Is gambling bad to the society?

[nullama]

~snip~
It's up to us. If a person is irresponsible, they don't even need to gamble to make shit happen. Once upon a time on the internet I came across an example that perfectly demonstrates that the shit we do is ourselves. We all have kitchen knives at home, and every day in the world people die from kitchen knives, but that's no reason for everyone not to use knives for their intended purpose. Same goes for gambling.

Yeah, I guess you are right.

At the end of the day it is personal responsibility.

If someone is not up to the standard, then that's on them I guess...

Gambling has become bad in society because many people experience huge losses from gambling because they cannot control their emotions and make gambling a source of income. I can't deny that many of my friends in poor districts are addicted to gambling and they become lazy about working and just hope they can turn their daily money from a few dollars into hundreds and even thousands of dollars. This is completely different from some rich people who gamble just for fun. Or someone who can set a budget for their gambling. So in my opinion this is a situational condition but in my circle people experience losses due to gambling.

[Dailyscript]

In my opinion you make hasty conclusions about gambling and gamblers. After all, there are enough educated and responsible people in the world who play gambling not to get rich, but to have fun. If someone does not know how to control himself during gambling is not a reason to say that gambling is bad. In fact, it is bad when a person has no understanding that gambling is entertainment, not easy money and insufficient education to analyze their actions and draw conclusions.

He sounds like because people are addicted to alcohol, alcohol is really bad to the society, there people that drink and do it moderately and there people that do it until they get intoxicated, gambling isn't different from the way alcohol is addicted to people. Anyone can quit alcohol because he thinks it will affect him, the same can go for gambling, it's all about control because you can't say having solo time in gambling is bad, if it's there wouldn't be gambling today because it will be completely ban.

By the way, what's is bad to you might be good to another person but I think government regulates gambling and they all get paid from the revenue generate from you and casino, no matter how much casino pay the government, if it's bad for the society they wouldn't license a single casino and other gambling platforms to offer service for the people.

Thank you for giving clarification there. Addiction to alcohol is the same thing to addiction in gambling. Many people feel it is different when they know that it cause them to make bad decisions in life and poor management of finances. When someone is addicted to alcohol he spend money on buying drinks without thinking to know when to stop. They rather buy for people around them, trying to show off and this is because of the intoxication from the alcohol. And this same thing happens in gambling, an addicted gambler continues gambling not minding whether he is losing or wining.

They are the same but they have different negativities and positivities. If you are an addict to alcohol it's more worst than addicted gambler. If you are drunk, you misbehave because you aren't on your right senses, but if you are a gamble addict your level of misbehaving have limits. People who are addicted only chase their losses and it makes them lose more. Alcoholic makes people takes do things without their right senses. The reason why gamblers are addicted is because they want to recover their loses and they end up at the wrong way because they are addicted and didn't recover they lose.

[Smartvirus]

Secondly what are the social problem caused by gambling?
(1) Depression and suicide
(2) bankruptcy, family-break up
(3) domestic abuse
(4) assault, fraud
(5) theft, and even homeless
Addiction to gambling is link to a range of serious personal and social harm such as those things I mentioned.

People who gambles can be at risk of this following categories of harm.
(1) Financial harms
(2) Erosion of savings
(3) Filling for bankruptcy
(4) Relationship conflicts
(5) Neglect of relationship with significant other
(6) Neglect of relationship with children
(7) Extend family and friends
( Social isolation
(9) Emotional or psychological distress

So I don't really blame the people who sees gambling as a bad thing to the society, meanwhile If the younger ones take of the steps of being addicted don't you think they'll experience all this as well.

If we are to consider all these to be as a result of gambling, we might as well look towards alcoholism to have similar effects too. Yet, these are not being looked at in the same light. Yet you wouldn’t find these being looked at the same way. The problem isn’t gambling itself, it’s the abuse: so it is with drugs: aren’t you surprised that the normal pharmaceuticals is what is still abused today. Should these be cast away because, it’s been abused?

Once you’re addicted, then you’re in for a real trouble and that  isn’t the problem of the casino or bookie. It’s just you, not having that control about your gambling habit. It’s that simple. The gambling industry is a taxed one and one that has helped some forks too.

[LUCKMCFLY]

It must be made plain that gambling is not a solution or a fast route to wealth. Pure and straightforward entertainment is what it is. And you have to appreciate it in moderation, much as any other kind of entertainment. Never forget, folks: be intelligent, disciplined, and most importantly, be in control. Dont let gambling control you.

It is difficult sometimes to get that control, I think the easiest way is through discipline, but it is something that costs a lot, because you have to be there in the game playing and feeling the emotion, the adrenaline, what you have risked and you do not want to lose and you hold on to it, sometimes it is difficult to control that, but one of the best ways is to control the money and that before playing, but that is something that very few apply, first because they find it boring and second because they believe that they do not need it, even if we are very sure we should do it, it is the smartest way to do well our activity in the casino or in a sports bet.

