Not everyone is aware of this, maybe young people focus only on making money and they forget to control their emotion. The volume of young addicted on gambling is really increasing and we cannot stop them from doing that, I just hope that they are being guided by a good people so they will not be broke in the future.

I have the feeling that  this is becoming more of a trend now with more young people and more time on their hands, they can easily be turned into such societal orders, taking up gambling.
Young people can easily be influenced by anyone and maybe younger generation wants an easy money too so they grab this kind of risk.

I think if this continues, there will be more addicting gambler from the young people and they are difficult to leave the gambling places because they still want to make money from the gambling games. Maybe they are like playing gambling is because they can play the games in every place they want and right now, they can use crypto for the bets, so I think they don't have any problem if they're going to play the games. But we still need to explain to them that playing gambling is not good for them and it can make them lose big money and they should listen to this if they are a concern with their own life and their family.

This isn't a good scenario if we seen our youth over drowned with gambling the same ways as the adults did. There should be a regulations or control over the gambling players, because they might be addicted with such lucky profitable games. Their studies or financial dependency might be affected so well, if ever they can't control their actions specially the emotional drive.

Greed is a normal behavior so that's why it still dominates a person when it comes to money matters and money games such as gambling. And as we see opportunity in gambling because of those experiences that we had and we are able to make money there, that opportunity won't be removed on our minds.

Our mindsetting is its very likely that we can make money easily through gambling. It is easy money and everyone thinks that taking up the risk is worth over time until we become broke. And the younger we started to gamble it will develop until we grow old but this situation varies from people who are going through this type of addiction.

Actually not only young people who are addicted to gambling, there are still many senior gamblers who are still playing. Because actually the goal of the gamblers is the same, namely winning and earning money.

In Asia there's plenty of old gamblers. Old people aren't working and have a lot of free time so they start spending it playing cards or mahjong and get hooked. There's no rule that says you have to be young to be a gambler and young people in general have much less money than old people who don't need fast cars or new houses but have pension.

This is a bad thing because young people should have a useful and much better activity. Gambling games are things that have a bad impact, especially the effects of addiction generated in gambling can damage a person's mindset. When someone has experienced addiction, they will have difficulty quitting and most people will experience destruction in their lives when they cannot control the effects of specific addiction.

After recent changes to the merit system, I am trying to do something useful and contribute to the forum. And this is what I collect, hopefully it will change my merit.
It would be much better if you didn't preface a post like this by stating what your real intentions are, i.e., to earn merits.  This would justifiably be construed as merit begging.

Everyone here knows gambling CAN be a problem, just like alcohol, sex, and drugs have the potential to be problems.  The fact is that most people who engage in all of these activities don't develop addictions.

There's already lots of help for problem gamblers, like Gamblers Anonymous and a tip I often hear around bitcointalk is that if you're a compulsive gambler you shouldn't be hanging around casinos, playing cards, or participating in discussions about gambling (unless they're related to how to overcome the problem of gambling addiction).

It's not a new issue here.

The urge to participate in risky activities is an intrinsic part of moving into adulthood. Take gambling from them, and the same adolescents will start doing drugs, alcohol, engage in random sex etc. Also, they are extremely sensitive in this age, so you can't fake it for them, you can't just feed them with "simulated gambling and other forms of gambling-like behaviors", like the article suggests, because that would be a pill they won't swallow. They need something real. They want to do something what adults really do, and not just average adults, but the most daring ones, from their point of view.

In short, eradicating a problem, gambling in this instance, you can cause more problems to emerge, which are more severe than the eradicated one. So, forbidding your child to gamble or to drink beer, think twice with what he/she can replace it.
Excessive effort to make money. If you run out of money, gambling addicts won't stop. He would instead look for ways to earn more money, even in an excessive way. The most extreme way to try is to borrow money from loan sharks or steal.

Gambling is one of the most addictive so when young people can go into that then they get trapped easily unlikely the experienced old people,but I don't think most of the young people are not concentrating on the gambling or these kind of things because now a days the people were much concentrating on building their career.

This is an article about that, a gambling disorder in most young people
- https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5841330/
As stated in the article, experts and analysts know the causes and issues that lead to gambling addiction, they have clearly spoken about the dangers, consequences, and effects of gambling on the nerves and health of a person then there is a series of methods to stop that. But we are still here very clearly, the number is still increasing significantly every year, it has no signs of diminishing, even rising dizziness.

And the problem here is I want to ask why that happens? All the information is complete but people still can not solve the gambling addiction problem, the analysis is useless or our greed still dominates all.

