Increased Gambling Risk for the Younger Generation

[Juse14]

Not only the younger generation, many underage children are also involved in the world of gambling. because in modern times like this, minors are provided with onsel by their parents. And this is a quite worrying situation, apart from not having good self-control, they also have no income and still depend on their parents to meet their living needs. And because he doesn't have good self-control, he will easily get caught up in the world of gambling and become addicted. So it is very worrying if the desire to gamble is not fulfilled, this can cause children to behave badly, such as lying to their parents or selling goods at home without their family's knowledge. This is not just empty talk, but this actually happened.

And of course, to anticipate and minimize this, education needs to be intensified regarding the negative impacts of gambling, both at school and at home.

I agree the risk for the young generation is there and it's significantly higher than it used to be, due to accessibility and online gambling becoming a part of computer games, the way it's a part of counterstrike. Children might unknowingly become gamblers through these games, and then proceed to look for more risky games, where they can spend more money.

The most effective way to address this issue is for the parents and teachers to play their part and convince the young generation the do and don't of gambling and how it can harm our personality and life if we are addicted to it.

Instead of putting all the weight on the shoulders of teachers and parents, why don't you think of some ways in which you can contribute. You advertise casinos, just like me and many other people here, but you want parents and teachers to discourage people from gambling. I'd assume that you aren't one of these two occupations.

With the easy accessibility of the online gambling sites and tools, the younger generation is more involved in gambling. The risk for them is not only that they will lose money but gambling at such a high rate and at the age of teenage will cause them a lot of problems like lack of physical activity or no interest in the studies as they will more inclined to get easy entertainment in the form of gambling.

As long as children have access to mobile phone with internet connection, it becomes a huge task to monitor them on what to do with the phone. It will really be difficult to stop them because children are smarter and more curious now. The best is to start early in advising and teaching them how to be more responsible individuals.  We should watch the kind of freedom and lifestyle we expose our children to with respect to their age. We should convince them with love on why they have to not do certain things in their age, this way they know you mean well for them.

Most importantly, we should be responsible parents so that children can learn from us because they learn more from what they see their parents do than what they say. This is why we must keep our gambling confidential to protect our children.

Technology brings a lot of new problems that our parents and grandparents did not face. On the other hand, they had their own problems, like communism, war, poverty, lack of technology, medicine, medical equipment.

I agree that we have to control what our kids do because they're going to be able to gamble at night in their rooms, using a small phone hidden under the pillow. You won't even know. This phone gives them access to online markets, porn, brutal movies and gambling.

It's not like gambling is the biggest problem of them all. I'd rather have my child gamble from time to time with the money that he or she earns, than have them buy drugs or alcohol. All addictions are bad, but some can be much worse.

Its does really have its benefits which it would really be just that typical or normal since advancement and new inventions and discoveries does bring out that great convenience and accessibility
on human lives on which this is something that we should really be thankful because it did really make our lives way more easier and convenient but we do know that in all of those benefits
and utility on which there would really be those cons too on which it  could really affect out younger generation on which it would really be just that normal that you would
really be trying out your best as a parent to guide them in the most better ways of living and trying out to avoid on things which might disrupt their growth
specially with gambling. So as a parent then it would really be just that part of parenting and your responsibility.

If the younger generation is involved in gambling, they can lose control of themselves because, at a young age, they are vulnerable to becoming emotional, and ultimately, they will be triggered to use more of their money. The younger generation needs to realize that they don't need to gamble, and with the guidance of adults around them, they can give them the understanding to stay away from gambling. They don't need to seek pleasure from gambling games if they know there are bad impacts behind gambling. They can use other activities to get pleasure so that they will not experience gambling addiction like other young generations. This is where parents and teachers must continue to guide these teenagers so they will not try to gamble.

