Is it proper for younger ones to gamble?

[Obari]

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.

I know it is normal that gambling as a teenager is an illegal act and I have seen in online gambling platforms and in physical gambling shops it is statec out that gambling is for people who are 18+ plus above but even with this rule some people who are below still go ahead to play gambling, and in physical gambling shops agents working their are aware that some of the people coming to play gambling are underage but they still collect money from them to allow them to play gambling.

The gambling law is not a strict one, even if they ate not in support of underage to play gambling by their own rules, some underage still go ahead to play gambling and nothing is being done. It is not right for underage to play gambling but when they are caught playing gambling their is nothing that will be done because the law is not a strict one.

I totally agree with you and I’m not familiar with underaged gambling in a physical store but rather This very act is very much common in online gambling and the fact that, there is a warning for people under the age of 18 not to gamble,that doesn’t mean they might be restricted as I think the warning was only advising under aged from gambling as there are a lot of complications and complexity in gambling which they might not be able to handle and I think there are some underaged who are matured emotionally matured way above their age.

In conclusion, I stand in the fact that, letting under aged gambling isn’t a good one and the government, as well as the gambling regulators also need to look into this.

I don't want to even read further. It's simply unacceptable. Their parents or their teachers, or both, should find a way to explain to the kids clearly that firstly they have slim chances of winning life-changing amounts and secondly even they win they will not be able to enjoy it without being educated people. The right way of going would be this: get the best education you can, find a proper job with good salary, and then entertain yourself with gambling however you like. But not the other way round.

[Strongkored]

So what do you guys think about this situation at hand now.

The betting shop is the party at fault because it does not prohibit the school child from gambling even though it is clear that they is still underage because still wear uniforms when gambling. It's just that you need to check the rules in your country on what the age limit is that is allowed to start gambling. If it turns out that the betting shop is breaking the rules then you should report it to authorities to take action.
Letting school children gamble is a stupid act because they might use the money for school fees because the funds they have are of course limited and not being old enough to gamble will make them unaware of the risks of gambling.

If the kids are taking gambling more seriously than their school then they have to check out the parents if they're guiding them properly.

If you know someone personally OP that they've got kids or the kids themselves are more focused to gambling than their studies, report it to the school administrator and to their parents.

With too much usage of the internet is also helping these kids to get more of gambling and that's why, proper guidance and limit of their usage is a must which is the duty of the parents.

I agree with you. Lack of parental supervision is also one of the major factor causing the increasing rate of bad habit and practice in teenagers. If the parents play there role with a strong hand of discipline I doubt this will be the case at least the fear in the children will limit the extend to which they incorporate such habit.

While, there are parents that does their duties. There are also kids that are hard headed and no matter what reminder and supervision they get from their parents, they don't obey them.

If those teen now take gambling as a source of income how then are they gonna live in the years coming.

Many of them are going to realize that if they're going to treat it as a source of income, they'll be having hard time in doing that.

That's why they need to study, gain a skill and work their asses so that they can earn money when they grow old and just gamble as a pastime.

Even though it is prohibited they will still play in online casinos, so in my opinion every betting shop may have a certain age limit for gambling there, in my country there are no betting shops like that because they are considered illegal, so I can't give much comment in this regard. This is the case, but talking about young people who play gambling, of course I also won't agree because our children could do the same thing, but it also depends on how parents educate their children. If they educate them properly, I'm sure they will stay away from gambling.

There are many types of gambling games that can be played by young people, so even though they are prohibited there, they will definitely play in online casinos or online gambling. I often see school children playing slot gambling around my house, but it seems their parents never know that their children gambling, that's what's wrong that every parent is responsible for their children, therefore if we see young people gambling and we see it, we actually don't have the right to forbid it because that won't stop them, unless the parents themselves advise it, that would be better, you can tell his parents about his son gambling at the betting shop.

you don't know if they are taking gambling seriously or not because you just saw them once and not everyday , you seems to be exaggerating on that part accusing them to focusing in gambling instead of going to school.there might be reason for that.

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.

its normal to care for others but life has more things to deal than giving a Sh*t into other problem , why not just do your bet
and go home? instead of  making those boys your problem?

I'm not making them my problem, why can't we see what's wrong and say it. We won't die if we speak the truth.

but since I don't know their parents but I know the owner of the betting shop, I think he'll still help out a little. If someone sees your kids gambling with their school uniforms on them. And they report to you, would you be happy?

[Ojinga]

I think this kind of scenario is alarming to see younger individuals prioritizing gambling over their education. School should be a time for learning and personal development, not for engaging in activities like gambling, they may be neglecting their responsibilities as students.

If these were my children, I would be deeply troubled to see them gambling instead of focusing on their studies and personal growth. We must guide and support younger individuals in making responsible choices and prioritizing their well-being and prospects over immediate gratification.

thanks for this, cause we the elderly ones seeing the younger ones going the wrong way it's bad. Even if I'm not their parents but I'm also considering cause they're kids trying to grow and thay aren't going the right at the moment. Thanks

underage people, for whatever reason, are not allowed to gamble, especially when they gamble in a gambling shop wearing their school clothes, the gambling shop should try to prohibit this and not allow them to gamble.  because at their age they should not gamble and be exposed to places like that.  i don't know why the owner of the gambling place allows children to gamble at their place, is he so mindless that he ignores morals and allows children to gamble at his place, and that's just quite sad.

Of course parents will provide good guidance to their children, it is impossible for parents to provide bad guidance, because that is not a good thing for their future. and with their activities outside the home and outside school, the surrounding environment can determine who they want to mix with. If they have the wrong social circle, maybe they can do bad things, such as getting to know and also doing gambling or other bad things, but even that depends on the children themselves, if they can differentiate between good things for him and bad things for him.

