Topic: Have you seen gambling advertisements on TV? Opinion. - page 6. (Read 1728 times)

The laws regarding gambling in different countries vary, advertisements of a gambling nature can be shown on television in countries where they are permitted (Legal). In several other countries where gambling is considered illegal or does not have permission from the government, gambling advertising may not be permitted. Maybe the gambling site you see on television is a sponsor of that sport.

Tell your child the truth. Tell your child the truth, lies will make him respect you less when he knows the real facts. If you don't want your children to get caught up in gambling, avoid them from anything related to gambling.

Be my guest and try to guess But I will give you a hint - Russian is a mother language in our family, but the national language is different in the country. You are correct with “bookies” are what is mostly advertised. Not slots of lotteries for example. Even though I think we still have or had a lottery that was aired on TV. Cant comment on the football, as I dont follow it. Maybe we have clubs that are sponsores with bookmakers. I dont know. I dont watch TV much, or maybe I am watching wrong channels

I think I know what country you are from  And if bookmakers are classified as gambling (obviously this is how it should be), then advertising is quite widespread. For example, all football analytics are accompanied by sponsors, which are bookmakers. In addition, in the top division of your country there is a football club that changed its name in honor of one of the bookmakers (this is "Parlay" from Nizhny Novgorod).

I think for some TV channels they usually advice parental guardians for some programs that are rated as such so for such program we could ask the children not to watch such channels, for TV where there's parental controls on them they would permit such to be shown on the tv as the parental control will cause a restriction on the channel.

I'm actually advising the usage of parental controls on our TV if we don't want our kids exposed to certain things as this because when they are exposed to it they would ask questions as it's in their nature to be curious and want to have an idea into almost everything they see around so the only way out will have to be to reduce their exposure to such things, for kids channels the don't permit such ads because they know the kids aren't their target audience and so such shouldn't be displayed on their channels but in a case where they happen to see it probably when you watching TV with them you could tell them to ignore it as it doesn't concern them.

I think we will not be able to completely prevent some shows that involve or that have elements of gambling promotion to limit their promotional shows on several media such as TV channels or other platforms because now is the digital era that all things we can find by just looking and carrying, a lot of references and knowledge that we can get on the internet because indeed on the other hand the internet has become an important part for several companies to develop their business because it is the internet that is their biggest promotional place, and we can find many things whether positive or negative.

So the point is that we as parents must make plans that lead to prevention in any way that we think makes sense, and one of them may be by limiting the activities carried out by a child who is still underage who does have a high enough curiosity about something they see, I think limiting them from the association of the environment along with limiting them from using social media is a good step to minimize.

Different countries have different laws and policies when it comes to gambling and it's advertisments on national TV stations. In some countries gambling advertisments are not allowed on national TVs at all for the sake of children as the government are more concerned in protecting the kids from getting gambling knowledge at young age while in other countries, gambling advertisments are only shown on the national TV during midnight hours when the kids must have gone to bed but in some other countries, gambling advertisments are shown on national TV even during the day time.

In my own country, gambling advertisments is shown on national TV during the day especially when football games are being shown on the TV and that I think is very bad as it exposes the young children to gambling at very tender age.

Kids are like sponges, soaking up everything they see and hear. Those ads can make gambling seem fun and harmless, which is, well, not the case. So, how do we keep our little ones from getting sucked into that world?

First things first, ditch the beatdown plan. Trust me, scaring your kid straight with a gambling beatdown  is not the way to go. It'll just create fear and distrust, not understanding. Think of it like teaching them about crossing the street. You point out the dangers, explain the rules, but you also talk about the fun things they can do on the other side, right? Same deal with gambling.

Media literacy is your friend! Teach your kid to be like a detective, analyzing those ads and figuring out their tricks. Are they using celebrities or flashy visuals to make it seem cool? Are they promising quick money without mentioning the risks? Once they see through the BS, they'll be less likely to fall for it. On top of that, set some boundaries. Use parental controls, choose channels with fewer gambling ads, and maybe even have a "no gambling ads" rule during family TV time.

But remember, it's not just about saying no. Offer alternatives! Get them involved in activities they love, like sports, music, or that cool coding club they've been eyeing. The more they have going on, the less likely they are to be drawn towards something risky like gambling.

