Teenage gambling is something I’m so pissed about haven’t seen a few first hand and the resentment I express towards it but, I don’t think it deserves a page in the curriculum. Perhaps it could be taught under some addictive habits that could be impacting but, gambling can actually go without alcohol and the vices that it’s been linked with.

Teen gambling is getting very broad and it needs to be taught on its own because the numbers are increasing every day and if it does not get treated with urgency, we might lose all our teens to addiction and it does not stop there because gambling addiction is a tool to other addiction. Teenagers are spending too many hours online and this is a cause for concern. We do not have many productive youths anymore as they are busy gambling trying to make money to live lavishly or selling their body online for clicks. While this is seen as normal for some countries, it is impacting other countries that use to have morals and lived a God fearing life. Most casino do not care about addictions because they are getting profits from their customers that are addicted but all casino should do things to help this problem. More restrictions should be introduced on casino platform to avoid underage gambling to happen.

You are correct, most gamblers don't feel satisfied giving their details out, they feel it is not safe for them. I think if casinos takes kyc very strict many gamblers may lost interest to gamble with casino which they wouldn't feel okay giving identification out. Gambling companies feels Gambling being private will be better for customers. The truth is that even if casinos begins kyc underage people will still look for a way to gamble.  Kyc doesn't mean there won't be any way or any form of gamble for underage people to participate in gambling.
Strictness in KYC can limit underage gambling for a while before they get very creative and find ways to bypass the checks either with identity cards of their parents/ guardians or most likely carefree grannies. Technology is getting mad and these dudes are getting smarter. for me the only way to checkmate teenage gambling seriously is to enlighten parents to install, activate and intensify on parental control features in teenagers' gadgets, that way they are updated with their activities and can provide that level of guidance locally.

I am  one person who detests giving out my details and I surely prefer maintaining anonymity in my gambling activities.

Yes maybe it is quite helpful for the child to grow well, I will not comment much on it because we have many ways to teach good things for the child's future to suit what is good for your child and parents.

The most important thing is that control and limits are mandatory to avoid gambling, because today it is a common concern that children cannot be responsible for entering the gambling world which is very bad if they have a stupid gambler character and are not ready for the consequences if what they receive is bad from gambling.

Learning this would be faster if parents exhausted quality time with kids. Sharing in the process, tips and methods to deal with self control and lift in them the need to be responsible. Kids can't gamble, but, intentionally, parents can begin to groom their ability towards essential needs in gambling, applicable in all walks of life. Effective trainings as this prepares a child to withstand all sort of irresponsible gambling challenge if he becomes a player in the nearest future. Achieving this across millions of homes increasingly gets complex due unstable timing of parents. Which permits casinos, through ads, to continue winning more premature minds into the niche

It will indeed be very difficult if as parents do not have much time to accompany children, where maybe we only provide intake to children during holidays and even then it is rarely done because if both parents are tired of working and do not have much time to teach their children.

instilling the nature of responsibility and so on is quite difficult and requires time from stage to stage to be embedded in the child's personality, yes we know that gambling advertisements are very massive in various social media and it is a vulnerability for a child to be able to touch gambling faster than teaching the principles of life from his parents.

"It's time for schools to focus on the root cause of online teen gambling by implementing gambling prevention education in all high schools. Health class curricula across the nation cover the typical risks for teens such as smoking, drinking, vaping, etc yet gambling education is nowhere to be found in our schools. "
Drinking, smoking and vaping.
Well, these are the habits that somehow grace the environment of a physical casino or sport betting arena. Eventually, it’s become real associated with gambling but, these are activities you find more in clubs. I wonder though, what’s the curriculum on gambling going to look like?
Are they going to have the habits as some subtopic to develop on under gambling or it’s just going to surface under consequences?

Teenage gambling is something I’m so pissed about haven’t seen a few first hand and the resentment I express towards it but, I don’t think it deserves a page in the curriculum. Perhaps it could be taught under some addictive habits that could be impacting but, gambling can actually go without alcohol and the vices that it’s been linked with.

Just as well as, ragge music can go without weed. There is a natural association of ragge music to weed but, it ain’t so, its love and oneness.

Learning this would be faster if parents exhausted quality time with kids.
That’s the problem. Parents aren’t being much responsible these days and when you find your child getting out of a path set for them, they just look out on whom or where to place the blame and gambling has been the victim on several occasions.

