Is it proper for younger ones to gamble?

[Hirose UK]

~snip~

It's worse than you think. Those kids are not gonna quit even if someone talks to them about the damage it's doing to them  since they were already exposed to it earlier. It'd be hard to break off such habit now if they're already doing it with their uniforms on? That's really wild. They now have their balls deep in gambling. Whatever you learn in your teen days, is gonna stick with you in life for sure. That's why I fear for those kids especially if they randomly win, the dopamine hit will push them to bet more.

If we talk logically then it is clear that it is no longer appropriate for children to carry out gambling activities, because if it is just small game that is played with their friends in school can be considered as their entertainment.
Just imagine that they are still school children and whether they deliberately don't go to school or after school going to betting shop is not normal thing for school children to do, I sure if their parents found out they would definitely be very angry.
What is really unfortunate about something like this is the bad impact that could happen to them, such as gambling addiction, losing direction in learning, losing excessive money and the potential for things that go beyond the limit to the loss of child future.
They gamble without any control or proper basis so that they can easily get all the bad effects, betting places should have an age limit for being able to enter.
But basically things like this are happening lot now, even where I live there are several similar incidents, it will be very difficult to suppress or prevent incidents like this.

Now, the idea of using gambling to teach... There are risks, right? We know it gets hard to stop doing. However, telling our kids there is no gambling will not help them. It's like those stock market games you play in business school. We could make a gambling version of it. Show them how it works and how the odds are against you. This will take the shine off of the whole thing

Kids skipping school to go to betting shops? There's more to that than just gambling. They want a thrill or an easy way to get money. Maybe they're bored at school or feel bad at home. Those things need to be fixed. If you make school fun or help them with their home lives, THEN they won't want to go to those shops as a way to escape

Everything will have risks and it is much better for them to play some games aimed at entertaining themselves rather than having to go to betting shop or play on gambling site, but providing this kind of understanding is not easy.
Social interactions and the careless use of digital tools without insight or education are one of the main factors why many young people are trying to get to know gambling, I sure we will find lots of groups of young people who gamble together.
Those who initially don't know anything hear and see other friends gambling, from here curiosity will arise which makes teenagers who previously didn't know anything about gambling try to find out more and try playing.

Feeling lazy about pursuing educational knowledge is the reason, I sure they still prioritize pleasure rather than fighting for the future and problems like this are actually the ones who can solve them are their parents and the people around them.
But I admit that the social relations of children now are very different from before, now many young people are going beyond the boundaries and going out of the right track, I think developments in the times are also influencing all of this.

Younger children should not gamble because of concerns that they will gamble excessively. But we will find it difficult to forbid them from gambling because their current relationships are difficult to control. Only guidance from their parents can help these children not to approach gambling.

After all, parental guidance really helps the development of their children. Their children will not try to approach gambling if they already know the effects of gambling on themselves and their lives. They will also try to limit their interactions with their friends, especially if their friends could have a negative effect later.

Parents must be aware of this to guide their children well. Nowadays, children's social interactions are freer than a few years ago, so parents have to be more active in supervising their children. With good and correct guidance, parents can hope that their children will not do something that could hurt their children.

but you know some parents are so much busy with work this days and most of them don't even know how their, children are coping with their school life's instead the children will come back home and eat relax and sleep till next day. So most of the parents are to blame on this situation and the children are easily to be corrupt while they mingle with the corrupt friends, so from there their life have started mostly when it comes to gambling lifestyle. You know the younger ones whatever they've gotten addicted to it's very difficult for them to end it, and starting from here and worse part is when their parents don't even know how their children are doing or their lifestyle is. So with this I do blame the younger ones parents cause they don't know how their children are doing at school.

Yes, I know parents nowadays are so busy that they can't properly pay attention to their children. They know that if they have given money to their children, that is enough for them so they no longer need to monitor them. Each parent must correct this so they can again supervise and approach their children properly.

Parents must be able to be someone close to their children. They have to learn more to keep up with their children's development. By continuing to learn and trying to approach their children, parents will begin to understand their children's desires.

By giving their children the understanding that gambling can ruin their lives, their children will realize this and will not try to gamble. They will also try to remind their friends not to gamble. They will also try to invite their friends who are already gambling to stop their gambling habit.

