Is Gambling Affect Education/Studies?

[Furious 7]

That's true but when the context comes back to students who are studying, it's definitely not a good thing when it comes to mentality.

Although here we know when we discuss mentality and gambling age cannot show how they keep their emotions and self-control but when we are faced with students only a few of them have very good self-control and an attitude of responsibility because young age is an age where we will be a little difficult to control our hormones and emotions (although there are a handful who can but most will not be able to).

This is sometimes the problem that I don't think it's very wise to have so many young people who are still at school age but always prioritize gambling over other things.

On the other hand, from elementary school students are taught to behave, to raise hands when they need something/want to answer or ask, discipline at school and at home. At young age, personality or that "I am the greatest" is not developed as much as when they are adults. At young age they are still dependable from adults greatly. That is why their self-control and responsibility at higher level then when they are independeble adults. And compared with gambling when they are adults, they dont have enough chances to repeat game if they lose. There are individual cases when kids steal money to gamble or lie to parents. However, chances for kid to gamble or to become addicted are far less than if adult would be on their place.

Patterns for teenagers sometimes always want to try but their thinking is still too unstable so this is still a difficult thing to avoid, although the problem of unstable also depends on maturity but teenagers are only a handful of those who can become adults because the phase is still not really passed so there will be a lot of problems that will be caused.

Some time ago I saw a post about another young person who was unable to resist the urge to gamble (even though it started from a lack of financial conditions) so chose to gamble and eventually ended up losing his life. This condition is always repeated when there is no full awareness of the player to be responsible for what he does.
Not to discredit but it would be better to prevent or at least be able to brake for yourself rather than having to do dangerous things at a very young age even though there is an expression about there is nothing wrong with trying new things but still we also need to often remind teenagers not to overestimate ambitions especially in gambling.

What is sad story. I wonder what the boy most have been thinking before committing suicide. Gambling is not advisable for children because it can easily affect their mental and emotional health. Children are still developing, and their minds are not strong enough to handle the pressure, losses and stresses that come with gambling. When they lose money or feel trapped by their mistakes, they may experience shame, fear, frustration, stress, depression and hopelessness. And this can definitely push them into making unthinkable, uninformed or dangerous decisions. Instead of exposing children to gambling, they should be guided towards positive activities that build their confidence, skills, and future.

The stressful nature that financial loss in young age can cause on the psyche usually creates the most pessimistic choices of an individual due to the absence of options. You tell me very rationally why it is so imperative to shield children against this dark world, which so far, has prematurely affected their mental state. It is upon us to ensure that we switch their interests towards positive issues in order to avoid having a similar storey of this heartbreak.

That you are gambling should not affect your education, you need to study hard and you need to learn and acquire some skills and you also have to improve on yourself, gambling is an entertainment, all about fun, when you are free at your pleasure you gamble and enjoy yourself, while there should be time for studying, because you need to know more and develop yourself, so that one don't affect the order in in negative way.

[LUCKMCFLY]

This is why its important that you do know about moderation and control when dealing up with it so that you wouldnt be ending up on getting addicted because once it do happens then it would be that so hard to get out or completely stop it midway.

Yes, it's a fact, and all of this is part of something very important every person who gambles in a casino is and should be an adult aware of their actions If a person does badly at the casino, they must accept it and learn that they shouldn't go back to doing so badly, or at least spend less But if the person doesn't want to learn and gives in to the impulse to gamble and spend their money, that's their sole responsibility.

Has anyone seen real number of underaged gamblers? I wish I would know how many of them are bad at studying, and how many have good results at school. ChatGPT say that every 5th child is involved into gambling (but it does not specify if they gamble in casino, or use luck based challenge with in-game currency), and only 1.5% if them has problems with gambling. That is 3 out of 1000. What do you think, is this a lot?

People gamble for entertainment, so if we gambling, we must be careful not to let it negative affect us in any way. Gambling is only for entertainment, but it cannot be accepted in such a way that it is no longer entertainment. accepting it as entertainment means taking it in a limited scope, only for entertainment, and it must be stopped at that moment when the excitement is over. If such control cannot be maintained, the purpose of gambling can easily change and go in the wrong direction, from which people can easily become addicted.