Today's teenagers are more advanced than their parents and it is becoming difficult for their parents to control them. Today's teenagers are gaining more experience than their parents especially due to the advanced development of technology, thus parents of today's age are struggling to control their teenagers. Moreover, most of the teenagers are using mobile phones, so any advanced subject is learned by the children before the parents. It will not be possible to stop the use of mobile phones from the teenagers because it is going out of control to prevent them from gambling.
That's right what you said because teenagers can gets the knowledge from many places and many ways including from their friends. Parents can't always guide them so parents must realizes and keeps trying to closer to their children so they can know what their children do. Parents also needs to learn more about the technology so they can know what their children will do and parents can follow without doing something that can makes their relationship with their children will become bad.

Teenagers gets what they wants from their mobile phones without taking too long so they can gets more knowledge that can gives bad or good for them. That will depends on them how they want to use that knowledge and if their parents doesn't give a right guidance while they are young, they can pick a wrong way that can harm them.

As long as children are growing they develop more knowledge because they are becoming leaned in the society. So it's not bad for them to figure out the solution of any changes they have. However on one side the parents should be proud that the child is learning fast but most importantly the children should also know that the parents are trying to protect them from gamble harms. As a child no matter the kind of IQ you have you can't be smarter than your parents because they have more experience than you, it's just that as a child is growing the parents are becoming old.

There is no doubt about that, it's just that sometimes as parents one sometimes doesn't know what solution to give, sometimes one has to give solutions when one doesn't even know what to do, and personally I believe that children today as well as teenagers are very advanced for these times, however it is always good to get peace of mind and true wisdom to be able to lead them on the right path, making them aware of the dangers and temptations that they can find in games of chance, casinos, as well as other games that they can encounter, honestly raising children is not at all easy.

Yes, it should be, we should not only focus on the restrictions that we do to our children, it is a little impactful action because it is easy for children to trick their parents in various ways, giving understanding is also an obligation of parents and it really has to educate them.

I think that is the most basic thing to give to children before monitoring and limiting to see that children ignore what their parents say or not, or obey their parents or not.

Helicopter parenting isn't that effective in grooming a quality behavior for a child. But, clipping a child's wing on gambling is beneficial for his future. Allowing children to take responsibility builds their self esteem and bonds them together with parents. Excessively restricting kids don't contribute in maximizing truth in the life of children. Insofar parenting is a complete task everyone begins as an amateur.

Mistakes are expected, but consistently trying effective grooming techniques quickly advances a parent's knowledge on ways to treat children and enhance their ability to communicate easily to one another whatever troubles them. Recently was reading a site that encouraged parents to say to their kids “I Love You" multiple times a day. Never knew of this, but it helps them feel loved. Reading about parenting is the fastest path to becoming a great parent.

Yes maybe it is quite helpful for the child to grow well, I will not comment much on it because we have many ways to teach good things for the child's future to suit what is good for your child and parents.

I really feel this concern, even though I am still single and don't have a family, but by looking at developments in the digital era like now we can see that most people, including children who are still teenagers or even underage, prefer to spend most of their time playing on smartphones, where most of them like to watch videos on one of the internet media channels when they have finished all their daily tasks such as school.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, the worry is that now there are so many online-based casinos and we can find them on several social media that we often visit, because casinos use social media as one of the biggest media for promotions because they know that many people prefer it. spends most of his time playing on the internet. Therefore, of course this issue should be of concern to most parents. I hope parents can pay more attention to their children and also limit their children's use of smartphones as a precaution.

When it comes to blocking access then it could do but we do know that kids these days are really that wise on how to make use and find out other ways or methods on which on the moment that they do find out or being curious on a certain things then they would really be that definitely finding on how to do it.Its not always for guardian or parents would be taking up the blame because no matter how you do guide them but on the time that curiosity kicks in plus the technologies that we do have today, then it is really that hard to stop it Parental guidance or handling is crucial and as a parent then it's our responsibility to have this thing specially on raising up our kids on which it would really be that relevant and recommended.You can't really be so sure that they would avoid on things but at least we've done our part as a parent.

You're right, sometimes as parents we forget what it's like to be children and we start to act like these, but deep down it's to protect them, only now teenagers, children, have a very high IQ, they find a solution to everything, sometimes parenting is very hard, I still think that the best thing is to make friends with our children, and whoever achieves this is something I admire, for me the danger does not lie in a teenager spending a lot of money, the danger is in getting sick people who threaten them and make them do crazy things, that for me is the most dangerous and precise thing, that is what one tries to protect them.

Handing out a smartphone to a child can be likened to giving him a gram of cocaine said Jean Twenge an addiction expert in the UK. Depression never spiked to its present stage before smartphones got saturated in the market. Kids were better off playing with friends physically or facially than spending time chatting on screens. Moreover, social media has increased sleeplessness on young people, and made them unprepared for adulthood. Using smartphones for educational purpose is a concrete reason why parents purchase phones for kids as early as at age 12.