Herein lies the very important control. Parents become the most influential person in maintaining children's habits. If at home they are able to provide the best approach for children, then when children are outside the house are not fully affected by association.

Parents can only be able to at home, when children are outside the house, the child will be far from the reach of parents. At least with the approach that I mean is done well while at home, children will be able to think of what they do.
Still the child's habits have not changed, as parents have done their duties and the risk will be borne by themselves when he finished school.

In reality, parents won't be able to supervise or even guide their children all day long because they certainly have their own activities. but what you say is true, when parents succeed in educating their children in the home environment, I think they can control themselves, meaning they may be able to refuse invitations that are not good, such as by not being influenced by things that lead to bad things that could be detrimental to themselves, but they can't It is also hidden that children certainly have unstable characteristics and thoughts, so even if their parents' upbringing or their parents' approach is successful, there is still a possibility that the child could be influenced by the surrounding environment.

and when they finish school or graduate, they begin to be able to determine their own relationships, and this is where their parents' upbringing will determine them. If parents give them poor attention and upbringing, there is a possibility that they could be influenced by relationships that could be detrimental to them. Currently, many young people are already familiar with gambling even though they have just graduated from school, but that does not guarantee that they will be safe. Of course, the influence of the social environment around them can determine them themselves.

Just 2 students and you can make a conclusion that younger take gambling more seriously than their education?
That's just a small example if you ask me and it does not represent the actual fact about young people globally.

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.

The betting shop should have a regulation and they should not allow young students to enter and play.
In this case, there are some parties to be blamed:
1. The betting shop because of allowing young students to enter and gamble
2. The students because they should not do it ofc
3. The parents of the students because they do not monitor their children better.

I think your are talking about those third world countries, Am I right ? So there rules and law aren't properly implemented on the people or peoples of that countries don't follow their law of government. Under age gambling is never can be a good sign for a casino so stop them and take step against them who allow child on the bar. Or you may complain against them to your authority of country.

If a child is addicted to gambling at a young age, that child's life can never be good. So we should prevent young children from gambling and if we do not discipline our children properly, our children's lives will be affected.  We have to go through life through many hardships. We know that gambling is very bad and then we are busy for gambling. But if we can take gambling as a reward, it is good for us.

This isn't a good example to younger generation engaging themselves with gambling, but we can't blame them if they saw their parents also doing that kind of thing. The upbringing of their parents also reflects towards them, then it's basically what's happening to these younger ones.
Same at my local community young people got influenced from seeking lucky wins from ongline gambling apps that they easily got from playstore, ads is one of the reasons why they're attracted with.

If a child is addicted to gambling at a young age, that child's life can never be good.

I don’t consider this as a form of addiction but rather just a curiosity to explore gambling at young age. Addiction is different from being curious to try things until you make it a hobby.

So we should prevent young children from gambling and if we do not discipline our children properly, our children's lives will be affected. 

This is the tricky part. At age like the subject on OP which most of the bettors think of them as good to bet means there’s no way to control all of their movement especially on gambling since you can’t monitor them 100% when they are at school.

Limiting their money allowances is the best way to control this behavior because they can’t gamble if they have money to play.

Young people shouldn't touch betting because when they see a way to earn money with minimal effort, they will not focus study and socialize, but they will focus to spend all of their time just for gambling. They think if they have spend all of their time and effort for gambling, they will become a professional gambler and will high likely to earn. But, the reality most gamblers are in loss.

[zarintasnim]

I was deeply troubled when I witnessed two teenagers gambling while wearing their school uniforms. This unfortunate scene revealed the darker side of adolescent behavior and the risks that some young people take. Though they looked clean-cut and studious in their uniforms, these students were engaging in a forbidden activity that could endanger their futures.  Their eyes were locked intensely on the cards and money. I wondered if this was their first time dabbling in gambling or if they had already developed an unhealthy addiction. With the right community support, they should stop this and engage in wholesome activities, work hard in class, and build bright futures for themselves.

Well the idea is quite reasonable, finding a place that can give them money for nothing with little effort is a disease, if for example it is obtained because they have expertise or skills such as painting, editing or something else then maybe it will not be a problem, but if we talk about gambling then obviously it is best not to approach gambling at all, because putting hope in winning in gambling will only lead them to many disasters in their lives and we can see that there are already quite a lot of gamblers who have experienced downturns due to putting their hopes of "earning" in a place that has absolutely no certainty and any guarantee to always be able to get a win. But on the other hand, to be honest, it is very difficult to tell people who are tempted by something that looks tempting, especially if they are typical stubborn people who will be very difficult to advise.

I am never in favor that young people to gamble.The restriction in physical casinos should be clear,not allowed to gamble unless 21 of age because when you are young you don't have a clear idea or a clear vision of what to do in your life.When you are over 21 you are still young but you are a bit more grown up,more smart and now most likely your ideas are more clear also and that is why I am always in favor of such restriction.

for me the Accurate age should be from 18, cause by 18 we all know what's bad and good and knowledgeable at this age.

When we were high school students we were not allowed to enter the Internet Cafe while the class still going on no matter what suits we were wearing despite such restrictions, we still found a way to play because of our addictions. Put that in those kids' situation while they don't have anybody to prevent them from playing while they still wearing their uniforms, it's like a playground for them and nothing can change them with that kind of scenario and the worst part is, the next time you see them, they're not gonna be just two of them rather they bring a whole bunch of student who are gambling addict too hype their bad habits.
