I went to store to buy a toy for my kid and I was surprised to see this "toy"

What surprised me was that "+8" sign. While gambling is not allowed for persons under 18, toys like this are pretty much allowed.

In my honest opinion that sign should be "+18" and no one should be allowed to sell this to kids.

I mean, seriously? Would you buy this for your kid?

Seriously? Da hell I will not buy it even for a single cent for my kids. Gambling isnt right for the children to know when they are young. I personally thought that this is made in china the first i saw it. This must not be tolerate and report it to the government.

Who would want to spoil their kids if the father is gambler and he wants to pass on his gambling legacy to his son the father and son can nicely practice on this game to prepare his son for the future. I have seen games like this in past but we cam not bring up the topic of money while playing this with our kids the creators surely thought this as an monopoly game

I really don't see a problem here. Kids gamble all the time with their games, and even make bets with each other all the time, so it's exactly the same. Also, kids can play monopoly and strip other users from all their houses and money and the goal is to put others to bankruptcy, so how can that be better than that game?

I don't see a problem here neither , as you said kids can be gambling without their parents knowledge over many things , even who will beat who at the cafeteria fight or which basketball player will score more in NBA .. Other games are more devilish that will make them hate each other !
Monopoly itself ruined so many friendships Cheesy

If i know my kid will gamble sooner or later in life , why not teach him and make sure he won't get ruined and go bankrupt in the future ? why not make him good at that game so he can get some money later in life from it ? Why not store morals in him from his young age about this "taboo" subject and make sure he won't go "YOLO" with this thing ?

I think betting on those street fights and putting some amount on sports games is not equal to this roulette game. That kind of gambling is common in that age even we also did that kind of gambling when we are kids. But that time I don't know what this roulette game and other slot games in gambling. That will not make them to addict to gambling. But the slots games are very dangerous the kids very quickly addicted to these games.

This is wrong toy to gift to a child although its just a toy and no real gain/loss is acquired playing it but the kid will get to know about gambling which I think he/she doesn't need to but in the end its just a toy if you think it can be bad for your kid don't buy it.

It's better to give normal toys or whether toys that kids would really enjoy instead of something like that. Every kid should have their own wants and I think, if they have done something great, you could reward them with the toy they want. That's awesome.

I think the manufacturers are likely to be sued if they are sold in certain jurisdictions where gambling is strictly prohibited. I don't know where the OP is from but he can take legal actions against the company and have them correct the age limit on the item.

I also think that is a quite a strange toy for a kid. I don't even see how they can enjoy playing it, because there is no objective or strategy to play those games. They will probably be bored if they play it, since they are not betting anything, and all they see is random numbers. I don't see any problem or a kid to play poker though. If they don't play it with real money, is just another card game, and quite interesting.

I think kids should not be allowed to play with this kind of toys. Yeah, it is a toy but it will give them idea about gambling which is very appropriate for this age. There are many toys to choose from which will much better than this. Toys that could help them learn things like the alphabet, building blocks. As parents, it is very important to watch and monitor the growth of their kids as well as to nurture their gifts by choosing the right food for them to eat as well as the right toys for them to play with.

Honestly, a good parent will never let their kids learn gambling at a young age.

Why would someone give a gift like this to children ? This is crazy. Would you like your son be a gambler when he grow up ?
It's like your giving him a mind set of gambling in the future.
Buy him a toy car, plane maybe or a toy that would let him have a dream for himself, a productuve one. And as a parent set a good example to him.

Your type people are called genius i hope everyone like you have a mind. Because everyone want to teach their kids good things. As you are doing then it is a good think. Your last sentence made me surprised that how can you think for your kids like that. Actually it is awesome really I want things like that as you manage. But i always loss I hope you got my point.

They could make their own stakes like whoever losses gets to do the chores or do a random challenge for example you have to eat exotic foods, that would make it fun to play. That's how we settle things back in the days with my cousins when we are playing card games.

I wouldn't buy it either knowing there are other toys that are much better than that.

Wow:o, what a nice kind of toy for a kid. I'm also surprised with that. Don't you worry because it is just an ordinary toy. There are many kinds of toys like that in the market. Maybe that sign was the type of error of the manufacturer but the right is +18. See how the child is developed if all toys like that would allow selling at the market, they are easily learning how to do gambling. Parents must be concerned with their kids when they are buying toys like what you have posted here in this forum. We must aware with that to grow our child with good manners and right conduct.

For kid as long as it does not use money, it does not matter. Just to play and fun is not so dangerous, just do not teach him to use the money. That's good enough to help the child's mind power and spur his brain power to get a victory in the game played.

no problem? Are you crazy, should we teach things that are good for kids and if we can explain that games like this should never be played and if your child's age has sufficient explain the bad effects that can be obtained from gambling.

As a parent we have our own decision, gambling is not bad after all we are educated on what is right, the gift was merely a game in gambling but since there is no real money involve there is no risk at all. My kids at a young age already know how to play cards and I don't see any danger on that when they grow up as I will ensure I will give them enough information to fully understand things and view gambling as an entertainment.

We can’t control what is going to be sold in the market. For the parents, it is their duty and responsibility to keep their children safe and happy. Toys like this that should not be sold for kids can be prevented to come out in the market but it will not be our decision to make. As far as I know, there are groups that aims to prevent situations like this and I believe that this should be the concern of the government.

I learned playing card when I was in my grade school, I think I was 10 at that time. My father knows card games but would only teach us card games that are non-related with gambling and betting. In the future, I would not buy things like this for my children to play. I do not want any of them to be involved in gambling at a young age.

I've got similar present ~my preteen years for Christmas. But I remember that I only turn the wheel few times and put to collect dust. And I still don't like the game. But IMO it's complete inappropriate for children gift.

It could be used to teach the child a valuable lesson (for example), "if you win you get an increase in your real money allowance, but if you lose it will cost you." Long-term: The lesson should work, unless the kid is really lucky.

What is wrong in this kind of toy? It's more like a normal game, one kids can play for fun and they can understand colors and numbers. This shall help them know that if they play with money they will loose. This is a very nice game and it shall help all children understand what it is to play with money and the consequences of loosing it. So I see nothing wrong in it.

If you solely buy this toy just for the sake of making them realize then it would really be a bad idea since you wont know if your child would able to realize such thing or not because we do have different mentality when it comes to gambling. If you don't really like for your kids to be a future gambler then better not to expose them on these kind of games because if they would able to encounter them for an earlier age I think it would really mold them to be a gambler.

If I have a kid, I will not buy him/her that kind of toy, as a parent I should not teach him/her to gamble in his/her early age. My kids will become addict to it and it is not good. I will just buy my kid/kids a robot, a car, a transformer, racing car, a ball for a boy and a Barbie, books, dress, some toy she likes. I may teach his/her in bitcoin but at least joining campaigns so they can have income if they get interested to it. Then I will just let them explore if they learn on how to deal with gambling I will let them I will just make sure that it is not too much involvement.
