are doing gambling games, then they have the responsibility to guide the young age to do gambling; if the young age has a habit of gambling, then it's the older age's fault that they got influenced; if they don't want the younger age or their son to do gambling, then at the start they should not let the child be interested or even have an idea about the gambling game or gambling things. And yes, mostly children or this generation, most of them got influenced by old age or by their parents or grandparents. But even without the influence of old age, the child could be influenced easily right now by many means of gambling, like social media platforms, by their friends, and many more.

What does the older generation teach or guide the younger generation about gambling which gambling is not a good thing. In my opinion, as bad as the older generation will not guide them into something that is not good, even they should prevent the younger generation from doing something that is not good or not good, because the older generation does not seem to want the younger generation to experience what they have experienced,  even if there is an older generation that guides or teaches gambling to the younger generation, in my opinion it is a mistake made by the older generation. Why is that? Because first, gambling is not a good thing. Where gambling can make someone worse than everything. Second, gambling can damage health, mentally, damage relationships. Third, gambling can lead them to things that are beyond reason, such as crimes that will harm others or other crimes.

You are right, even if they do not guide the younger generation to gamble, they can also be influenced by advertisements on the internet. And the older generation should provide supervision to the younger generation, even if they don't provide 24/7 supervision, they should give examples of the bad effects of gambling which is to prevent them from gambling when they see advertisements on the internet.,

Younger people learn things easily that why so many company say keep out the reach of children, if you are a soccerbet gambler for instance and you gamble with a printout papers make that those papers are kept where you children will not see them that's if you have children, this gambling of a thing can be dangerous to children, addiction is one of the problem we are facing in the society today, I think we should try as much as we can to help the upcoming, gambling is very difficult to control the habit, so many people got into one habit or the other because of the people that they grow in their custody, I have a friend that's a smoker, I aske him why are you into this he told me that his dad smokes a lot and that's where he got influenced, let's minds what we do in their front.

Totally indeed a choice on which it isnt something that you could be able to force someone to gamble because people will eventually leant it up if they are really that interested and not if they aren't.

When it comes to influencing youth then it could be possible because we know that whenever we are exposed into something and this is our first time on seeing it then curiosity would come into play.
Somewhat its true that whenever someone been exposed but still not an assured thing that they will be doing the same thing, it will matter on self will and decisions
because not all be seeing something will directly be engaging because there are who are sensible about on the things that whats happening around.

it is really just that there are ones who do easily get hooked just because it do involves money on which human beings are really that weak when it  comes to this.

If someone listens to a story from another person, he may be curious to know more, so he will start to find out about it. He will also find out about how to play the game and will likely find out how to bet on the game as well. It is normal for someone to be interested in something they don't know about, so they will try to find out. And that's what will happen if children hear stories about gambling from the adults around them. The children can find out on their cellphones so they can understand, and they will also see whether it makes them more interested or whether they will miss it. That's why if there are adults who want to talk about gambling, they need to find a place where there are no children so they can have more freedom in telling the story. This is to avoid children's curiosity so they will not find out about it.

The gambling was the game easily get into the bucket list of the younger generation,even if the old generation teach them.Because the marketing of the gambling will reach the younger generation easily who addictive to the social media now a days.If the old generation teaches the younger generation,they will teach the gambling fully.So the gambler will get to know about the greediness,which was the cancer to the gambling.The new generation gambler will avoid of the greedy in their gambling game,if they joined because of their friend referral,surely the friend teach them.But the teaching of the risk factor was not possible in friends refer.Some friends will teach you for their referral bonus from the gambling sites,So they won't say all the risk in the gambling sites.Get the comlete guide from your old generation people,who teaching you gambling.

Of course. Influence came from people who are good at something. We inherited if not all but most of the ideas from the past like gambling. Here in my country gambling was mostly influenced by foreign explorers, traders and invaders during the old days specially the Spanish and Chinese. It was passed from one generations to another generations.

Old generation can influence the younger persons perspective when it comes to things that they are not familiar with and is taking an interest into because of frequent exposure. Having kids or minors around when adults are talking about gambling can pose a significant impact over a child's developmental thinking about gambling. It can either persuade them and encourage them to try and see for themselves, or won't pique them at all. It's a case to case basis. But for me, it's still better to not involve kids into adult matter such as gambling. Kids below that aren't in their teenage years still do not have the capacity to grasp the pros and cons of gambling.

For me, the age that is better suitable to have gambling's pros and cons would be when they hit the puberty stage because at that age they become curious. It's better to educate them at home about the advantages and disadvantages rather than for them to know it from their peers which can't really provide in depth details that are needed for awareness. Kids and teenagers are both minors, but introducing it to a very young age will be a no-no for me. In encouraging minors to focus on their study instead, you must set a good example first and tell them about the benefits of finishing a degree and cons of getting addicted in gambling.

The culture of the environment in which a child grows remains in him. If people in your family are directly involved in gambling and it is continuous then it will definitely affect the next generation. Your family members are regularly discussing gambling directly in your family and the junior members of the family will grow up listening to those discussions or watching the activities of your senior family members. As the younger members of the family slowly learn to understand, they will talk about gambling and in doing so, they will also show an interest in gambling at some point. I gamble no one in my family knows because I don't want gambling to affect my family I am gambling I will gamble If any member of my family ever develops an interest in gambling it is a different matter.

