Topic: Gambling by financial dependents. - page 19. (Read 4204 times)
Gambling should be considered as nothing but an entertainment.Your nephew is at primary level of gambling, so how can you consider him as responsible gambler cause he didn’t stole money doesn’t mean he won't do it in future. Gambling is like a drug, teen gamblers often done unusually activities while they are out of money. So advice him, only spend some percent for gambling from his saving and play for entertainment only. Gambling for financial dependents is only suit for professionals only. it is better for a normal Gambler to have other income source and enjoy gambling with extra saving

Most likely students are getting their allowance from their parents and if that was the case, then they are not allowed to use the money that is entrusted to them because it's not really appropriate for children to waste their money just because they are getting it freely from their parents. They don't understand how hard was it to earn such an amount of money and they are just wasting it overnight and in the morning they ask for more. That's why they shouldn't be allowed teenagers to play and they should be strict with it.
In the OP's story, this teenager is gambling with his savings. plus, the weekly money he gets from his family. In fact, this teenager is only 18+ and doesn't understand many things about life. even at his age, gambling was legalized. however, ideally he would be better off doing other activities. In the end, this teenager relied on the weekly money he received, with the alibi that he had savings.
I don't want to judge someone by their gambling, but at an age that is still very vulnerable and unstable, the side effects will be very bad for their development. At this age, it will be difficult for us to know whether this boy is truly responsible with his gambling. let alone those who are still teenagers, we as adults have quite a hard time dealing with issues of responsibility. in particular, those dealing with gambling. which in the end, as you said. this teenager has the potential to squander the money he gets from his weekly allotment. they have the potential to spend money in one night on gambling, at a very young age, self-control, understanding and responsibility, unlike what mature men understand. So, in OP's story, it's only natural that parents feel worried about their children.
Gambling is like an addiction that once you get addicted you can never quit so people who like to gamble daily don't worry about capital. Moreover, gambling is more rewarding for those who have huge amounts of money. You probably know that gambling is a game where you can suddenly become rich and then suddenly become poor. Many poor people sell their possessions to raise money for gambling and also steal. However you can gamble if you don't have money crisis.
Anyone who started gambling is like someone who started smoking at the main it will be enjoyable but as time goes you started seeing the effects (the bad side of gambling) but when trying to stop it will creates more harm to him because as then he might gotten routed in the system.That's why we must not even allowed our children to start practicing gambling, because whatever makes them to step in could results to another dangerous harm.
I agree. Even he's already in legal age to gamble, the point is, he's still depending on his parents financially and the money given is meant for his studies and not for leisure.
Thus, it's normal for parents to be worried if they became aware that their son is into gambling. Therefore, an advice of looking for a side job is better rather than relying on his mother's given allowance. This way, the son can have a budget if he wants to entertain himself through gambling.

When I reached the age of majority, I could provide for myself, in which case you begin to look at money with a completely different responsibility. Of course, I tried different strategies in gambling at this time, because I was looking for a way to get rich quick, but I did it with extreme caution and worried even about losing small amounts on a loss. So it is possible that when a teenager starts earning money on his own, then his responsibility in gambling will be higher.
Lastly, I honestly don't think there's any strategy that can increase the odds of winning, that's just nonsense, and if that were true it would mean a lot of people getting rich but the fact is you probably also know that the rich get poor and the poor get poorer, that's gambling. So the bottom line is don't expect anything from gambling except fun, because it's purely about luck.
that it gives on which it would really be just that normal that you would really be winning but majority of the time you would be losing up money specially if you are really that dealing against with the house.
Its true that once you do make yourself that get involved with poker or blackjack which it does really needing up that skills and experience the it is really that something a part of gambling which you would really be making use of your experience for your upperhand but since everything could really be still that random specially on pulling those cards then luck would really be still a huge or main factor.
Basing up on the condition or situation based up on op then it would really be just that simple on which as a parent and seeing his son/children does have that kind of gambling addiction and tends to deny
on being that addicted one but spending that much then it would really be that just right to lessen up his allowance and speaks about the main reason which it might help for him to
realize on the wrong thing that hes been doing.
Well, that's another way to see it, and I think that you are right and your case repeats in many cases when teenagers have to face the real world when they reach the majority. Unfortunately, not all of them will be as responsible as you were or we may think, and for the parents who suffer something like that it has to be a difficult situation to handle. Because their son is free to do what he wants, and some of them will do the wrong thing. That's why education at a young age is the best prevention.