Please let me know your opinion on this issue and if you have enough power, what would you do to solve this


Self will really affects the decisions of many people who's still engaged with gambling, even there's already research and study about this addictions but if the person itself don't want to apply every ideas there's nothing we can do, it's needed for the person to move forward and completely move away from
his own will so the treatment will be more effective.

Well, the research is kinda of right, been that gambling addiction is mostly affecting the young people because the majority of people who uses the internet is the young generation. Nowadays, one does not need to go to an offline casinos to gamble, all you need to do is to log in to your favorite gambling site to play. If gambling was exclusively offline, then probably age restrictions and caution will be made.

Though,  some governments of some countries are trying to manage this addictions but as far as internet still exist, it will take a lot of man power.
Gambling is something that is always finding a way to halt the control of someone over himself which is believed to be in the same category when it comes to drugs and alcohols, but in this case we are talking about a psychological addiction rather than a physical addiction.

Governments today try as much as possible to create awareness to the issues that arrives with gambling but most of it is always centered on the fact that people will just not want to stop being greedy and they let that affect their emotions as they look for things they should not be looking for in gambling.

I am neither denying the fact nor agreeing with the conclusion of the survey here! because it is impossible for a single entity to gather a complete picture globally. It is very much possible for a single entity to capture the picture of the local scene and probably they have witnessed such trend of addiction on a particular area or country! So it is not a report generated by a holistic approach, I believe!

However, Gambling addiction is a mental disorder as recognized by World Health organization. There are various ways to treat that disorder. But this particular disorder is not so common like cough and cold and that's why you can't simple walk in to your nearest physician's clinic to get the remedy!

The major challenge is to understand that someone has this disorder. Once identified correctly, it can be treated with proper psychiatric guidance. If I have enough power and if I see that this issue is going out of control in a particular region, I would probably arrange for free counselling sessions for each addicted gamblers. But that is highly unlikely!

I don't agree with the research that gambling effects young mind and people only, as in my experience it's the aged seniors who're often playing and are addicted more to gambling. While it's true gambling does creates excitement in the mind of young gamblers, but they're able to get out of it. However when you look at seniors these're people who're constantly addicted and are often seen playing huge bets be it land based casinos or online ones.

Also you do not get merits for posting links, improve your language skills, participate more in discussions if people like your post naturally then they'll give you merits.
Maybe most of the time experienced by young people and little experienced by parents, today is where the development of highly developed technology is now widely used by young people, it is true that there are so many young people there who are very vulnerable to addiction, they still unstable and sometimes still not having a good attitude, they are still chasing pleasure without thinking about the effects that will occur on young people at an early age, they are not ready to anticipate everything.

Maybe it is people who are not smart in utilizing technological progress, so that it goes into negative things that are not good, but many young people are advancing in a more useful or positive field, I do not consider it all bad.

Young people who have been trapped in gambling will find it difficult to break away, although gambling does not have a direct impact on health and body but gambling addiction can damage the mental and psychological effects that can have a negative impact on the surrounding environment, the way to quit addictions is very difficult, must come from each individual's self, such as changing mindset and lifestyle.

I certainly would not say the data is bullshit but greed is just one thing that obviously has dominated the minds of so many gamblers.
Also, it is not everyone who has the information you have as some people tend to go into gambling without even understanding the effects gambling could have on them, if they do not tend to take some precautions. No one can solve this except the gamblers themselves.

If you want to gamble, understand that it is a game of luck and never put your entire mind towards trying to achieve something you obviously cannot achieve from gambling which is trying to make money. There are better ways to make money than gambling.

Gambling can affect anyone, I believe it's just that online gambling and casino gambling have different target audience. In 1996, the biggest social group of Las Vegas gamblers (22%) was over 65 years old (https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/gamble/etc/facts.html). The statistics on the casino visitors in the US show that the 33% of people are aged between 50 and 64, while 79% are more than 35 years old (https://www.statista.com/statistics/188424/percentage-distribution-of-casino-visitors-in-the-us-by-age-2010/). However, if we take a look at UK online gambling statistics for 2018, the biggest social group is aged between 25 and 34, which can qualify as late youth, I guess. But that's gambling, not gambling addiction. I think it is hard to conduct proper research on addiction, especially with young people involved. There are some researchers claiming that young people are more emotional and thus develop an addiction often than adults, while others maintain that gambling addiction doesn't depend on age.

Maybe the young people think that they can make money from gambling because they see that many people still playing gambling without stop and perhaps they are curious about this and getting try to playing gambling. But I don't think that all of the young people try to playing gambling because I believe that there are the young people that will stay away from gambling games and they better do the other thing that can give them the positive impact. And I agree that playing gambling cannot solve their financial problem and even they can ruin their lives too in the short time and in a long time.