I absolutely disagree, because explain to me if one smokes, this affects education, or if one drinks moderately, this affects education. In my opinion they are unrelated things, the only thing that changes is when you become addicted to one of these things. If you become addicted to smoking or alcohol or gambling, this has an impact, otherwise I would say no.

Just because you’re doing it moderately today doesn’t mean you can’t get addicted tomorrow. As long as you’re actively involved in either drinking, smoking or gambling, then you pretty much have a high tendency of actually getting addicted. Addiction doesn’t just start suddenly but gradually through constant repetition of that habit, and sometimes you don’t even know how managed to get addicted when you were sure that a while ago you were just doing it for fun and moderately.

I Stumbled on a news that "Betting Companies in Uganda Luring Students to lost their Futures" with fake bonuses and promise of big wins. According to the explanation, the time you use in the casino affect your future and life which would have been used for studies. They use an idiomatic expression to portray the point by saying that " robbers came to steal money which your properties", but casinos came to steal your time, which will affect everything in your life in the future. So their brighten futures only ended up in gambling.  And they further said the 30% of the students are well engaged in online gambling instead of focusing their students. And for "Sports Betting" and the money that is meant for tuition fees were used in this act.
And that prompt the regulators to come up and say that gambling companies are exploiting the students with unrealistic wins. And research shows that 97% of the students used mobile phones to gamble online during school hours as a disguised as entertainment.
You can click this link to read more of the whole study and what about the case in your country? Students are using Tuition fees to gamble and dropping out from schools across.
How Betting Companies Luring Students to Lost their Future
Students use tuition fees for sports betting, and drop out
This is an alarming issues concerning students.
What is your say in this critical issue against gambling companies?

In this case I don't think we should be in a hurry to blame the bet companies because they would have to advertise their betting companies so as to gain customers so their company wouldn't fold up due to lack of customers, the people to blame in this case are the students who allows themselves to be manipulated into gambling and probably end up using their tuition fees to gamble , they should understand that gambling is a game of luck and no matter how juicy they present it to them, they would have resisted from gambling knowing that if they lost the money in the process there's no other way of getting their tuition fees..

I understand the pressure that comes with being in school and most times you don't have money for handouts and feeding and they present to you games that will make you win some amount of money to help yourself and in bid of gambling to win money and sort out your bills you lost and incure more debts for yourself and parents, because it's the parents they will still fall back to for  them to be given money when they have used the one sent for gambling, students should stay away from gambling.

Education and gambling to cannot go together is either gambling or education and for youths education is very important to them because that is the foundation of their life and so should not be altered at all children should be allowed to focus on their studies and not introducing them to money at a tender age because it will definitely affect them, the stage they are is to acquire knowledge to help build their future, if they had no basic knowledge how will they start gambling, those gambling sites introducing them to gambling because of this selfish interest should be ban and sued and charged for child abuse and if possible the money should be returned to the school for the children's tuition fees.

If you cannot read,write and understand of what value are you to the society or can you even gamble.

Different experience for different fork's, although there are some students that can easily get distracted and gambling could become a dead end to their education if they combine it, but on a other hand, we have some students who are depending on gambling to help aid their educational pursuit and many of them have recorded some level of success.

Dude, education is important, that is no doubt, but today you should not kill yourself studying. Employer is interested in your skill to adopt to his working process, be stress resistant, experience is a must or a huge plus when you get accepted. Nobody look at your grades in school and university diploma. Employer does not give a damn if you have A+ or D in math, sport, chemistry or any other lesson.

I see you have said that a person need to know more and develop. I agree with that, but at school you wont learn nothing new besides school program. Self study is more useful imho. Find what you are interested in and wish to do as job and study that. That will be more valuable.

These numbers  could even even be small compared in physical reality. Because the rate of young ones going into gambling is really alarming.  The female gender hardly do.these things even though there is a very small % of them involve in it. But the amount of male in the male gender in gambling is really alarming. Both in the secondary school and in rhe universities  and any other tertiary institutions.  It is not just alarming but really concerning and most of them loss focus to studies and important things that are supposed to better their lives but while away time, attention and resources in gambling halls. 

