Quote from: ?? on ??

Young people usually have hard time manage their emotion and have identity crisis. They will look for ways to solve their problem which could lead to negative things such as gambling, drugs and other kind of addiction.
Besides, most people especially young people usually don't think about potential problem or end result which makes gambling as something good.

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

Actively ask ISP to blocks all casino website, shutdown all physical casinos and forbid all activity that could be considered as gambling including video games loot-boxes/micro-transaction. While they could find way to bypass ISP blocks, i'm sure only people who've gambled before and addicted would go that far.

If you suspect that a loved one is addicted to gambling you do not need your ISP to block those websites you can do it yourself and block those sites in your computer or your router, most people do not have the technical knowledge to avoid the measures that you set up so they will be unable to access those websites but the issue is that now the world is filled with computers so unless they have a desire to stop gambling those measures are not going to work.

Because eventually they are going to find a way to avoid the steps you have taken by using a different computer and you will back at square one, so at best those steps can be used to gain time and nothing more but it is worth the try if you are desperate to help a friend.

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.

We all know the level at which young people have some level of exuberance ruling over them and then being exposed at that age when things are actually not supposed to be in that lane for them, we always get to find out that a lot of times; they tend to make bad decisions. It is just more like being exposed to certain hard substances as well.

I understand this is something that can cut across all age though, if you tend to have the wrong mindset, but as a result of maturity, we know younger people tend to make the worst decisions most of the time. It is better to not even get them exposed to it than trying to remind them the issues at stake.

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

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.

As long as kids have access to cryptocurrencies and their parent's credit/debit cards they will be gambling on their own even without their parent's consent. The problem I see here is that online gambling isn't as much as monitored as the gambling happening in casinos where you need to show your id every time you are suspected as underage. In online gambling you only have to click that you are above 18 years old without even verifying that you are one, this makes kids have a highly accessible way in gambling.

I believe the parents might need to monitor and ask the kids about the usage of their credit cards, if their kids are always maxing out the credit cards spending limits to purchase crypto-currencies, this might be a strong indication that they are seriously addicted to gambling, and they might need serious help to curb their gambling addiction.

Why they should monitor and control them. How the mobile apps and games are there to use even same like that gambling is the kind of option to make the young generation with the full of entertainment but one thing you need to spare the money and ready to take a risk.

When you ready to gamble you does not need to see the what is the age of the user and all. I see most of the site ask the age confirmation before you get into the gambling site. So family is responsible for finding what children are doing.

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.

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.

Internet has actually exposed kids to a lot of things and it would take some inbuilt discipline and principle to not get caught up in it as a youth. Young people today are already getting exposed hugely to things they should not be getting exposed to and for the fact that they always tend to find it hard at times, when it comes to making good decisions about their life at that age, the likelihood of seeing them doing things that would affect them will always be there most of the time.

Addiction is something that starts with the state of the mind and that state of the mind as a result of youthful exuberance is something that usually goes wrong. Moreover we cannot expect an addiction to lead a person for performing some big achievement but being as a neutral man is also not possible after got addicted.

I didn't read the article anymore because I know already the answer. INTERNET. The internet is the main factor why most young people are getting addicted into gambling. Everyday, there are many people who are browsing the web and there is a chance that they can see things related to gambling and they got curious and they will try it and..... you know what will happen. Most likely, he/she will be addicted or not.

For me, the best solution that I'm thinking is abstinence. Don't put yourself in gambling. Don't try gambling or you will be getting addicted.

Sometimes it's good to gamble because it will help us release the stress, as long as you consider it as an entertainment, you will be safe.
However, our emotions changes from time to time and we might not notice that we got addicted already as human nature, we always want to win.
The reality is, casinos are getting richer and richer, which means gamblers are losing.

Yeah I agree with you that gambling can release the stress of a certain person but for me, there are some things that I can do just to release my stress. Playing games, sleeping or playing sports are the things I do if I feel I'm stressed.

Emotions can change anytime if we are gambling. If we win a few times, we can become greedy and will gamble more because we know that there is a high chance that we can win.

Casino owners are getting richer. I think instead of the gamblers to gamble in the casinos, what if they will just build their own casino so that they can earn too while gambling Cheesy

It's simple. People do not have such emotions in their real life.

People have discipline in life will play either just for fun or will realize soon that it is better not to lose money in gambling unless you are super rich and does effect losing few thousand dollars. Also addiction rate is super high in gambling as it involves money so this also helps people to get addicted easily if they cannot control emotions.

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.

There are so many reasons for that, and I think that the main reason is unemployment. Mot of the young people when they completed their study searching for a job, after some time when they become dishearten they start playing gambling which they consider as the shortest way of making money.

Why they treat gambling is a source of making money or the fastest way that's not a good idea spending your time gamble your money and get nothing.
If they are a student they should change their habits and change their priority to study first before doing anything else.

Gamble is not good for a student because it can affect their study habit that can result in gambling addiction until they can lose a big amount of money and study.

Teenager are easier to be seduce rather than adult one because they still think with emotion and never think the result that may be happen.
Of course this is endless reaction that always happen as long as gambling industry exist.

All we can do is self control and family support

Lol gambling is part of the world since the old ages,before people learn many things ,gambling is already here and even the bible speaks on how those guards gambled about The lors dress so what we can expect?

Addiction in gambling is peoples choice and we cannot do anything about stopping this,why not just do your homework and dont bother making this as your problem when what you only need is Merit lol

People think like that until addiction happens to someone they care about, gambling addiction can be very dangerous since most of the time it is invisible and you cannot see the results of the addiction until it is too late and the addicted person begins to use almost all his money to maintain his addiction, this is why you need to keep an eye on your loved ones, it is not strange to find that people are addicted to their smartphones and the addiction has become so common that we do not even notice it anymore.

But there are some that are not addicted to their smartphones and instead are addicted to gambling online through their smartphones, so try to look for signs that something is wrong and if you can warn about the dangers of becoming addicted not only to illegal substances but to behaviours that are not healthy.

And already late to realize that, human.

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.

Yeah we have the same observation mate,as this is what I’ve always observed whenever i go to the casino ,i use to see many older or mature people before but nowadays the trend goes the other way and itsmore youngsters what you find in gambling places,like here in my region when there’s supposedly older people that plays local gamblings

But now,i find younger versions specially in card games and the local chicken or cockfighting,in which younger generation is dominating.things thats not common for me and maybe for many people here

This may be the good sign for the casino or gambling site owner as young people would keep playing till they won money and may get addicted easily as compared to matured people. On other hand as a society if you consider it is a alarming sign that youngster are now getting more into gambling at very young age which could even threaten a society at some point of time if things continue this way for too long.

IMO young people tend to be more addicted in gambling because in this young age,they always wanted to explore new things especially those that involves money.But unfortunately,these young people cannot control their own emotions so they end up being addicted just like in gambling.

Whether young people can control their emotions better or worse than adults is a big question. Imo adults with their weakened nervous system may perform much worse in that regard. Besides, young people tend to think of themselves as of better versions of their ancestors, and in this case they have an opportunity to prove that they are really better if they will not become addicted to gambling as it happened to their older relatives.

I just about us, controlling our selves is a must and gambling isn't bad, it may help us to relieve our stress after whole day work. But it depends upon on the people, for me, after work while I am relaxing I open my laptop and play gambling it makes me asleep after I while I'm gambling. Chasing loss might cause addiction in a gambling, so relax and have control over emotion.