That's always what this whole innovation and renaissance has been about... Well, am i gonna say they knew too well the negative effects that it'd cost them and they still went ahead with it?; Cus why shouldn't they have Known?... The increase in life-threatening cases all year round has blurred the whole purpose of the adoption of casinos on the web and I dunno if they, (the governs) are Willing to impede the whole process?.
all the same, technology wasn't supposed to be put back because of whatever vises it'd cause in the near future.. I believe they'd be a chance of plan and course.

Gambling risks are rising for young people

Well i guess you technically can talk about younger generation when only example is 25 years old, but that's definitely a grownup who is fully aware of their own decisions. They might lack life experience, but they should have enough understanding of what they are doing to be liable. But sure, gambling is rather easily available so people do it more, just like anything else that's easily available. I am not so sure it's just a bad thing. Also people can more easily moderate their gambling when they can take breaks and gamble when ever they choose. Back in time when you could play only in casinos, i think people over did it and played as long as possible.

And imho instead of teaching dangers of gambling, kids would be betteroff being educated about biases and probability, because lack of those it what creates the basis for people thinking that they get a magic ticket for financial freedom, and that gambling might be their only way to do that. While they miss the point of having fun past time while being responsible young adults.

[Dewi Aries]

It's a really concerning situation when gambling is getting more and more popular and rampant and it's obvious that it's the young people or the younger generation that will play the role of potential players, players along with being victims in the end, after all gambling is an activity that has great risks and should not be taken seriously, otherwise it's clear as the OP said that this will involve many other problems coming up and one of the most dangerous is when young people are no longer interested in doing other activities such as school or work for their own interests and only want to win from their gambling dedication. On the other hand parents or teachers do have quite an influential role in this or maybe some other close people, but I think it would be easier to overcome this if the government gets involved by implementing any policy that aims to limit them, because what is worried and what is guaranteed is that the future of young people will be destroyed because of this problem.

There certainly is a propensity for the younger generation to fall for cheap tricks and the allure of earning a lot of money without doing anything, especially now that they are practically tied to their gadgets and the internet. I say the lack of care and vigilance among parents' are also a big contributor to why a lot of kids are lead to bad influences. From gambling to crimes. Gambling is just as popular as it was back then. I don't think there's been a paradigm shift in relevance, notice, or outlook among people as many still see gambling as either exploitative or as a means to earn money (which should not be the way to perceive gambling mind you) but oh well. As a kid, it's your responsibility to make sure that your life choices lead you to better days as well, you can't just blame everything to your upbringing or how mom and dad doesn't notice you that much so you'd just invest your time and effort into gambling instead of bettering your life.

The younger generations are the ones that gamble most, and they are still the ones that are addicted to gambling, because the rate at which young generations are looking for money is really alarming. They are ready to go to any length just to make money, so since they already know that they can make money from gambling, they will keep on gambling even when they are losing massively. They are always having the hope that if they keep on gambling, they will end up hitting jackpot, so some of them will do crazy things just to make money so that they will be able to gamble.
 
 
Seriously, there are lots of things that gambling can cause to the younger generations. When they are addicted to gambling and have no money left to gamble with, they might end up terrorising the society in which they live. Some might end up stealing or doing illegal things that will affect them.

The way our young generation is wasting their time in online casinos and gambling sites is greatly affecting the career and education of the young generation. It is guaranteed that all these addicted young generation will not be able to contribute anything of value to the nation and the country in the future. This young generation must be freed from this terrible curse or the nation will plunge into a dark future.

The younger generation who had take part in the gambling should play the responsible gambling game in the real life.Because the gamblers who playing the gambling is based on their own real money.Some of the younger generation from some of the religions backgrounds will not take part in gambling because of their own religious beliefs.But some of the gamblers who was playing the gambling from their younger ages will do the gambling for their own sake of entertainment.But the gamblers who had wide knowledge about the gambling will not get to play gambling often without knowing what they actually addicted to gambling themselves.

let them experience what gambling has to offer in life. we can't dictate how they go on with their respective lives. in time, they will understand what's the real deal in this activity. experience will teach them lessons in life that they can bring throughout their lifetime. so there's no worry if you know a youngster exploring the world of gambling. they have their own time to mature and see life on a different perspective.

but of course, as much as possible, parental guidance is always recommended as it can influence to how the youngster will go on with his life. if they have good upbringing and something good instilled in them, the parents don't need to worry as these kids can manage on their own. parents can't be present 24/7, so such possibility of exploring on their own is always there.

