Topic: Gambling Education. (Read 712 times)
Kind of valid point IMHO. But sex education need for living & for awareness specially among children cause such thing is sensitive more than gambling. But when it comes to gambling, i saw children also fond of playing games but those aren't gambling at all. But there is always possibility for children who could involve in gambling if they don't have proper education. Here family & guardian could play vital role for the solution, they should teach their child the negative side of gambling and never do gambling in front of them, even should take care their all activities. Moreover, gambling education could be add as a lesson in institutions for additional knowledge as op said, i agreed
Gambling education was not the compulsory one,but every gambler will have the attitude of teaching their children with good intentions.Because the children will learn the gambling in any way after their 18 years.If the gambling parents teach their children with all the strategy move used by them.Then the kid of the gambler will be in the one step forward at the same age of the gambling.If the parent teaches,then the kid will not get addicted to the gambling site.The gambler parent should said this to their children.
Children get real education from parents in life. It is true that gambling parents will not learn to gamble if their children are good at everything from the beginning. There is no substitute for the love and closeness of parents in the mental development of a child. Children thrive in their lives by watching their parents when the child realizes that the parent is attracted to his gambling a negative reaction is created in his brain. If they know everything in advance they are good at creative thinking and the relationship with parents is also very friendly.It’s true that parents can give a huge influence for a children to gamble since they are supposed to be a role model for their children. But there’s some instances which children can still learn to gamble even without the parents influence. The community sometimes can influence children to gamble if most people surrounding the child is involved in gambling due to the natural curiosity of people.
Gambling is very addictive in nature that’s why it’s very easy to become attracted on it because it gives you an opportunity to increase your money just by playing games. Commonly people doesn’t think about risk of losing once they are new to gambling that’s why children is the typical victim of gambling once no one supervise them.
Generally, kids are influence and mold by what is in their environment and that includes their parents. Its why its advised not to not let your kids see you gambling. they'd think its fine to do it as well.
But I think its not parents guilt when the kid learn it from someone else. But at least the kid didn't learn it from the parents. Kids learning to gamble at such early stage will also learn to value money when he grows up.

How strange it is that parents will teach everything they are good at, to their children, but they may not tell/teach their children about gambling as most parents would not want their kids to be involved in gambling. Even if the parents are good at making money through gambling, still they will want their children to stay away from gambling.
Why is this behavior of the parents towards their children? and due to this reason, we never hear any child learn gambling from their parents. they usually get to know and learn about it, through their friends etc.
Thats such an weird statement. It's like saying, "Even if parents are great chefs, they still want their kids to avoid cooking." Perhaps it's just a case of wanting the best for their kids and wanting to steer them away from risky stuff. After all, "Don't gamble, sweetie, the odds are stacked against you," is probably a more common refrain than, "Here's how to double down on a hard 16."

You're correct but don't you think teaching them this things individually will help them to understand them better as they'll learn them one by one than when you combined everything in Money management to teach them. Most of this individual aren't financially educated and they're newbies when it comes to the subject of money. To avoid confusing them or giving them too much information that they can't process, teaching them one after another might have more success.
What you are saying is like Band-aid instead of suture which may work or may not but why we have to take that risk and just start from the root cause that will eliminate the confusion of many issues at once and we can expect the changes in the society in a decade or two but if you are going to teach one by one then it will take a decade for one issue then it's a never-ending sotry.The countries that prohibit gambling has a reason for doing that, it might be religious reasons just like the Muslim countries not permitting it
Gambling is prohibited in Christianity too, but they can teach about it in the banned countries too then only they will realize why they banned it in the first place. Banning something outright will provoke something among the people and it will lead them into the underworld casinos which has no rules and policies.
Reproductive health and the spreading of STI/STDs and AIDS is a much more pressing concern than gambling addiction if you look at it in a bigger scale. Gambling addiction doesn't need a lot of time allotted so you can learn the basic stuff, one period of your economics or business class is probably enough to learn what you need to know about gambling so establishment of an educational program that's focused on gambling is tad bit delusional especially trying to justify it by saying there's sex education then how come gambling education's not a thing?
I think gambling education really needs to happen. I know someone who went into it without any knowledge at the time and lost almost everything. It is a sad situation for him, but if he had been educated at the time, he could have reduced his risk and not lost all his money. Many people may have lost a lot of money, perhaps uneducated and uninformed. Although there is no education for everything, there should at least be a system that teaches that one can adjust one's own risk and take bets accordingly. Otherwise, when we look at it the other way around, everyone learns from their circle of friends in some way, but it is necessary to question exactly how much knowledge you can have with this learning.
I don't agree with that because I believe that if you are a grown-up, you have been hearing about gambling throughout your life and you already know that there is only a 50% chance of you winning a bet most of the time, and it then depends on the odds you choose but you get the general idea that you don't just win but there is losing as well in gambling, and then you still go in and lose a lot of money in it and then you say that it was because you weren't educated about it then I find that being a mere excuse.Gambling education should be for children, and those young guys who are new to practical life, they might have heard about gambling but they don't know much about it and they don't have any real-life experience with it, so they can learn and know that it is something that can be financially and mentally harmful for someone if they get addicted to it.
Gambling education will teach the young ones the dangers of gambling and promote moderation in gambling. Will this not be a better way to handle the gambling cases?
It's possible that they will listen to their teachers but this is like introduction than prevention. A lot of things play in my mind but an actual scenario and test or case study will prove if it will.So in my opinion, gambling education is actually very inappropriate, let it be the job of parents at home to provide guidance for their children to understand the dangers of gambling and stay away from it because it can cause addiction and harm themselves.
Instead of outrightly banning gambling, how about if the concerned countries officially include gambling education in their academic syllabus, just like sex education is taught in schools. Gambling education will teach the young ones the dangers of gambling and promote moderation in gambling. Will this not be a better way to handle the gambling cases?
It is a good idea and the government should do that but it's not a guarantee that the educated gambler will not get himself into addiction, addiction victimizes many people regardless of their race, profession, or educational attainment, I even read about gambling counselors getting into addiction.
The government will always look at the data if they see an abnormal surge they will take action and ban gambling even if there are group and school counseling about gambling addiction.
The government cannot tolerate a high number of people going into addiction, because the morale of their society is going down, a high number of addicted gamblers means the crime rate will be high, crime is always associated with addiction and the government must stop it.
Many countries prohibit gambling, to the extent that they do not licence any casino in their country. This however did not completely prevent the citizens of such countries from gambling. They go extra miles by using hidden or rerouted IP addresses to gamble. Even when the casinos block these users they keep attempting to cheat both their country's law and the casino.
Also, many countries have official gambling age but their citizens also violate this age standard.
All these abnormal ways of gambling promote gambling abuse and possible addiction which further makes gambling a societal menace.