The worst is that people is taking gambling as a source of income and gambling is not a trust worthy something and that's why you don't need to trust gambling, but if you fail to understand that gambling is a something that has to do with opportunity you will be depressed when you continously to lose gambling, I don't mind to lose in gambling as many time, because I know that one of the elements of gambling is that you most experienced loss provided you are a serious gambler, I have not see anything bad for someone to just a gambler, when it's bad is when you don't have the understanding that you neither lose in gambling or you gain.

This has become a disease that is widespread in society, indeed there are many people who think they can make money by gambling for sure, but thinking like that only makes them addicted because it is possible that they are not willing when the money they bet on is lost and when that happens they become wants to return to gambling to recover his losses. It's true what you say, we shouldn't believe in gambling or have full hope in gambling because that's not true, wrong initial thoughts about gambling will lead us to addiction or something worse. there is a possibility that depression will occur, especially if we are not willing to lose the money we bet and continue to gamble then depression will most likely occur.
Indeed, losing or losing money at gambling is something that definitely happens more often, and here we must be able to understand that defeat and losing at gambling is something that is bound to happen and we must be able to respond to it well by not thinking too hard about the money lost at gambling. If you have bet on it, you will have luck, but don't expect it completely, because sometimes it can kill us in the future.

That's right, gamblers do not need to rely on gambling or betting, because this is the biggest mistake. The main point of playing in a casino or a card or a bet is only an evening, but in no case is it a business. The business is boring but stable and complex, and those who think they are well versed in betting are very much mistaken. And they don't look like businessmen at all. Gambling is a dangerous phenomenon that undoubtedly relieves stress well. But if you don't know the measure, you can get very big mental and financial problems.
Therefore, gamblers should not rely on gambling in terms of earnings. All the winnings there are just luck, and luck is very changeable.

Personally, what we think or do probably gets to us while in any journey. Especially when it's gambling, where people still have to bypass numerous traumatic procedure when losing so much in the game. Which happens as a result of what they've not been expecting in the game. Most gamblers posses false expectations, that's why they hardly not get followed with nice return in all ramifications.

Both financial and mental stability, gamblers who think they'll always win in gambling, lose it, and cause harm to the society. Which is not a new occurrence. We hear and see it happen at every corner of the world. The mindset which the players set out is what affects them on the long run. Generally, the society is being affected somehow by gambling. Although the generated money via gambling also helps the economy of some society, yet it doesn't equate the emotional trauma it places on the player.

[Pandu Geddon]

But if you don't know the measure, you can get very big mental and financial problems.

that's the mistake many gamblers make. they gamble not according to their abilities. spend all their work income on betting. they forget that they need money to meet their living needs.

The impact of such gambler behavior is enormous and far-reaching. Not only will it affect the mental and financial aspects of the gambler himself, but it will also Therefore, many people who actually don't like gambling definitely stay away from or even criticize bad gamblers.

We need to be wiser about our gambling activities. I choose not to share my gambling with anyone, except for the people closest to me who can provide input for my control.

[ethereumhunter]

Or opposite might happen. Children might see other gamble, and never get interest in such activity. You can never know what will happen. And you should not make future plans built on "might get" factor. We see alcohol ads on the billboards, TV, parents drink alcohol on every party or event. I havent noticed that every kid is an alcoholic now.

Again people fantasize that childrens dream is to find out that adults gamble, watch they do it and become addicted. Cant wait when adults stop seeing children addiction in every action children see. Why people are not against toys manufacturers, that create gun toys? From your logic, when a kid see an action movie and plays with his guns, he will become a serial killer. Why do kids play with toy soldiers then? That is army. Army = guns = killing = addicted to violence/killing.

It's good if those kids never gets interested with gambling so their parents will not have a problem with their children while they playing gambling in front of them. We don't knows what things that makes our children interested with but if we can close to them and talks to them about many things, they will tells what's in their minds so we can guide them to the good ways.

Children have their own minds that adult people doesn't knows. It's our jobs to guide them and tells them the good and the bad things and how to treat it. But society also takes its part to tells their people not to involved in gambling so their lives not gets the problem from gambling. It's how society can treat gambling properly and not getting addicted to gambling so they can playing gambling without gets the bad effect of gambling.

[vs2014]

It really depends on what kind of society you live in. Society is made up of people of different religions so not everyone will accept gambling culturally. But it is up to you whether to gamble or not. The consequences of irresponsible gambling are very dire and can damage your relationship especially with family members I agree with the analysis you have given but such problems lie with people who see gambling as a means of profit. When they lose, they lose money because of which their habits and behavior go bad.

But not every parent will be able to grasp this subtle point, especially when they need to work, take care of everyday life and solve various issues in adult life; in addition, the child himself may close down and not even make contact with his parents, and this also depends on many factors. For example, in adolescence it is very difficult to communicate with teenagers, because they are in adolescence and they become more closed and irritable. But those parents who can find approaches and start a dialogue about this with their children about gambling and problems in it are really strong and sensitive. In most cases, I think that this is extremely difficult to do in reality, at least I have not tried to do this, but I am afraid that this time will come and then I will check what it is like.