One of the saddest events in today's generation is raising their children like that, you will also notice that today's youth are focused on gadgets because that's what they do to entertain themselves when their parents are busy, which for me is wrong, because that way of watching over children has many negative side effects. when it comes to money, there is nothing wrong if parents give money to their children so that they can learn to manage their own expenses, but there should be a guide because it is possible to use the money in the wrong way.

[Zigabel]

it's improper for young person to gamble and it depends on the kind of young we are talking of because I know that anyone that is above 18 years is entitled to gamble so but if you are not in up to 18 years so younger ones that is supposed to gamble is the ones that is above 18 years and also have a small job they do to get money because if you don't have job that is giving you money is not good for you to be a gambler because gambling need money and then when you don't have money I don't think that you will carry on your gambling successfully

Most casinos have 18+ as their bench mark but then some people even younger than thst age actually gets to by pass the age restriction because usually there's no stringent verification model with which they do use to verify how true it is that you are 18+ or not so that has been the challenge with online casinos especially and the sad part has to be in the fact that some of these kids actually don't have a job or something else that's giving them money away from their parents or relatives gifting than which actually gets them to indulge in unhealthy habits when they eventually get bankrupt gambling.

Some gamblers who are even adults and doesn't have a source of income actually struggle to gamble and I'm sure it will even be worse with these little ones because they would not have the emotional balance enough to be able to really get to hand losses as the older ones would.

[Su-asa]

Because nowadays the younger ones take gambling more seriously then school. Yesterday i got back home early so I decided to step out and go to a betting shop to catch some fun while gambling, I saw two teenagers gambling with their school uniforms on them.

I asked someone besides me why did they allow this boy's to come in with their uniforms and gamble, he said did they put any restrictions that younger ones are not allowed to gamble. I said but it's not normal, I replied him what if this are your kids would you be happy seeing them gambling with their uniforms on them. So what do you guys think about this situation at hand now.

Yess you got that right but you been at the age of 18 you still won't be able to gamble if you don't have money and at the 18 I don't think that a well learned parents will ever allow their child to gamble even when the child is up to 18 years. Gambling needs someone's that's well developed on thinking, if you are not smart to calculate to make a better decision you will not end well as a gambler that's at the age of 18. However from getting very first day gamble started I don't think the person who gambled first in the whole world was just 18 years old, he is well mature and I don't think he end up bad from his personality. I think you should also make your own research to know more, we only say one at 18 years should gamble because we believes that they are matured.

[AnonBitCoiner]

Here not only younger but nobody is allowed to gamble because gambling is not a good idea to increase your wealth but still people are involved in gambling and they keep their situations Hidden from the government.

I think if a person from a young age starts gambling then he will never understand about its bad features as at a young age his mind  will not be fully prepared to differentiate between bad and right decisions. The government should work for such people who are involved in gambling as youngsters because they leave their study and gamble for such temporary satisfaction which turns into a negative career.

Teenagers are the key artisans of nation-building. And if these teenagers become addicted to gambling then it is a big threat to a country. Because one day these teenagers will rule the world. So it should not be gambling when a student or minor teenagers go to play, they should not be allowed to gamble in any way.

I also think that a big billboard should be made at the gambling board. Where written, "No minor shall participate in gambling and no person shall be forced to participate in the game."

Allowing minors to participate in gambling means bringing misfortune to them as well as destroying the backbone of a country. If I saw my child gambling I would suffer a lot.

Every country should make different play equipment or play equipment for the entertainment of minor children or teenagers so that they are happy physically and mentally.

I said but it's not normal, I replied him what if this are your kids would you be happy seeing them gambling with their uniforms on them.

Ignorance can really get the best of people sometimes.

I am very sure even without knowing the locality of which you would be speaking of that their are restrictions on minors gambling. Be it offline or online. This would be very visible on the gambling billboard where ever it is situated and it’s put in terms of its age rating which is often, not for people under the age of 18. That’s the most popular age grade to determine who should be and who shouldn’t be gambling.

If that isn’t in place and you hope to know what’s the allowed age grade to gamble in that betting platform, do well to attempt a registration on the site and read it’s terms and condition. You would see the approved gambling age grade.

