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?
Actually, it is already obvious on the picture, the word gambling it self it much more proof that it is bad for childrens. A gambling games is not allowed to used of the children. If I where you I will not allowed my childrens to play such a games like that, games that are related to gambling because I don't want them to learn gambling because of me or because I influence them rather I teach them how to be a good person as well as a wise person because I do believe that what they learned from you is the way they should go in their future.

Probably made in China?

Of course, I won't buy this kind of toy for my kids. Last board games I bought was a millionares and monopoly. Possible that the sign was a mistake by the vendor. But who know? I don't know how this kind of mistake are not checked before offering this kind of toy to the public, specially that this kind of toys are for kids. December is just a few months from now, so parents should be careful of getting toys or kids or as a gift.

Why China lol. Even if it mad in china, they must have a sign that should be 18+ to buy it. It's fucked up actually, that toys teach kids to gambling and i'm sure when they grown up, they will gamble for sure with real money and hell no to buy this toys for my kids. It will bring negative affect to my kids.

I think I saw this 10 years ago, or maybe more. You have also box with poker set chips, its plastic and without numbers, poker cards, and a little green table clot with marked places for cards chips. Some parents buy this games for their kids and I saw how kids play this on their birthdays. I agree that this shouldn`t be sell to kids, but kids don`t buy this games their parents do.
When I was a kid there wasn`t toys like this one, now when you go to some game shop you can find what ever you wish, I strongly believe that some toys are not for kid, its for grown up people. But they still sell it, and this is a problem that governments should take care off, but they deal with some stupid things like always.

Kid's shouldn't be playing this. I also think that it should be for 18+. At young age, kids should be playing something that would help nurture their minds. Something that would help them in the future. It's wrong to teach kids how to gamble at young age. They might even finds it interesting to gamble if they will keep on playing toys like this.

Well, I agree, this kind of stuffs should be for 18+. Other board games can be good for kids. Kids shouldn't learn anything about gambling at young age, it might influence them until they grow up and they might think that there's no problem with gambling. It might also become a bad habit for them.

That is very smart gift for kid. So he doesn't need to wonder and try to find what it is like when he turns to be teen by himself.

I think that this is not a bad thing. Thus, a child from childhood will understand that such games are created only for pleasure and you can play them without losing your money.

I got pretty similar toy casino for my 10th birthday, and I almost never played it, probably because I was always more focused on saving money instead of saving, but I definitely see how this can influence some kids and help develop gambling addiction later in their life. In my opinion, this game should be at least 13+. And it's very important that parents explain to their children that involves big risks and statistically there's always more chances to lose than to win. Sadly, most parents ignore this issue or don't have enough understanding of the subject.

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.

That's something i have never seen. I mean who can allow to import a gambling game for kids to his country. You should file a report to the cops and make these chinese products ban everywhere.

LOL. Exactly. But you all know how these chinese toy manufacturer roll. They just make anything they want and see what sticks. You all can google "weird chinese toys" and see what I mean. They also infringe so much branded stuff it is ridiculous already. They even fail at copying stuff most of the time.

Might be the company which have produced this isn't registered anywhere and local law enforcement might not care about such materials which are being sold openly in local stores.

Personally, I don't think this should be allowed to any kids and obviously nobody like to make their kid a addicted gambler in future.

Yeah. I'm assuming this is not a "Made in America" product as they are very strict in following the law laid down by Department of Commerce. If anyone finds about it, they will be taken out of the shelves immediately.

I will not buy that kind of toys for my kids as well. Don't want them to learn gambling at a early age. There are better games than this one for kids.

Or probably the other way around, the company is not registered since they should have known the mechanics of creating games and the age limit of each game.  I would say let us not be hasty on judging and conclude that the item is made in China or made by Chinese people.

Though I would not buy that game as a gift to any minors since basically gambling is not intended for minors.

It is an inappropriate toys, gambling only can be played when the person already able to responsible for his own act, that is why a lot of country has age restriction, this kind of toys will ruined the young generation and teach the kids gambling in early age can caused the kid to become addicted to gambling

Interesting.
That 18+ rule doesn't apply to all the countries,if that's not allowed in your legislature you should probably ask the  guy to not sell it.Most of the dealers don't really give a shit as long as they're not selling a fire arm toy.My question is : Why didn't YOU explain that it is illegal to sell such toys to kids ?

LOL, the "8+" is prolly just a recommendation and likely only because of the choking hazard from the dice/chips/roulette ball.

Anyway, personally, I don't have a problem with it. Kids are going to learn about a lot of bad things we don't want them to learn about before they are 18 yeas old or whatever age is the cutoff for such things - sex, drugs, alcohol, gambling etc. It's up to parents to educate/talk to their kids about such things regardless.

I will not buy that kind of toy with my child. This is not accurate with their age. Even if 8 years old. They are still not allowed to play that kind of games, they will learn bad habits in an early age. Even if there is an age sign, we should also check as a parent if those toys are accurate to them. We are the one who are really responsible to them.

I have a son who is already into lots of games which is kind of a bad sign, on that if any kid learns gambling or try to gamble then it will definitely affect their mind. Never ever let kids play these kind of toy.
This is a nice point, I have also a son which are into playing games but I wont suggest giving a gift a gambling toy. I would rather give him an educational tools which he can learned more. This is not a good idea that a kid will being into this kind of game.

I won't buy my nephew that kind of toy I don't want to be the one who will introduce him with gambling and its not fun to see young ones play gambling at early age even if they only use play money because that will become their training ground and if the time comes that they will be in the right age for sure they will be a gambler and worst will be addicted in gambling.
