Topic: Can old generation cause the habit of gambling in young generation ? - page 12. (Read 1368 times)

We must teach our children what will be useful to them in their lives, and this initiative must come from us, the parents.

Children do not understand what is bad and what is good until their parents explain the difference to them, it is our task to try to give the children the best we can, but what they will do when they grow up will depend only on them.

It seems to me that people get acquainted with gambling when they reach the age of majority, in this case everything will depend only on their choice, parents here can only advise something, but will not be able to influence much.

Habits or behavior usually come from the frequency of things we see, say or hear. So it's not impossible that the older generation could cause gambling habits in the younger generation if the younger generation continuously listens to this.

We know that the younger generation is a generation that's hungry for experience, they usually want to know and try everything (especially new things), if this innateness is triggered by something else, then that happens.

Growing up, children pick up a lot from the people around them, which is why it's usually advised to avoid doing bad things in their presence or discussing adult topics around them. A child learns best when they are young because they process information more quickly, believing that everything they see or hear is good and wanting to learn more or even do it themselves. Children should not be exposed to adult content in order to prevent them from learning from it. Even though kids can learn things on their own these days thanks to computers and other resources, although it's preferable if they don't learn all this things at home from their parents or family members.

To stop them from learning about cricket fantasy games and gambling you need to stop discussing about it in their presence and also you need to stop playing it when they are around and the most important thing is to educate them about the dangers of gambling and how bad it is for them to participate in it, also if at all possible, you should also make up lies to them in order to discourage them from playing in the future in case peer pressure influences them. At these young stage children are likely to believe what their elders tell them.

Older people need to be careful what they discuss and the language they use around young underaged people who they know they can easily influence. The situation will be difficult to control, unless you are able to tell the older people to be more careful when they discuss about their cricket games. Before these people start these discussions, they have to be sure that there are no young people in sight who may be influenced to want to try out gambling at their early age due to their discussions.

I believe that we must understand why "we bet".
Do you do it for fun? it's great! Are you doing it to "make money"? stop!
you have to study mathematics, finance and a (bit of) statistics and then we'll talk about it again about the argument...

obviously (my personal opinion) gambling seen as pure fun is literally fantastic and amazing.
my father played the "lotto". I never played a euro even though he followed it every week for many many years.

so even if a person is exposed to certain topics, it doesn't mean he ends up repeating certain behaviors

Thing is, you can't really control what the kids in your family will do next. You can only influence it. The key is to not suppress their interests but guide them to understand what their priorities should be. Games are cool, cricket fantasy games especially are super fun, but they shouldn't let it get in the way of their studying. Just keep in mind that every individual has a unique way of understanding so know what peeks their interest.

In order to properly manage younger need to create a suitable environment for them. And in this case those who are elderly members of the family should think about this matter. The younger always try to follow the older. When a family has a discussion about a topic almost most of the time, the kids will be encouraged to learn about that topic. I think if you can convince those members to point out the negative aspects of the discussion, then those people will definitely try to refrain from discussing the game. If they take precautions, it can stop its impact on the younger.

You know most of the things we find ourselves doing today is as a result of what we saw the older ones doing or discussing about. No matter how our elders tries to hide things from us we still find out what they are trying to hide from us when we start growing up and for me instead of hiding a habit that someone feels it's not okay for another person that is close to them to get involved in why not come in the open and tell them about that habit and the disadvantages of them being involved in such a habit rather than keeping it away from them. It is believed that no matter how you hide things from the younger ones, someday they're gonna find out and they will feel it has advantages that's why you kept it away from them and before you know it they're already involved in it.

It is important to let our younger ones know about a habit that we ain't much comfortable with and tell them the dangers in it as it will help them to stay away from such habits because they are already aware of the harm it will cause to them should they get involved.

The fore fathers are all into gambling, and they all did it for fun, this is normal thing, but as time goes on they start betting money and valuable things, this should have no issue with your family, I grow up with my parents and they have never gamble in my front before, I knew my grand father too and I've never seen him gambling before.

Children only tend to do what is been practiced around them, if you or anyone in your house is not into gambling I believe things will be fine, and while you kid grows up the next thing to do is avoid giving him space, not the tiger parenting type but good monitoring, you will be able to know the type of friends he keep in school.

Gambling is not a curse on your grand children because of your own parents are into gambling, it makes no sense, keep your environment clean, kids do whatever they see, set a good example around them, and teach them about the wrong friends that can change one's destiny.

A lot of the things we do while growing up were things we saw our parents or elders do while we were kids. This should be part of the reason a topic was raised here suggesting that we should not gamble before our kids ekse they will emulate us and this can have huge negative impact on them.

So the direct answer to this is a yes, the old generation does influence the younger generation to adopt gambling. Just imagine how many coverts a family will have when the dad happens to hit a life-changing jackpot. Even people that hears the testimony will join up to several generations to come.