I have said that many times already, instead of educating people about gambling, investing, importance of spending on the things they need why not just educate themselves about money in the first place which is the root cause of all the other thousand problems we can address today.
People who don't have any idea about the significance of money management is the key to financial independency are the ones who spend money on things they actually don't need so instead of addressing every problem just create awareness about money and let them handle how they want to spend their hard-earned money. Guess what governments won't do that cause if they do then people will be asking questions whenever the print money out of thin air which they never want to take the risk.
Why not impart the true value of money management? Isn't money management the key to financial independence? If people understood this, wouldn't they think twice about buying unnecessary items? A thought worth considering...
Your point regarding governments? It's a can of worms, right? If everyone understood money, its creation, and its effects, wouldn't governments be more accountable? A question that needs asking. Will it ever be answered? Only time will tell...
The countries that prohibit gambling has a reason for doing that, it might be religious reasons just like the Muslim countries not permitting it and teaching them gambling education will be of no use because the government wants them to have nothing to do with gambling because gambling can be very addictive when done wrongly.
In several Muslim countries it is certain that there will be a ban because of religion and also because of other things, in my country almost the majority of Muslims are so large that my country prohibits gambling, many ISPs block gambling sites and there are also ISPs that don't block them, actually I have never felt that It's difficult to gamble and use a VPN, I prefer to use an ISP that doesn't block gambling.Actually, gambling cannot be stopped because every gambler always has a way to access it using VPN and the method I use, even though it is prohibited, my country does not punish gamblers and players, except for influencers who promote gambling, usually they will be prosecuted according to the law. Moreover, gambling has a bad effect on the nation's future generations or minors, maybe that is also one of the reasons why gambling is illegal in my country.

I think instead of focusing on gambling addiction, schools should have like a mandatory subject talking about the dangers of any kind of addiction which teaches them to do things in moderation.
Having a designated subject primarily for gambling addiction only can be both a boon and a bane- it can be a boon where it can teach students to be more careful with their decision into not trying gambling at all; and it can be a bane when curiosity sparks with these students for them to try it.
In conclusion, I highly recommend that in the early levels of education, students are being educated on the dangers of being addicted to a certain activity so that it can be an all encompassing lesson that applies to every addiction.
I think most gambler knows the side effect of gambling but still, they are gambling. Though there is no way to stop gambling addiction this type of education may make a lower number of gambling addicts few people may stay away from gambling for such an education.

There's no need for Gambling education just to teach society the pros and cons of gambling.
Everything about how to become a responsible gamber can just be taught to ourselves automatically without the need for separate education just only for that.
The problem is not the gambling itself but the person itself. I don't see why the country should allow that gambling education just for the sake of these people not turning into a gambler. Persons have different life status. Even there's a gambling education, it will just be treat just an ordinary subject by young ones. They will be even more eager to gamble if a main discussion about gambling will always be teach to them.
