With the growing of the internet, I am sure that younger people don't have any trouble to visit the restricted website and it's not just for gambling but for the other website. The younger people can have internet access everywhere, and it makes some of them curious about the new things and makes them visit the gambling site and searching the other games on the other sites. Besides that, the gambling site is growing too and trying to attract more visitor to come and play in their site.
Internet is giving us more opportunities  and gambling is one of them. With the help of annoying commercial and attractive suggestions of free spin of gambling sites it is just impossible to not try it at least once.

Yes, with a good internet connection, I am sure that the younger people can access any website without problem. But I don't use to search and to play gambling because I know that I need to explore a ways from the internet about how to makes money, so I don't waste my time by having fun only. I suggest to my friends who are the younger people that they don't need to playing gambling in every day, but they can use their time to search for valuable things that could bring something good for their life.

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.

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


We cannot control their mind, that's why gambling addiction is still increasing. Maybe they just love to take risk and afterwards become addicted. Playing gambling is not about how we believe to those article, we still doing what we wanted even if we all know the bad result of it.

Surprising... because from what I am seeing, the interest in gambling is going down. I agree that online gambling is now accounting for a larger market share, but if you take the overall gambling industry, it is having a negative growth.

That's why my government forbid bitcoin gambling because just like OP said that gambling attacking our young generation.
Since our people can't control themself and they are not open minded just like Europe, our government really take an action against gambling and crypto gambling.
If some country able tolarate bitcoin gambling industry , it means that they capable to understand their behavior against gambling !

It depends what gambling. I think that the interest in online gambling is going up and with some countries trying to ban or limit the availability of gambling sites the need for anonymous gambling with cryptocurrencies is growing even more.
I think that it is targeting young people more than it did in the old days. They can assume a fake identity and start gambling from home even before they turn 18.

But once a person got involved in gambling, it will be hard not to 'abuse' it. Even though for example we just gamble for entertainment, the chance to be obsessed by gambling is big especially for the young people.

This is what young people hate to hear most of all, when something is dangerous "especially" for their age. In most cases after hearing something like that they immediately try to engage with the subject in question, be it sex, drugs, alcohol or gambling. If we want to prevent young people from gambling addiction, we should try to speak their language, not the language they hate. Young people, starting from the age of 13-14 are no longer kids any more and if something is dangerous for them to do, it is equally dangerous for adults either. Is it bad for someone to become a gambling addict? Yes, definitely it is. But this is relevant to everyone regardless of their age.

Base on my observation, there are more gambling sites that are being created. People are spending at approx. 2-3 hours on the internet or social media. Some spend even more hours.

Online gambling is too easy to use. Just go online deposit some money thru your smartphone and you can gamble now. Its easy now to gamble since there is online now. Getting addicted into gambling is now easier because many can have access to gambling. For me, to prevent young peoppe into getting addicted into it they must know the consequences if they try to gamble.

Gambling is indeed more popular among young people. especially at this time many gambling uses online features, from betting and money used for online transactions. so that nowadays gambling is done more by young people.

I think this is why gambling become more popular among the young people because right now, they can play gambling without anyone knows and they can play at anywhere. And if they cannot control their emotion in the gambling game, then they will have a chance to become addicting in gambling, and like the old people who are in the gambling, they can lose their money too. We need to remind them to stay away from the gambling or at least we can tell them to use small money as the bets, so they don't have lost too much money in the gambling game.
Thats right, right now gambling is not as difficult as it used to be, right now you can gamble with anyone, without any age restrictions, without identity and without other people knowing, by gambling online, nowadays there are so many online gambling sites that you can find, especially internet users most of them are young people, of course they will be very easy to access gambling sites

It is just because of the greed for money. Everyone in this world needs money but the problem is that now young people choose the wrong way for making money. They should understand that gambling is not for making money, but it will take all your money in just a few minutes. The consequences of gambling are very bad and destructive.

Of course everyone needs money to feed their stomachs but that would mean a liberal society where everything is allowed and everything is decriminalized.
Does that sound as a proper healthy system to live in? Definitely not. Thats why people have to go to work earn a living and then spend their money as they want. Gambling if they wish is a part of their choices and these choices is what shapes their lives.

People do realize that in the young age they may have acted impulsively and taken wrong decisions but there is always time to redeem those mistakes and start anew.
Well said, that how things should take place and even if we are young, we should not be afraid of committing mistakes as that will teach us lessons.
Gambling is not bad after all since it could give entertainment, if we abuse it, that's where the bad consequences will come, so regardless of our age or status in life, we should not consider gambling a way to make money, instead think of the opposite.

Since many young people are using the internet around the world, there is a high chance that they encounter how to gamble or anything related to it and they will be curious about it. Young players can gamble anytime they want since it is been done online and if they lose, they will get their lost again and there is a chance that they will get addicted if they are winning consecutive times in a row. I think young people must know what are the effects of gambling into our lives. They must be knowledgeable with regards to gambling.