The secret with kids, despite being attentive and wise, they don't cease to obey the most kind of adults. Often get them goodies, engage in different form of exercise with them, could be trekking and dancing. The kids won't have reason to sit around where gambling discussion thrive. Having fun is their major priority, like a utility. Provide the kids with fun events, use it to purchase their loyalty. When you've noticed they are loyal and ready to listen to your instructions, henceforth, share your advise with them. Begin by correcting those who already envision being gamblers like the older generations they've been listening to their lengthy conversations. Follow up with studies, asking kids about their assignments in school. Lastly, instruct them to take siestas, once they get used to sleeping in the afternoon. Nothing will ever attract them to the company of gamblers. They'll begin to think better and act reasonably, focusing on their studies and resting when necessary. Reward their performances in school. It's simple to drive kids away from bad influence. No need rushing it, or advising them to stop being with the older ones. They'll gradually begin to change and start a fresh behavior, once you begin to follow such routines as these. It's just the few I can add, but you're expected to have a unique way as well. Depending on the emotional intelligence between you and the kids. Good you noticed this earlier, and seek for means to save the kids. We can't depend or wait on the government for everything. It's our duty to take it upon ourselves to restore our nation's dignity.

Yes, the older generation can be a factor that causes the younger generation to engage in gambling activities. We must be able to realize from the start that gambling is a bad act, especially if the younger generation continues or learns what the older generation does, it will have an impact on their future, because usually the younger generation learns. from what they see and hear, if you see the older generation carrying out gambling activities in front of the younger generation or children, it would be better if you gave advice to the parents not to carry out gambling activities openly in front of the younger generation, this will influence younger generation to follow in his footsteps.
If the older generation is still determined to carry out these activities without considering your advice then you must be firm and make the older generation afraid and not reckless in using gambling in front of the younger generation.

actually the environment is the main factor for the younger generation to carry out positive and negative activities, I mean if your environment is dirty and likes to throw rubbish carelessly then the younger generation will follow these actions, just as your environment is full of gamblers then the younger generation will also follow the trend what parents do and will really influence the younger generation if they let it go, and if your environment is filled with positive things then the younger generation will also be carried away into doing positive activities, so the main point is actually that the environment really influences the growth and development of the younger generation if you want The younger generation or your children are safe from negative things, it would be better if you moved away from an environment that does negative things such as gambling.

Absolutely can happen but this only tends to occur if said younger audience doesn't have anything their attention is concentrated in. Find him a hobby of sorts really or something simple he can do that can lead to something he can aspire in the future. Not necessarily studies, even drawing or building figures can be a good past time as well as a push towards jobs related to those industries. Those are the more relatively light or easy methods of trying to get him away from the influence of gambling though.

Outside of that, it's purely just communication with the other party. Trying to talk them out of stopping convos like that around the kid or having a completely separate space for them instead would be for the best. It depends on the age but at a certain point, maybe around 17,18, if the issue still persists, just let them try it out for a bit. At least they know what they're doing and has someone to guide them unlike if they try to enter alone and blow god knows whose money.

It's going to be very hard because of what environment you grow up with, and obviously it will have a big impact on the young generations specially if they see the old ones playing and gambling and so they can influence them.

I guess the best thing to do is try to talk to them early so that they won't be sway on playing or at least lessen the effects on them. Just tell them to just focus on their study and what having a good education can do for them in the future. And so you will also guide them, this is not just a one time attempt, you should stay with them specially if you are the parents.

Is it that possible that you will allow children constantly see you do a thing and you think they won't imitate you in doing so too behind you just because you had spoken to them not to do it. It's should be that you don't do it right in front of them at all because it's a mirage to assume they will adhere to your caution.

Children learn about 90% of all they start with in life from the older people that are always close to, what they see them do, talk, or listen to all the time. Children look up to us and in their innocent mindset they are consumed with the believe that we the older generation to them knows the best and whatever we're doing is the best which makes them follow our footsteps.

Anything you don't want your kids to engage in never do it in their presence, gambling games is a fun and entertaining activity and you think children wouldn't want to have fun too with it after they have been seeing daddy , uncle and older cousin's that are like their first role model meshing themselves in it

Communication, this is one way to be able to emphasize to those older people who often talk about or do various activities, you must be able to discuss that they must keep their distance or at least discuss these games outside the reach of children or the younger generation in your family.
Hearing or seeing this activity too often cannot immediately make feel curious and try it, but over time it can have the impact of wanting to try what some parents do, this is reality that anyone should be able to avoid.
Even though they may not allow their children or the younger generation in your family to take part, it will be much more dangerous if they try and take part in such activities out there, because they can get out of control and even tend to cause undesirable things to happen, such as addiction.

Moreover, you also have to give direction and advice to all the younger generations in your family that every activity that has been carried out by these older people should not be imitated, let alone just tried for fun.
You must be able to provide good education so that they avoid any activities related to gambling or betting games.

There are some old people in my family which are paying cricket fantasy games. They usually talk about the games and their performance is matches almost daily. It is obvious that if any younger guy in family will listen about this, he will also be eager to know more about this. How can I stop the younger generation in my family being carried away by this and focus on other important things like studies only ?