You can trust your older siblings to advise the older generation to stop engaging in gambling activities, or you can trust siblings from your parents' family to discuss adult issues with them to limit gambling discussions so they don't influence the younger generation. But we can't blame the older generation for being temperamental and unable to control their emotions, they tend not to listen to other people's suggestions and they always underestimate the suggestions or thoughts of the younger generation.

It's true, it's like this in our family. Because our parents often gamble and sometimes they themselves fight over gambling and we see it, but I don't see anyone addicted to gambling or gambling just because they see their parents gambling, most of them are high school and college students. They are told that they cannot gamble because they are young and they know how dangerous gambling is.

Just say it properly and how bad it is for children, if they think about it they will understand it. This is what happened to us.

There's a grand rule in life - people will only listen to what they wanna listen to, the rest would definitely be merged up as garbage... So no matter how much effort you put in letting the young child know nothing about this, they'll definitely do worse if they want. Haven't you seen cases that the most protected children become notorious armed robbers and rogues?? What happens on the way?? Nobody knows!!!
but you've got great hopes - cus everyone won't chose the same path.. so if they aren't kept away, one of them might be committed to it.

The older generation are beclouded with the ideology that they know better since they are older and have passed through different life experiences that you being the younger generation that's only coming up haven't experienced or tested. There's this phrase that says: what an old man sees sitting down, a young man standing can not see it. I think this just a way to make the young feel inferior whenever they are with the elderly people and are having a debate or deliberation about an issue with variant opinions. They just want you the young to buy theirs as the best because they are old with the experiences you have had yet. As they say, the words of the elders are wisdom.

Addiction comes with irresponsible gambling so even if there's a gambler in your family member we can't be in this situation if we responsible enough to know our priorities. And also its lame reason for anyone to point out that they suffer from this because they have a lot of gamblers on their family since they are the one who can decide what to do and its just they didn't manage to control his actions and decisions done while gambling.

Gambling is really bad for children but if they are well guided and exposed about the risk for sure they would never be in this situation. Also we could tell the old people to minimize the discussion while there's a child around since this could lessen the exposure for young people to engage with gambling.

I agree with your opinion, that there are no genes or hereditary gamblers, but gambling is a habit of someone who has done it, whether for a long time or recently, and this behavior will make someone addicted because there may be two factors, namely hobby. as entertainment or at the same time making a profit so that you are addicted to continuing to do it.
Therefore, the older generation may have experienced what I said above, and this will trigger the younger generation to try gambling because they only saw or perhaps heard stories from the previous older generation.

there may be no hereditary gamblers, but if a person is continuously expose to gambling related activities, he may form a habit as well. but if they will see it on an occasional basis, like when your football or basketball team is playing, i don't think such young person will be a habitual gambler. they will more likely see it as a form of family entertainment or bonding activity among family members.
also, if a young person may see his older family got addicted in gambling, and got so much troubles, either he will follow the steps of that person or change his path not to have the same kind of life. this will depend on the person himself, it is by no means in the genes of the person to be a gambler.

Agree with you, that when someone gambles uncontrollably then this will become a habit for him and this behavior is not good for the future, but if he only sees gambling once or twice then it is not certain that the person will follow it because maybe he doesn't understand it yet. . or confused about how to gamble. If we look at sports betting, of course we will enjoy the thrill of the game, not only who will win, sports betting will also create closer relationships between family and friends and that is the positive side.

From the experience of the older generation in gambling, it will certainly be a lesson for the younger generation in making decisions, whether it is good or not to imitate and the younger generation must guard their minds well and always be introspective. so that you don't take the wrong steps and for the good of your life in the future.

It can cause but only affect to a certain extent.

If you a young person who lives in an environment of gamblers, then chances are that you are most likely to be influenced by their decision. You would be exposed to their actions as your curiosity would compel you to actually attempt/try the said act.

But even if a person is exposed in an environment of gamblers, there is still that chance that he/she would not gamble. Being exposed to gambling means knowing the risks involved- if the person wants to try and play the risks, then he/she would gamble. But if a person would want to avoid experiencing such kind of risks, then he/she would not even attempt to gamble.

At the end of the day, it really depends on one's decision over it. Personally, I would suggest that prevention is better than cure- stop exposing your kids into any form of gambling. If they are curious about it, then guide them and show the realities of gambling.

Yes, that's what really we worries they tend to follow the behavior of people around them or you could say those closest to them, such as (older siblings, cousins, parents). They can't yet filter what is good or bad so that children can do it independently keeping quiet, like smoking, maybe the parents don't know yet but the child is already outspoken in the surrounding environment and other people know about it and if it's like that, who is bad if not the parents who are thought to be lacking in educating the child.

parents/older generation must set a good example for the younger generation to develop and achieve their goals so that their future is bright. If they follow bad examples such as gambling, drinking alcohol in front of them, smoking casually in front of their children then their future will be bleak if they follow this behavior, but if given support or a positive example they will go on to a bright future.
