A lot of kids don't obey their parents just because of this, they think they are superior and their parents and the parents underestimate them for a lot of things but they are wrong, parents know and understand everything and they make their decisions based on their understanding of things.
Well, most parents are known for trying to make the best decision for their children, but truth be told, we can't always be right all the time. Sometimes we need to ask what our children want, and sometimes we also need to break some limits in order for us to put them in place. 
 
As far as I know, parents can't detect that for a grown-up child, you can't stop them; you can only try, but they will do it at their own will without you even noticing, so the best is for you to embrace them and tell them the right way to go about it rather than them learning by themselves and from outsiders who might show them the wrong part.

Sometimes it's not about the control that gets parents angry, but it's all about how they picture gambling to be, and also seeing a young adult take part in it can make them see their child as someone who is taking the wrong step. 
The parents are right, they are taking the wrong step if they are gambling at an age where they aren't mature enough to understand everything or have enough patience and self-control to gamble responsibility. Parents understand their children much better than the children themselves. Children would think they know everything and can do anything, but they are wrong, their parents would know their capabilities and what they can and can't do.

A lot of kids don't obey their parents just because of this, they think they are superior and their parents and the parents underestimate them for a lot of things but they are wrong, parents know and understand everything and they make their decisions based on their understanding of things.
That's right. Parents know everything that is happening with their kids. It's both instincts and knowledge about their kids when they are growing.
I know my kids when they are doing something wrong and sometimes they think I have an eye at the back of my head because even if I am not looking, I know if they are messing up something. Cheesy
In regards to gambling, I just hope they won't be tempted to gamble especially at school because for me that's where most of my gambling habits started thinking my family won't see me or won't have any knowledge about what I am doing. But I know that they know too because my allowance is easily depleted even though the week is not over yet. And they also know that I don't have any money anymore to pay for my fare on my ride to school.
A young one can easily get attracted to gamble with friends surrounding him and that's when crazy things will happen.

Hi community,

I remember when I was in middle school, we used to play cards almost every day, and our stupidity reached the point where we would skip classes while we were inside school. The method of playing was easy, as the largest number was the winning card. So, some of my friends and I would gather in the middle school bathroom and make bets with the money that we had collected  from selling cigarettes.
Of course, this is not something I am proud of and I do not recommend it to everyone, but it's just childhood memories .

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

Probably the craziest thing was betting on outcomes of video games with friends during all-night gaming sessions. Nothing as bold as skipping classes, but there were times when those gaming bets replaced homework or studying, leading to some frantic catch-up sessions later.
Definitely, moments like those are better left in the past as learning experiences, but they sure make for some interesting stories!

Does strip poker and removing clothes count as crazy? But yeah, i've betted for other weird chores even if that's not counted. We have used poker when we were students as a tool similar to rock paper scissors or shortest straw, when someone needs to do someting. And sometimes we upped the stakes in real game when someone lost their money and they offered to humiliate themselves. Like running naked on the street or similar, or agreeing to do dishes for a month etc. I once got full plastic bag of different fine cheeses from my friend as he offered those when he ran out of money.

I also got movies, before they were easy to copy or there was a streaming possibility. And i once i lost my bike for a bet. That one i actually still regret.

There are still people that would choose to do anything just for them to make money in gambling. Gambling is supposed to be something we could control our mindset for not just trying to win by all means. There are people who can still borrow funds to make sure they bet on their favorite game and try if they could win bets. Things are not supposed to be in this way and we need to make sure we plan things just to make sure that we don't go too far as gamblers. Money need to be made but we must also think we'll before we decided to do anything that would give us problems as gamblers especially getting funds from people in order to play gamble.

I think if you’re willing to do literally anything to get money to satisfy a desire, then you’re already an addict or well on your way towards becoming one.
When we feel comfortable borrowing money to satisfy a want or a desire, that’s a sign of financial woes that lies ahead. Financial debts would accumulate but that probably wouldn’t bother an addict as he only thinks of going over to the casino to play some more in unrealistic hopes of winning it big enough to cover up all his loans.

If one wants to indulge in a past time activity and can’t afford it, stay away and leave it till you could comfortably afford to indulge oneself.
If we use that standard you will soon realize that a great deal of people are addicted to something, as in order to buy something they are willing to put themselves on financial stress, it is just that since gambling has such a long history, and over the years people have noticed some gamblers fall into an addiction, that people are more wary towards it than other activities that have appeared recently and that are many times more addictive.

I don’t think I have ever bet at the wrong place. It depends on your definition of a wrong place because to me betting doesn’t need any specific kind of environment. But I have bet at a wrong time before. By wrong time I mean when your emotions aren’t in complete control and you know it, but you still pressure/push yourself to play the game. There’s no time that is more wrong than such a time because the likely outcome is a loss.

