Casino/gambling center near an institution of learning?

[oktana]

I think it’s a distraction to students. It’s the same or maybe similar as asking if it’ll affect students if there’s a club around the school. Students would definitely get tempted to have a taste of what’s around. Instead of these, the school can look to implement things that can help keep student in focus too.

Do you think having a casino or any gambling center close to an institution of learning, will influence the students somehow or should I say be a positive or negative reinforcement on them, in anyway?

Thoughts?

Honestly, yes.
Never mind casinos or the like which usually attract young people of all ages, game centers are a very popular place. For this reason, usually before setting up a business, especially in the casino sector like this, there will be permits, and usually several countries or places will consider the location where the casino will be built.

Yes, although perhaps the regulations in each country are different, and perhaps there are also countries that don't have that problem at all, however, some others are very compatible.

Because after all, in the world of teenagers who are still at school, especially those who often join in doing something, they will be very easily tempted by what others are doing. Although in fact, a casino must also have its own rules for entering the casino, which usually requires you to be at least that age, and that means that school children will not be allowed to enter the area or the casino.

But what about the impact of life in a casino environment? It's bound to change a little, right? because casinos are closely related to several things that are considered negative by many parties. So, it could be that they will object if it affects these students. But once again, it will also depend on the regulations and policies of each region. Because there will definitely be different conditions and environments in each region or country.

It would surely have an affect on some of the student's, honestly there shouldn't be anything that could distract a student near or close to an institution of learning.

Any student that wants to be affected by what's set close to them is going to be affected; if not, even if they set up the betting shop in the room where the student sleeps, if he or she doesn't want to join and be influenced by it, he or she won't be. It's all a matter of choice and decision. 
 
It's not too good to have a betting shop close to school, but that doesn't change anything much from my own point of view, because some of the students who might not even be focused in school due to gambling might not be using the betting shop close to them but either go to an go to an online casino or go far from the school premises and gamble.

Certainly it is. Students are keen observers and explorative, so whatever new to them, they will most likely want to experience a bit of it. And I'm sure they will always find fun in gambling knowing the thrill and excitement are  there. But the worst thing is, if they can't control their gambling excitement, they will eventually fall into gambling addiction and may ruin the bright future waiting ahead of them.

I can agree that no matter what, some of these students will somehow try to explore the world of gambling if it is very accessible to them. Just look at the malls and other theme parks near academic institutions, and you will find out a lot of students are the patrons of these establishments. So we can't discard the fact that gambling site nearby would really somehow attract some student patrons.


With respect to how the academic institution will act on this, I would say, they should talk to the assigned authority which is granting business permit for gambling business to have open discussion with the gambling owners. As much as possible, it should be far from the academe and if not, they should make an arrangement to this casino management.

I agree with you on this, just they say that what you give attention will definitely give you direction, anyone that chooses not give attention to a particular thing can not be affected by that same especially as to this regards of, just for instance when I was in the university although I lived off campus so I had about five roommates and they all smokes, because I chossed not to be influenced by it I didn't joined them. However everything is all about decipline and self control towards what you want for yourself, is all about being yourself and not following what the crowd seem to be doing or talking about. Not that smoking is bad but just that I chooses not to the same as gambling too thou I do gamble as a fun once in a while.

The student will gets the effect of that club because they can imagine how if they playing gambling and wins much money. They can becomes rich people, maybe they will be one of the rich people in their school and they will not wants to finish their study. The temptation to go to the casino will comes to them and makes some of them visit the casino to see the gambling games that they can play.

They can have fun by playing gambling but they can also gets addicted to gambling without they realizes. Once they feels the temptation, they will comes again and again without thinks that how if they use much money and lose all of the money. In their ages, they will not thinks about the money because they can asks to their parents and back to playing gambling again.

Well, let’s talk about my high school years to give an answer for your question. When I was in high school, I’m following the sports of my favorite team and that’s why I can easily guess which matches are we going to win on football and basketball. After a point, one of my friend said: “There is a betting office and it’s so close to our school. Let’s play a bet and won a huge amount of money because we guess every match correct!”. Than, we started to sports betting and at the beginning we guess almost every match and earn very well from bets. However, after some point, we start to lose and play more than normal and become additional.
For summarize, having a casino or betting office close to the schools or institution of learning, it may cause the people or children to getting addicted to gambling.

The relatively large impact on students when a gambling center is so close, it clearly implies that the participants are students, people who have enough curiosity as well as recklessness and lack of knowledge but in some ways, I think the organizers will be relatively amateur and will soon be destroyed when education is a great foundation, once threatened, there will be protection from the government. In addition, no matter what kind of family background students have, they do not have a stable source of income, cannot have a stable number of customers, this audience is not suitable for making large profits.