Furthermore, it’s outrightly wrong for any school child to go to certain places on their school uniforms. A school uniform reflects not just the person but the image of the school and the school ought to take drastic actions on this if notified. It’s wrong and shouldn’t be allowed to continue.

[Blitzboy]

answer: definitely not. Minors have nothing to do in such places, and their parents should more carefully control what their children do and with their money. And there is a problem that children will start looking for money for new rates and skip school. If I were you, I would leave a complaint to the manager so that he would be more attentive who comes into the establishment.

Basically, gambling is something that has a lot of negative viewpoints, therefore minors should not be familiar with gambling and not engage in gambling, even though nowadays they can get to know online gambling with the development of increasingly sophisticated technology which can make it easy for them to get to know it. or knowing many things just by using a cell phone, but of course we have to be able to prevent this by providing good education so that they can avoid bad things, actually gambling itself is not bad if we can do it right. Unfortunately, the fear is that they will become addicted to gambling.
Parents definitely have to be careful when their children enter high school, because then they will choose their own social relationships, and if they socialize with the wrong people, they might be exposed to gambling even though they are not old enough. However, it is also impossible to supervise children all day long because parents also have their own activities, so even though parents have given them the right education, once they enter high school, the rest of the choice is up to them to decide what to do well. or bad.

Without a doubt, technology has expanded our kids' world. There are drawbacks, especially with internet gaming. Kids should learn about money and wise decision-making early on. That includes teaching gambling, its risks, and why responsibility is important. Instead of saying "dont do it," we must explain why.

Things change as kids become older. They desire more independence, which is OK. Learn to make your own decisions. As parents, we must believe that we raised children well. We gave them the tools to succeed; now they must use them. Controlling everything isnt the goal. It gives kids the confidence to face obstacles in the world. Gambling can be part of that environment, but if youngsters understand and act appropriately, it need not be an issue.

    -   Of course, it's not very good that you see a student who enters a gambling hall and then, still in uniform, just hangs out somewhere to play gambling. That's the only thing that's not good, especially if it's under age.

Because gambling can be a reason for not going to school because they will think of gambling with the money that their parents gave them that worked hard for their education, then you will know that they just went to gambling and didn't go to school. That is painful on the part of the parents, of course.

[Docnaster]

There's no doubt to the fact that technology have significantly affected activities of the current world society when compared to what was happening three decades before now. Kids these days now do have access to Internet and when they're not monitored, they end up engaging in unholy dealings on the internet even when they don't know the effect of what they're doing. But as adults, it's our duty to make sure that kids around us are seriously monitored whenever they're with any smart device that can expose them to the Internet. Gambling is rated 18 for so many reasons and one if those reasons is that it's only legally and morally wise for only adults to engage in gambling so they can make whatever decisions they want to make knowing fully well of the consequences. It's absolutely not proper to allow kids engage in gambling.

[Lidger]

There are some casino sites that instruct you to stay away from the casino site if you are under the age of 18 before signing up for an account with the casino site. I think most of the gamblers who gamble in these online casinos should be 18 plus because gamblers below 18 will gamble but can never make the right decision in gambling and their emotions are more important in their decision making. If a gambler gives priority to his emotions rather than reality in gambling, he will lose by gambling. Gambling should be done at an age when the gambler has the capacity to make sound decisions. So I would say minimum age limit for a gambler to play gambling should be 18.

Yep, at first glance it looks uneducated if we see a student who is still underage involved in betting at a betting shop, they should only focus on lessons and assignments given at school and not instead of gambling even if they only take a little time to gamble, because after all it can damage the mindset of a child who should be filled with various positive lessons. Basically, it doesn't matter even if for example they enter a betting shop without wearing a school uniform, it is still an action that should be avoided by a child who is still underage.

But on the other hand, it is really difficult to advise a minor and I think this is a matter that must be resolved by the guards at the betting shop where they must prohibit a minor from entering the shop, and also this is the responsibility of the parents who must be more strict in guarding and monitoring the activities of a child, if you are not too busy then I think it is better to take your child to and from school, and you also need to monitor them when they are at home, make sure they don't return to the betting shop in any way.