I can think of a few places could be considered a wrong place, for example it can be a fraudulent casino, or a real world casino where you get mugged, etc.

About timing though, yeah, it's just a personal thing because in terms of math every bet is independent of the previous ones so timing doesn't matter.

Timing does matter. If you look at the example I gave, you will see how it matters. If you gamble immediately after a loss, thinking that the ticket is independent of the other then you may end in a big loss because even if the ticket is independent, it’s still the same person, and that person will carry the emotions to bet the new ticket.

Or could be the same team, that's what happened to me today, I bet on this particular team and they seemed to be losing. I have no hope to win but when I checked again on the live betting odds, I find it very attractive, so I made another bet on the same team and turns out they loss. I have experience this many times, I ain't gonna learn, LOL.. Although I know that based on my experience, I experience more losses when I let my emotion dictate me but there are really times that I feel chasing my losses is necessary.

Since they are called kids, they can make any wrong decision. It is natural that they will make mistakes. But in this case I don't blame them because it is their age problem. If the parents of a family do not take proper care of their children then they will step in any wrong path. For this reason, every parent should observe the child's direction or what he/she is doing. Parents must play a major role in guiding them in the right direction. A child does not learn anything from birth. He imitates somebody. If he has such an associate then the person or child who is in contact with him should be leave the company.or else he may get worse. Parents must behave responsibly towards their children. So that the children do not go the other way. Parental responsibility remains until a child reaches adulthood.

That's why things when it comes to raising children, young people, are not as easy as they sometimes make it out to be, sometimes things have to do with casinos, betting houses. , sports betting, children have access because the Internet shows them all kinds of advertising, but that is where the parents have to be, so that they supervise and enforce the rules already established for the child, in this case there cannot be many permissions. because the casino, sports betting are only for adults, it is impossible for things like that to be for those under 18 years of age, responsibility is needed in every sense, and a child, a teenager does not have it, so those under 18 years of age. Year-old children don't have to get involved in this kind of thing, that's basically what you have to do, but it's not easy for children and teenagers to believe, it's really hard work.

Trying to hide bad habits is of course better so that other people don't follow the activities we do and also this will prevent us from becoming the object of ridicule from other people, because I often see someone who has bad habits which will certainly become the subject of people's conversation. others and this will make us feel uncomfortable interacting with people around us anymore.

If we do bad habits like gambling and we don't bother other people when gambling, of course this is better, because if we do bad habits and disturb other people, of course this is very bad and no one will be happy to see us around them. So it would be better if we gamble using the funds we have and if we lose and no longer have funds we don't make it difficult for the people around us.
No matter what you are hiding and what you are not. You know everything has two sides. As people come to know the bad sides if we share at the same time they will be able to know the bad side of that activity and as a result, the will be able to avoid those bad sides.

We all have our past and as our memories have that some of us use it as stepping stone for the future while others live in that same faith and does not making any good movement for their future .
we also have our gambling style when we were younger and yeah youngsters are creative to have their gambling ways hidden infront of their parents and teachers ,.
No matter how good you might appear to be, when it comes to hiding certain things from your parents and teachers, you can't be all careful all the time. Just one simple mistake and your hard secrets will be made public. 
 
We all try hard to hide our bad habits from our guidance, but they always discover them. We get punished and move on. That's just it. There were times when I was not bold enough to talk about gambling in front of my SR siblings during my middle school years, but right now I can even do it in front of them. What matters is that I'm in control.

Yes indeed this is a bad thing to do even if we have money we shouldn't do something crazy such as risking money with a large amount of money, we must be able to see the side of the loss that is definitely happening. Leaving the activities that we should do for the sake of gambling in my opinion is a bad action, because you should not also defend gambling desperately. Gambling with when you have free time, don't let gambling disturb your other activities that might be more important than gambling.

Gambling can indeed be addictive, many young people who live messy because they are too excessive when doing gambling, they are addicted to gambling, while gambling addictive is not a good thing, because by being addicted to gambling we will experience continuous gambling that can make We lose a lot of money. Because the victory in the gambling cannot be obtained easily, most likely what will be obtained is only a defeat that makes us lose some money and if we are addicted, the gambling that cannot be stopped with other meanings is the same as our money that will be drained a lot by doing gambling endlessly.
People think gambling brings riches? Totally false. The system encourages loss. I've seen many capable folks throw stuff away at tables. That's not sensible, because winners dont do that.

Risk is part of life. Smart gambling is crucial. Develop yourself, your abilities, your thoughts. Your probabilities rise greatly there. We want a powerful nation, right? That requires smart choices. Dont waste money on rigged games. Use those resources to create something permanent and useful. A winning recipe.