If this guy is a student, he has little life experience and is unlikely to realize that the most precious thing a person can have is his parents, brothers, sisters, spouses and children. I believe that if your behavior or activity affects their psychological health, then you need to find a way to stop negatively affecting them. In my opinion the option of this guy hiding his gambling habits from his mother would be much better than her constant worrying.
And I presume the man hid his gambling habit so no one would know what he was doing. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the short route to end it all. This is a lesson for all of us always to supervise and pay attention to our children who are starting to grow up so that they do not get involved in things that have a bad impact on them.

Children shouldn't be allowed near gambling before a certain age but parents nowadays don't really care about these things, they don't even supervise their children after providing them with all kinds of facilities like electronic devices and internet connections and everything else they might need for gambling or being able to gamble. If they have a device with internet access and has money and also know how to access gambling platforms, what can stop them?
The only thing that can stop children from getting involved in such things is the regular supervision of the parents. They shouldn't allow them to always stay locked in their rooms and do whatever they want without even checking their devices to see what they do on them, such children will surely get spoiled.
This may seem complicated for parents who are busy and have jobs, let alone busy doing business, so they rarely see their children and are never involved in anything their children do. I agree with that that children should be prohibited from gambling before they reach the right age. relatively mature, let's say they can make money from work, not from their parents' money.The only thing that can stop children from getting involved in such things is the regular supervision of the parents.

At least when gambling with the results of your work or your own money, I think it's a sign of maturity, it's difficult to supervise children in this technological age where everything can be accessed just using a cellphone, the most important thing is that they must be taught responsibility where what they do will always be there. risky, because to ban him from gambling would usually bring his curiosity to try it.
Technology has their own advantage, Restricting some possible actions in the devices of your children is possible nowadays. I wonder if there's an application that can block known websites that shouldn't be accessed by minors like casinos.

The gambling age in my country is 18+, but his mother is insisting that he must stop. What will be your advice for this young boy?

I think that it is a bit late to worry about it. I mean, I don't think overprotection will be the best solution for an adult. The only way to help would've been to educate him about gambling habits when he was younger and unable to play, and teach him some fundamentals so he understands that bets are not a reasonable business or investment, but leisure and it costs money.
Again, it has already been too late, as for sure he already tastes the gambling feeling and is always wanting it. Also, right now, I would say he is already a big boy, and somewhat the way you disciplined that boy before is not working, so it would be better to talk about him seriously and have a sit-down with him about the risks of gambling to him and to people around him. Tell him the story about other people who got addicted to it and how it ruined their lives.

In my opinion the option of this guy hiding his gambling habits from his mother would be much better than her constant worrying.
I would advise this guy to quit gambling and save his mother's psychological health, or to find a part-time job and spend the money he earns as he sees fit. In this case, the guy will have a job and his mother will not worry.

In fact, the issue is much more acute than it seems at first glance. The student's mother is worried about what gambling can lead to for her son, because he has no regular income, and she is well aware that gambling requires money.

It is good when relatives know what you are into and watch for changes in your behavior.

It is not bad for eighteen years old person to gamble and I think that is the qualified age that many gambling companies are using but the main problem now is that the boy is still a student which have not started earning expect to rely on his mother,which I can say is big problem because when it become addicted and he don't have money with him, it can make attempts to gave it in others which can illegal ways. So I will just advise is her to tell him to stop gambling.
By many state laws, 18years of age is a proper age to allow for certain decisions and activities as a person. Once you’re 18 years of age, you’re backed by law on so many grounds as well as you would be prosecuted by those laws in the event that you’re found wanting in a crime.There is a reason why the 18year of age was picked and that’s because, it’s been averaged as the age where one could have the least success with making good decisions and do they, well, that’s persons specific.
Gambling isn’t a crime and neither is it a crime when you gamble as a student or use your parents funds. It just happens that your not being fair to yourself and parent or guardian should you be gambling based on what is been provided for you to carter for your education. That’s outrightly wrong on all counts.
If gambling has become a habit, then we cannot force someone easily to stop or refrain it from doing. Sometimes the best revenue for that is to educate that person so that he will never gamble without caution. That simply means that he should also gamble with his own budget, and if ever he’ll lose all his budget, then call it a day.
Students nowadays are most likely to be exposed in gambling since it’s only a one click away. And since we can’t do nothing about this as this is part of their growth on how they adopt this new revolution, at least we should learn to educate them instead and always give them reminders not to fall for gambling addiction. And that they should only gamble at a moderate level, by not compromising their studies.