It seems to me that the existing age restrictions in the gambling industry do not always effectively prevent teenagers from accessing casinos. After all, it is quite easy to register on the site by providing fake documents or data. KYC  procedure, of course, should help in the fight against such attempts, but it does not always work flawlessly.
Teenagers seeking to try their luck at gambling can circumvent these restrictions, which is a serious problem. It is necessary to strengthen the control and verification of the identity of players in order to ensure the safety and compliance with legislation in the field of gambling.

[bitgolden]

There is a reason why there are laws regarding underage kids and what they can and can't do, like drinking, smoking, driving and this includes gambling as well. When you are too young for something, there is really nothing you should be considering as the way out, because that will not be all that easy to handle neither.

I personally believe that we are going to end up with something that will take some time, and we shouldn't really consider that changing all that easily neither. I believe that as long as we keep that going, like have trust in our youth and laws, then they should not be gambling at all. I know that is not simple for everyone to understand because some kids will think they are mature enough, but we can't individualize laws.

In most countries, there is always an age restriction. In my country, if you are under 18 years old, you are not allowed to gamble, so if you are 18 or older, they believe you can make decisions on your own. It doesn’t really make sense for students to leave their school just to go and gamble, or even head directly to the casino house after closing, it doesn’t make any sense. If I am the agent at the casino house, I will never allow them to gamble. If those boys that you saw are underage, then they are not supposed to be allowed to gamble, they can just report them to the school authority. I am sure the school will be able to get in touch with their parents.

Ask yourself that question again, and then come back here and tell us with a straight face if you think allowing kids to gamble should even be a debate.

one of the dumbest things I've seen in this forum not gonna lie. You know deep in your mind (unless you're a solitary troglodyte with no experience with social ethics and cues) that kids should never be at an arms reach within anything affiliated to gambling, and then you go out here and ask us if kids should be allowed to gamble lol. You know from the get-go that something's wrong. The kids are literally in their school uniforms gambling for pennies, that's not enough to worry the shit out of you, enough to make you formulate a logical decision? You must be some hot piece of work lol.

In any case, you know the answer yourself, no need for posts like these, could've been great if you shared it in itself without giving us this type of question thinking we'd be shocked and be introspective about it lol. Think, analyze, and moralize, that way you don't have to ask people for directions cause your logic's compass is fucking crooked.

[nara1892]

Actually anyone can gamble regardless of age as long as they understand gambling and have the ability to control themselves, I will not make minors the main point of discussion, because I see that there are still quite a lot of adults who treat gambling without being based on maturity in terms of decision making and it is not uncommon for me to see adults who are unable to make rational decisions, and I am not uncommon to also see adults who are unable to control themselves, especially when they lose, and can they not be equated with small children who still have unstable personalities? of course.

This means that in gambling we cannot say that adults will always be able to treat their gambling activities well, it is nothing more than a possibility and not a certainty. But if you are asking whether or not underage young people can gamble, then overall with the high level of instability that an underage child has then I would also say "no".

No matter how much gambling is legalized, gambling must have a specific set of rules and regulations to follow. A gambler must have an age limit to participate in gambling events. A gambling and casino policy states that no boys or girls under the age of 18 may participate in gambling. College students cannot participate in gambling because a student can never build an academic career by participating in gambling and casinos along with studies. However, in a country where gambling is legal, it must be accepted that the law has been enacted in the case of gamblers. If a country has allowed children under 18 years of age or school and college students to participate in gambling, it is a different matter.

[Ojinga]

That'd why the government put laws on gambling and kept it for adults, so it's not okay, yeah some countries might have other laws against gambling but I don't think exposing children to such addictive habit is okay for them and it could destroy their lives if they are not careful.

government knows the reason why then make a law that children should not participate in gambling when they have not gotten to a particular age because when you look towards that you sense a lot because if children participate there will be stealing their parents money including people living around their environment when they don't have money to gamble they will find all miss to make sure that they have gotten money to Gamble so that is why it is not good for children to know how to gamble at area stage without being up to adult age

you're right on that, but the government you're talking about doesn't even know if the younger ones are participating in gambling. Cause one thing is that don't put any restrictions for the younger ones, the people to blame about this is the online casino betting sites they should put a restriction for the younger ones now, as those betting shops should also put a restriction in their shops as well cause the government i don't think they do have the time so far over that. So we are the ones to help ourselves over this situation at hand cause if the younger ones take this step it won't be nice for them.