[junder]

I think that many gamblers lose money beyond their capabilities, because they don't have good thinking or don't have good maturity so they can't accept the losses that occur, which ultimately makes them trapped in gambling and it's difficult to get out. By getting trapped in a gambling addiction slowly and over time they will see bad changes and can harm other people.

I can not deny that when I started playing in all the casino games, well I lost a lot of money, but in the midst of all that when I played I spent so much money that when I was in the middle of the game the money for me was like chips, things that did not matter much, what mattered to me at that moment was the game and the desire to win, so that blinded me and when the game session was over was when I entered reality and I had those blows of regret, so sometimes when emotions dominated me even above the money I felt very bad, risk management is always important to apply and before playing and deciding how much money we are going to spend, it is the best way to protect yourself.

Risk management is of course an important thing that must be implemented to be able to protect ourselves, such as from losses or losing more money than we can afford. because indeed when emotions dominate then it can lead us to something that is not good, such as continuing to gamble without paying attention to the risks that will definitely occur, of course it is very worrying that when gambling with overflowing emotions this can make us take actions that are not considered. It will clearly get us entangled in serious problems and it will be difficult if we are already entangled in this problem. Even when you are trapped and try to get out, there is very little chance of recovery, this is what is undesirable, so as much as possible we must be able to consider the actions we will take and manage the risks to avoid this and other bad things.

There will definitely be regrets, even for those who gamble for entertainment, in their hearts they will occasionally feel regret for gambling and in my opinion that is a normal thing, especially if the aim of gambling is to make money, of course regret or annoyance will be experienced. Apart from that, in my opinion, as long as we can gamble within reasonable limits by not gambling excessively, it will be fine, with many people having a bad view of gambling because they see many people who have suffered from gambling excessively, but the negative impact is still there. caused by them themselves gambling too much.

Parents might be busy, tired, at work, relaxing or doing whatever they want, but it is their duty to raise their kid, find approach, talk and etc. Speaking about kids, it isnt right to blame anything and anyone if your child becomes interested in gambling, drugs, alcohol during underaged, being closed in himself, lazy. Cant blame society for that. I think we are going a bit off-topic, but thinking that gambling is bad for society, because kids might get addicted - I totally disagree with that. Kids might get addicted only if parents fail at parenting, but not because gambling is so special.

Parents have a very important role in the growth of a child and also the growth of the personality that a child has, it all depends on how parents educate their children and also how the environment they live in, I understand that a child is very likely to be affected by gambling because now we are in the digital era where gambling is something that we often find intentionally or unintentionally in an easy way, especially the spread of gambling on several social media where most children these days prefer to spend their time playing cellphones rather than reading and writing in the study room.

This means that what you said is quite true in this case that although gambling can reach everyone especially children easily but it all depends on how parents educate and look after their children, if for example they do not give full attention to a child most of the time then obviously there is a possibility that a child will fall into gambling unknowingly, And for the problem of addiction I think it will not be experienced by a child who is really underage, because addiction in gambling is when someone understands about how important money is in life while when someone is underage then usually they prefer to prioritize themselves with various things that are entertainment such as playing or watching cartoon videos.

Therefore, gamblers should not rely on gambling in terms of earnings. All the winnings there are just luck, and luck is very changeable.

with those who gamble to make money or to win, I think they really hope and depend on gambling, because sometimes there are people who experience financial problems but it crosses their mind to put a little money into gambling which they think can turn into a lot because there is an opportunity. to win, of course this is not entirely true, when you have financial problems, don't ever look for escape in gambling because it can actually trigger even bigger problems that will occur. For some people, maybe they think gambling is bad, but even though gambling is not completely bad, because there are gamblers who really gamble appropriately and are fine.
It's true what you say, gambling is not that bad and can even be a means of relieving stress if we do it and treat it appropriately. It's just that people who gamble excessively or beyond their limits are the ones who get into trouble with the gambling they have done. It is true that winning in gambling is only based on luck and of course luck will not happen often.

That's why I think, as a parent to a child, it's good to make children understand the consequences of gambling when someone tries it. At least in this way, when it is explained properly and correctly to the child, I think that even if they do not see or be with their children, it is certain that the children will not immediately fall into the temptation of gambling.

Because the bad consequences will always be planted in their minds when they are inclined to play gambling in this field of crypto space. But if you just say that gambling is bad and there is no other explanation, the person will probably become more addicted because they will try to gamble because of the curiosity they will feel.

[lienfaye]

but thinking that gambling is bad for society, because kids might get addicted - I totally disagree with that. Kids might get addicted only if parents fail at parenting, but not because gambling is so special.

Nowadays many minors are already exposed in gambling due to internet. We know there are advertisements anywhere that can attract these minors to try gambling. Good parenting place a big role in order for kids to understand the risk of engaging themselves in gambling and stay away themselves. Because it's quite normal for them to be curious, but if parents are taking time to open a discussion about it, then I think they don't have to try playing since their parents already warn them.