We have lost many potential future generations who could be expected to lead the country in the future, I feel worried about the condition of the future leadership of the young generation who are currently addicted to gambling and we have no role in limiting gambling for anyone because access to online casino gambling at any time and everywhere, many members of the younger generation are already addicted to gambling. We have seen many cases of corruption in government circles due to the impact of gambling addiction and we do not want to experience the same cases in the future leadership elections of the younger generation.

Yes, that's right, online gambling is growing, which is the leading reason why younger generations can easily access gambling. The widespread presence of advertisements, betting websites, and online gambling is making the online environment toxic, posing many risks for the young generation to be lured into gambling. Children really do not fully understand the severe harm of gambling. As you said, if families, schools, and the government do not strictly manage it, the young generation will plunge the country into darkness because the young generation will be the backbone of the country in the future. Families with young children should proactively manage this issue well. Don't let things go too far before finding a solution. Gambling can quickly become addictive, especially with the naive minds of the younger generation.

I think I just tackled this on the other thread but it doesn't focus on the younger generation though so this is good that we talk about it.

Kids. I always want to try to leave them alone and learn what they can. But there must be a limit. If ever they will bump into gambling, porn, and other 21+ stuff then I must intervene because  I want to keep them innocent for as long as possible until they can understand everything completely.
This generation, kids are too aggressive about everything and they think they have the right to freedom for anything they do because that's what has been said on social media by other people. It's wrong. When I was a kid there's no such thing as freedom. When we are still leaning with our parents then we must obey everything they say. If not, then we can go our separate ways and live on our own. Too many spoiled brats in this era and they think they own this world.
Gambling has been a problem for generations, we must be more aware now of how we will introduce it to our kids because there are always chances of addiction.

Sometimes I am also thinking that we are over reacting on those risk but we forgot something that gambling is somehow fun to participate. That's why we are here now we enjoy it that's why we gamble. Its just we really need to guide our children so that they would know how to deal something on those gambling site and also how they approach on those people mislead them towards those site they are trying to promote them.

Once they are aware of everything by our guidance and also we are available to answer all the question they would ask for sure all those risk is nothing then our child would understand that nothing is easy on gambling. Then for sure with that they would have nice approach toward the games they encounter or catch their interest to play.

The internet has made it such that you don't have to go to a land casino before you will be able to access a gambling facility but before now you may have to visit a land casino and be of the required age els you will not be permitted but now people who are much younger fill up false details so as to get access to the online casinos and get on the platform.

Teachers and parents talking to them will not be just enough because some may later go as far as trying it out in the closet where no one sees them especially the very curious Ones who gets too inquisitive about any thing new they get to know about so I think restrictions I best, restrict them from using gadget that are not PG regulated, so they have less access to +18 sites but if they are using regular gadget then it will be more difficult because talking and scolding alone wouldn't help and you can't be with them all the time.

It is not secret Internet, communication and electronics have paved the way for more accessibility to services and goods, gambling one of them.
To me it is rather responsability of the parents to correctly watch over the activity of their teenage children on the internet.
Keeping children and teens off online Casinos are one of the uses of KYC policies which I openly support, to be honest.

The neglect of parents or the lack of parenting skills is the real problem, the root problem of teens getting into gambling instead of doing what they are supposed to and go to school or have a summer job.
Obviously, besides of factors, casinos are not supposed to target teens and children with their advertisement campaigns, I have not seen some relevant casino doing so, though, video companies seem to do it, through the implementation of loot boxes and other elements which resemble gambling.