Unfortunately, tech addiction isn't good for young, growing teenagers, compared to adults who can easily control what they see on social platforms. Imagining how gambling ads are infinitely distributed across multiple popular online platforms, a good number of kids would stumble on such adverts once or twice in a day. In such situations, they're likely to forgo their educational research for gambling thoughts which is quite an early stage to get exposed to depressing activities like gambling.
You're telling me our portable screens are the devil's instruments, corrupting our kids? I'm not convinced. They may disrupt sleep, but they also link us like never before. Has a kid learned about a culture halfway around the world on their phone? Man, that's powerful. Gambling is a sensitive topic. These youngsters will see these advertising regardless of what we do. Why not explain it instead than hiding it? Explain the odds, risks, and everything. Maybe then it won't appear so strange and tempting

What's your sole aim of elevating an instrument or tool which disrupts a child's sleeping habit. Do you know the level of negativity lack of sleeping hours causes a child? Why not sideline the generous learning capability offered by these gadgets, which kids don't care about, and focus on humanity; love, care and kindness, powerful characteristics leaving this surface at a speed of 300km/h. Depression, sadness and failure in academic context is replacing the serenity once enjoyed in homes, where siblings gathered with friends to play and have fun. It links us, yes, does it equate feeling the presence of a friend? Lack of sleep increases depression and dwindles the mental strength of a child. How then do you expect such a kid to learn your gambling odds tutorial?

We only blame gambling and casinos for destroying the youth but we are also largely to blame for destroying our youth. Basically we have to blame our little boys and girls for misusing technology. Allowing young children to use mobile phones is believed to be the main reason behind the destruction of youth. If young children use mobile phones instead of studying, they will surely spend most of their career time looking at mobile phones, so they cannot spend enough time studying, this is basically identified as one of the reasons behind career destruction. Moreover, a child can master many things even after seeing many bad habits of parents.  So parents have to be very aware so that little boys and girls do not become bad by seeing their own bad habits.  It is believed that if we do not allow the use of mobile phones and the wrong use of technology, our youth society will be on the right path.

And it's not bad, the bad thing is that teenagers can enter these sites, a teenager cannot enter a casino, it is an adult who must do so, I'm not saying that the teenager should make one or Another Movement in the casino next to his or her father or mother in the account of one of them, but the teenager cannot have control, so basically a casino or casinos cannot concentrate on that type of things, the problem comes from home , due to the lack of a Father and a Mother who are constantly Supervising what their children do, there is a parental control that they have on Google , Which does not allow you to see messages or calls from them, but it does allow you to Block certain URLs, sites that are of this style, there only with that they can put it on their devices to Control them and I think that the whole Problem is Based on the lack of guidance from parents.

That is a catastrophe just waiting to strike. And this disaster begins right at home Parents, its time for you to step forward. Im talking about mentoring and leading your children. Indeed, URL filters are excellent tools; nevertheless, there is more. We gotta get real about whats happening here. Children of today want excitement and want to challenge limits. That is understandable. They wind up in the wrong areas, though, when they lack clear direction at home. Im not here to point fingers. Im here to say we need to do better. We ought to help one another and figure out what drives these youngsters. Talk to your children, provide explicit limits, show them that life offers more than just online thrills.

I still maintain my point that, the casino has a very huge role to play in the regulation of underaged gambling and that’s if they will be very sincere with their KYC terms and policies.
Most casinos avoid KYC not because they want to attract kids to their sites but to allow gamblers to gamble with privacy. KYC is often disliked by the ones who prioritize privacy and that's why some casinos allow everyone to gamble without asking for any KYC details.

You are correct, most gamblers don't feel satisfied giving their details out, they feel it is not safe for them. I think if casinos takes kyc very strict many gamblers may lost interest to gamble with casino which they wouldn't feel okay giving identification out. Gambling companies feels Gambling being private will be better for customers. The truth is that even if casinos begins kyc underage people will still look for a way to gamble.  Kyc doesn't mean there won't be any way or any form of gamble for underage people to participate in gambling.

The only thing that can make casino and gambling companies to be strict on your young people is if the government can be involved in it then I believe for young people to get access in gambling will be difficult.
I’m not trying to dispute your points but I also want you guys to realize that the government are already winning the fight against unregistered casinos and that’s because for a casino to operate in a particular country now, there might be some legal processes and undertakings they must take which also includes payment of tax and this is to say that, the casinos aren’t actually strict with their KYC and since the major reason for KYC is to fight against money laundering and financial crimes through the casino and I don’t think a regular gambler shouldn’t be scared of KYC in this context because I’m sure if they’re sticker at withdrawals l, then even those who claim don’t like giving out KYC will be forced to do KYC because they want to get their winnings which is a sign that KYC isn’t the issue but the sincerity in implementing the KYC is the issue.