There are much more of the articles criticizing gambling than of those promoting it. Info on possible bad effects of gambling in general and on horrible consequences of gambling addiction in particular is not some secret kept from the young. In fact they can hear and read about it constantly, only they mostly ignore it because it is poorly put. Young people hate it when they here, "do not ever do this" or "abstinent from that". They hate it to such a degree that they can start doing something just out from spite, even if they weren't going to do that at all. In short, if we want less young people becoming gambling addicts we shouldn't repeat the same stupid warnings over and over again because this can make things only worse.

Because younger people are much exposed to negative things now compared before. Our culture is also different and the source of information can be acquire anywhere using different types of technology. With this, younger people has more advantage and gambling is the one they have learn through this.

It is true that most of today's addicted people are the young ones because we all know that the young ones are the one who are most exposed to todays negative things. Young ones are the one who spend their time playing games, playing outside and worst is playing gambling. They didn't think of the consequences they may take. I believe that parent's must be aware on this to help their children and guide them.
We all very much know that young people are very much addicted to gambling but we should first ask why young people are gambling in the first place, In my country lack of jobs have driven the youth to gambling and even underage kids are even gambling.
New generation is going on very wrong side. There is no brotherhood and humanity in today’s young people. They just need money and for that they want to choose the shortest way and online gambling provides then this opportunity. Mostly students play online games for gambling. Their elders do not know what are they doing in their rooms and this is wrong.
It is just because of the greed for money. Everyone in this world needs money but the problem is that now young people choose the wrong way for making money. They should understand that gambling is not for making money, but it will take all your money in just a few minutes. The consequences of gambling are very bad and destructive.

That also maybe a reason why they are getting addicted to gambling because they have their smartphones at their hand so they may be interested to make some money through gambling but they are not going to have lot of money to spend for gambling so they even they get addicted to ot they may not much affected in terms of economically.
Well technology has its good and bad effect, not to mention all inventions of science has its boon and bane. Its on the person who is using it to decide how to use them and what to take advantage of or let the bad things take over them. Considering young people, I dont expect someone from a middle-class family to be having cash always at hand unless they are already in a job, in which case nobody is going to judge them or they are coming a rich family with a lot of money to "waste". But since they are adults they are responsible for their own money.

Either way it always the rich remain rich and poor remain poor. So even if they do waste gambling, the only people who are in profit are the casino owners and not the players.

It doesn't have any age preference, every age has its own gambling preference so I don't think there should be "more" popular.

Go to the casino's where you can find prominent people spending their wealth and time after working hard with their entire life.

It is true that you will find people of all ages but this days youngster are getting easily attracted to it and mostly online this youngster are the one who prefer it as they can gamble anytime from anywhere and instead of making money would be losing lot of money.

Youngsters are very proactive with any activity and they are the age that can be addicted easily.

But addiction doesn't really any have choice of age.

Yes, you are right, and I agree with you. The youngster has a big curiosity about something new, and they have a big passion for learning until they know everything. And it's happening too with gambling; they learn how to make money from gambling, they finally understand how it feels when they lose all the money. And if we don't take attention to them, then we might lose them too, and they can be addicted to gambling without any chance to leave the gambling games.

Yes gambling is now popular to all young people especially online.They becoming addict to because you fine online everywhere.Maybe this is not easy to stop because they are free to do what they want.
That also maybe a reason why they are getting addicted to gambling because they have their smartphones at their hand so they may be interested to make some money through gambling but they are not going to have lot of money to spend for gambling so they even they get addicted to ot they may not much affected in terms of economically.

I don't agree. I always see more elderly. people in casinos.
The reason is that new generation spends most of their time in computer and online gambling provides them the facility to gamble from their bedroom. Now there is no need to go outside for gambling and the elders will also never know about their gambling. That’s why the number of youngsters increases day by day. They do not understand what they are doing.

Yes, they can play gambling by secretly without anyone know and if they played for a long time then they have a chance to be addicting in gambling and we need to worry about them. So for people who have teenagers, watching your kids and don't let them in their bedroom for a long time and talk to them or discuss anything so they can open mind for something that is not for them.

The elderly people you see in casinos are more likely to have control over their expenses and have not much use for their money. And the daring of youth most of the time makes them prone to being excessive in things that interest them.
Yeah you are right and the reason is online gambling. Now everyone can gamble from his bedroom without the fear of their elders. In many countries gambling is assumed as an evil thing and negatively treated therefore they do not allow their youngers to gamble. They know the consequences of gambling and nobody wants to see their youngers ruining. 
It is simple to understand why young people become addicted of gambling. The reason is online gambling. Parents do not know what their child is doing in his room, and it is the bad thing in online gambling that you can play from your bedroom. It brings easiness for regular gamblers but also destruction for young people. It could not be stopped anyway.