I know addiction is hard. It takes considerable willpower to overcome. But remember, people want to assist. Utilize support services. Never let gambling rule you. We love winning, but with honesty and purpose.

It is indeed a wrong idea to think that gambling is a quick way to get rich, because thinking like that will only make us lose more money. It's true what you said, don't waste it on games that have been rigged, if you really want to gamble, please do it appropriately, don't overdo it, because it's not just about gambling, everything that is done excessively is sometimes not good. especially with gambling where winning is difficult to obtain because it is a rule that defeat will occur more often with gambling that is done.

We have to play gambling well, don't let it be gambling that plays tricks on us, by doing crazy things just to chase victory, in my opinion, it doesn't make sense. Such actions might be carried out by people who are seriously addicted to gambling, because someone who is addicted to gambling will of course not care about losing, they will continue to gamble even if they experience losses and defeats.

If we talk about the wrong place then yes it is true as you said that we can conclude that it is a wrong casino, in the sense that the casino is not responsible for the problems experienced by gamblers outside of the gambler's fault and outside of the problem of winning and losing, And also maybe we can conclude that the wrong place is when you enter and bet in a fraudulent casino where yes I understand that from the beginning we cannot know that the casino will cheat us such as not paying our winnings or frozen accounts after we make deposits, but things like this in my opinion can still be minimized by being more careful in choosing a casino and try to bet in a casino that has a good reputation and is quite reliable.

Gambling is always about uncertainty that runs without any guarantee to make a gambler win, simply put everything always runs randomly which means yes as you said that every result of gambling will always be different, meaning this confirms that time cannot be used as a benchmark or reference for you to determine when you will win.

If you are not an addict then you are good to go. But sometimes we can be in the motion of actually gambling and even forget ourselves and make a very stupid move that we might find regretful at the end sometimes. So many people actually bet crazy sometimes but that doesn't certify that they are addict, the sure thing to note is that you are well aware of the action and note to correction if possible even.
There was this one time I was chasing my gambling losses and it proved to have been some of the worst moves I did while gambling. As if I never knew better to not chase my losses but I did. I had the intent of just gambling a certain amount on this day and it was sucked up, I lost. That’s how I found myself on the path of recovery and it was such a dreaded path. I wished I had ended it with the first lose but no, I gambled even more, increasing my stakes every time and it was sucked up. Ended up with several triers and still same result until my last two stakes. I ended up recovering 70% of my total bet amount but had a gross lose. It felt terrible and that’s what it was.

Though many people have been involved in this kind of thing but one thing is sure those days you weren't in control of what you did considering your age and am very happy that you condemned the act, I have a friend those days that involve in the same act but his own has worsen now because he couldn't stop gambling, he graduated from middle school gambling to a pure addict, op you were lucky that you were able to get out of this, many addicted gamblers started just as you narrated it, gambling at a young age is very disastrous because at this age you are unable to control your actions, this may sound strange to many of us that weren't involve in this kind of stuff but I must tell you getting out of this behaviour isn't easy.
You are right that when any one place a bet which usually not happen that occur only for addiction or we may call it as a crazy bet. And it happened with me at several times. And maximum time I am closer though I made profit in fee bets. I had bet these bets as I had no control though I think I am not addicted on gambling.
If you are not an addict then you are good to go.

If we try to do anything crazy about bet we are playing when gambling, we are likely to see the other way round as well being the outcome on what we have done, it can happens that we be in a situation of taking drastic steps on how we want to go about with gambling and this may only be something we are doing out of our own ignorance not minding the consequences to that, but as we may it, things may go as expected that we achieved a better result even at the crazy things we do.
Indeed, sometimes in gambling, it is believed that the higher the risk you a gambler takes, the higher the reward. But this theory isn't certain as one can never be certain or too sure about gambling. In fact, this can actually work quite in the opposite direction and lead a gambler into the unending cycle of making irrational decisions while gambling, with hopes of winning big and then forget about the potential consequences that it can lead you to. Indeed, this behaviour is mostly based on emotion rather than logic.
Although gambling involves risk, there is no guarantee that a gambler will be able to win at gambling by risking each bet. Taking more risks increases the chance of losing as well as the potential for greater rewards if you win. But what the gambler has to do is to bet within a limit and control the gambler's greed. Greed forces every gambler to take extra risks which greatly increases his chances of losing. There were times when I used to gamble recklessly. I used to manage gambling by ignoring some basic things that depleted my bankroll. But ever since I started paying more attention to betting, I felt a little better about losing. Gambling is always hard to win but even if you lose there are few regrets. Above all it is important to focus on how to enjoy the bet without going too crazy with it.