Infact most of them dont even go  to gambling halls again but rather use their smart phones visiting one gambling site to another. This has caused so much distractions in the hearts of these young ones.

Nothing will harm us with limitations, the harm starts right from the moment we lose control, and due to this uncontrolled activity we easily become addicted to anything. So first we have to fix our own activity, a person can study well even by doing drugs and smoking, but the physical damage that is involved in these things will definitely happen, so we must be careful about this. If drugs and smoking are done in a very limited range, it will not have any moral effect on our studies, but the physical damage can never be ignored.

Just because you?re doing it moderately today doesn?t mean you can?t get addicted tomorrow. As long as you?re actively involved in either drinking, smoking or gambling, then you pretty much have a high tendency of actually getting addicted. Addiction doesn?t just start suddenly but gradually through constant repetition of that habit, and sometimes you don?t even know how managed to get addicted when you were sure that a while ago you were just doing it for fun and moderately.

Just because you are alive today does not mean that tomorrow you can be alive, tomorrow you can also be dead. This speech doesn't make much sense, because whatever we can be there, not be there, we can live, we can die. The important thing is to do it in moderation, always, every day and you certainly won't fall into addiction.

if someone gambles it should be only for entertainment, the main rule is to play for fun and stop as soon as the fun is over,but the problem starts when a person cannot control themselves, then gambling is no longer entertainment and instead becomes a source of stress and worry,many people start just to pass time, but slowly it turns into a habit, after that losing money feeling bad and negative effects on life begin to appear,so even if someone gambles it is very important to know their limits, one’s life family and mental peace should never be put at risk, entertainment should be something that gives good feelings not harm...

Patterns for teenagers sometimes always want to try but their thinking is still too unstable so this is still a difficult thing to avoid, although the problem of unstable also depends on maturity but teenagers are only a handful of those who can become adults because the phase is still not really passed so there will be a lot of problems that will be caused.

Some time ago I saw a post about another young person who was unable to resist the urge to gamble (even though it started from a lack of financial conditions) so chose to gamble and eventually ended up losing his life. This condition is always repeated when there is no full awareness of the player to be responsible for what he does.
Not to discredit but it would be better to prevent or at least be able to brake for yourself rather than having to do dangerous things at a very young age even though there is an expression about there is nothing wrong with trying new things but still we also need to often remind teenagers not to overestimate ambitions especially in gambling.

And this can definitely push them into making unthinkable, uninformed or dangerous decisions. Instead of exposing children to gambling, they should be guided towards positive activities that build their confidence, skills, and future.

This kind of thing is only one of the many that happen, actually this kind of mentality does not only happen to children but for those who are old can feel the same way but the vulnerability for teenagers especially with unstable thinking like gen Z maybe this will be much worse.

So even though there is no special ban especially in some countries where gambling is legal for teenagers but it would be better to try to consider more conditions and make many cases as examples so that we are not easily trapped in gambling.
Although the intention of the pleasure they want to seek is the same as most of the gamblers who exist today, but still if the mentality is bad, it is not the pleasure they get, it is the destruction they can feel even the worst possibility is like some cases with the loss of life just because of gambling which is not worth it to happen.

For a long time now, you can see a lot of advertising for bookmakers when you go online in my country. You see this advertising even if you are not the target audience, i.e. you have never searched for anything related to gambling on the internet. This happens simply because bookmaker advertisements are broadcast to everyone. All you have to do is watch the sports news or launch a computer game app on your mobile phone, and you will easily see extremely annoying bookmaker advertisements. Unfortunately, there is no way to opt out of such advertisements. Personally, such advertisements only annoy me and do not make me want to place a bet with them. On the contrary, I will never place a bet with them because, in my opinion, they are spammers.

Immature students may feel differently about this, and people without life experience may become customers of bookmakers that use aggressive advertising. Whether they will learn from this or spend all their time betting is an individual matter, there is no point in lumping everyone together.

While education I mean academic pursuit is not combinable with other activities,  this is why I won't suggest gambling for anyone running academic program, both gambling and education should be done on one for one basis and not a combinable events if you don't want to end both in regrets.

Many students have hard their education caught short because such enteranglement which should have been avoided for the best of their education.

Although few get away with it, most especially those that are in higher grades before they started gambling.