Not only got distracted, but also will be a real problem to students. Many students would be distracted from the existence of the Casino/gambling center near their learning place. Local policy needed to bring a local wise to prevent this problem, maybe the local government need to discuss and find the problem solving regarding this problem, and the final result will be an educational briefing to their students.

Once they experience a bit of gambling, they will feel the excitement and thrill of the first winnings, what will trigger even more desire for gambling. It can disturb their focus on the school and its subjects, as they will keep thinking and talking about gambling all day long with each other, probably even imagining they don't need to study anymore for a living and professional career in the future, since gambling seems the perfect alternative on this case.

It will take some time until they realize gambling is a bad idea for earnings, and that it should never replace school and education. It can prejudice these students a lot until they reach that conclusion, while others are likely to not even reach this conclusion by themselves. So, to have a casino near an educational institution is definitely a bad idea.

You know the answer to your question my guy, don't need to put up a post like this.

but since you already did anyway, let's humor this.

Back when I was in primary school there was this stall where kids could "gamble" for toys, coins, and small pets, of course it was selling hotcakes and it did so to the point that kids are both looking to it at the end of every schoolday, and to the point that the parents either had to stop giving their kids from giving money in favor of home-cooked meals, cause they'd end up spending the money trying to snag pets and toys or whatever, or some affluent parents granting their kids more money so they'd still be able to eat. Pretty crazy if you'd ask me.

Now, I'm not saying that the same could happen with the setting you proposed, cause at the end of the day most casinos at least from where I live demand that you be at least 21 years old before they let you in, but with parents fetching their kids from school and then going to the casino to have some prime time it may expose them to gambling at an earlier age, which is not a good thing.

There's nuances to this, but the thing is it's not about good or bad lol, it's about if the kids will be affected negatively adjacent to their parents ending up on the casino, or if we're talking about older students.

Quite clearly it is a negative overall consequence.

Brains of people under 18 are still under development, and if they get too exposed to addictive things they will be addicted much worse than if they learn about it and are exposed to it when they are older.

It's a know thing, that's why the fast food industry targets kids with their meals and toys, etc, it's easier to get them hooked when they are younger.

For some reason fast food for kids is still widely promoted. At least casinos are usually for adults only.

in my opinion it doesn't influence, I say this because looking at today's society, I realize that even if the casino is not close to the school or university, people who have problems and are not able to solve them still enter the world of alcohol, drugs and games of chance. So just because a casino is located close to a school or university does not mean it will be a bad influence on studies. There are class opening hours and looking at these schedules it is clear that there is no way for students to have time to go and play in physical casinos close to schools.

Yeah, actually the security in casino that near an institution should be more tougher because in case there's an underage went to the casino, the casino might be sued and lost everything. So, they would be making sure there are no underage that gamble on their casino.

If the student want to gamble, they will high likely gamble on casino that far from the city since the security is not that strict or illegal ones.

100% will influence. I saw it with my own eyes, even many years ago when casinos and slot machines were not legalized in my country, not far from my university there were gambling establishments and yes, there were always students there who played. So there will be a connection between the student and game in this case there is no doubt.

It will.

Because during break times, there's a tendency that those students will enter the premises of the casino. And from there, you know that it's gonna affect them once they get addicted.

During my college days, there have been some kind of distractions like that and many of my batchmates weren't seen onto the next years of my college time.

That's why it's a big factor for the students to not see those kind of establishments near the schools and universities.

[Jaycoinz]

At this point, what happens to the students at the institute in regards to gambling is a self choice, because as educated persons, they ought to know more, the implications of getting addicted. It doesn't need to be taught in class  before students of high institution should be able to understand its effect if they get addicted. Things like this are common these days as casino are only trying to get good locations where they can easily get bettors to patronise them especially with the fact that the young ones gambling more than the aged due to curiosity and urge to make money swiftly. And this another reason why self discipline should be taught at home, because we never know the kind of peer pressure they might be passing through at school or anywhere beyond our watch.

Casino/gambling center near an institution of learning? Yeah I don't agree if there is a new casino been built near school I mean brooo it is obvious even tho maybe some student cant get entry to that casino but still some students might still curious about casino and if the big university kick in it would be more dangerous in my opinion because their age might above 21+ so they are legal to entry the casino at that point.

If I the casino Owner Im not gonna put a gambling center near institution of learning

That's because you're a good person.
But many casino owners don't care at all: their casinos will be visited by students, or hard workers, or someone else. Such casino owners do not care that students are often yesterday's schoolchildren, and that their psyche is still considered childish.
After all, if everyone remembers himself at the age of 18, he will understand that at this age his head is empty, students do not want to study or do something serious. Students want to have fun, get quick results and believe in miracles, which are traps in the adult world.