I rarely watch TV with advertising these days, the rise of the streaming platforms also meant that I am really sensible to advertising now and will avoid it as much as possible. So, I am not really sure if there are many gambling ads in my country at the moment. What I do know is that there are a lot of other forms of gambling ads, like public posters, flyers or the most visible ones are on the side of cars. Because of all the casino lights and the pictures are usually taken at night the ads look pretty cool. When asked by kids about them I think it's important to stay honest and not lie to them. My nephew is almost 10 and he gets very interested in new topics. I tell him that it's gaming for adults that involve money and you need to be 18. When he is still interested when he turns 18 I am happy to take him to a casino and teach him about the games.

At my country there are gambling ads on TV, but they are so rare, that there is little to worry about. Food retail chains and shopping malls ads mostly dominate on our local TV. Maybe this is due to gambling get special regulation for TV in country, maybe this is due to tv time being expensive. Because on various streaming and video platforms, I face gambling ads all the time. My attitude to them is either neutral or negative due to showing to frequently.

It depends, and if it is in a normal show/program, that is the irresponsibility of the advertising regulation agency of your country, they should even be fined or their boss resign. But in your case, nothing is bad about it. You know what, a lot of things are happening that people are only turning a blind eye to, but later, it will be an issue. I hope they do not make that mistake in important programs that children can also watch. Gambling is an adult activity and inasmuch as the law doesn't want the underage to participate in it, they should not tempt them as well. It is highly irresponsible of them to be advertising such unless there is a disclaimer in the entire program where they warn of 18+. If not, parents can even sue them if they want, only that people do not think towards that angle.

Now, for clarity's sake, it is not taboo to advertise gambling companies on TV, but programs matter. For example, in football programs and others, such can be done. Still, in most cases that I've witnessed, they will just have the banner hanging around a section of the screen, and not saying anything relating to gambling directly. By this, adults will fully understand what they mean.

You're right. If kids see these kinds of ads, it may affect them at a young age. It can change how they think about gambling and may make it seem normal to them. Parents should talk openly to their kids and educate them about the risks and effects of gambling, for them to be aware and teach kids how to think critically.

If the gambling was legal one in your country,you can watch the game in various places including the television.Most of the time the gamblers able to watch the advertisements in the YouTube and the application used in their play store.Because the gambling advertising was allowed in your country because of the funds given to the country by the way of taxes.The small country will try to illegal the gambling,because they don’t want to cut their economy in the way of the money spreads in the gambling site.Instead the gamblers can do the gambling in their own gambling site by skipping the play of the gambling in the other application front the other countries.

Here in our country, gambling ads are not allowed on TV, you can only see gambling ads on social media, YouTube, but mostly on social media because of vloggers. It's about your kid, tell him the truth, tell him that gambling is bad for a child, educate him. Your child will understand you, just let him know properly that he is not ready for such things, it is too dangerous for the child. +points for me when the child's parents don't gamble or the child doesn't see his parents gambling, others because they see their parents gambling so the children get curious and try too.

I have seen a lot of casino advertising on TV but basically things can be done differently because they are different in view of a fiat money base and not crypto, I don't know if with casinos that are crypto based because things change, or at least in some countries they allow it, but until now I always see a lot of tc, but I don't see casino Advertising, I do see Casino ads at Football matches on billboards, Especially from sportstbet.io and casinos like that , but advertising that is done regarding casinos in Particular , such as one that I see a lot is from: casino.com, and I don't Remember the Name of the All casinos but those casinos are very famous and are very popular so that the oersons let them know through the advertisements, and based on this we are very emphatic in everything, for this we have to do everything possible so that we are but aware that I see in the Channels , that Obviously they are not of In my country but in other countries I have not even seen the great propaganda of a Crypto casino, and it strikes me that it is like this.

So if this happens, then things can be like that, in this sense we have to be very aware of what we are saying, and well, another one that I have seen is from Colombian channels where they basically show casinos that are local, now if we are looking for the way to look for more and better advertising because they should take the risk that things can be seen more intensely if it appears on all the ladies' TVs because there they can reach the eyes of the biggest casino gamblers, especially those who are watching football and any sport, in this case we have to be very emphatic, I have not seen so far things with casinos that have to do with Bitcoin, nor with cryptocurrencies, it would be excellent if they could apply this advertising and on the radio, it seems incredible because Even on radio and TV, including prey is the best.

No direct television advertising. However, if we look at sports matches that are broadcast on TV, sponsors such as Stake.com, sportbet.io also often appear in the sponsor's logo.

Live gambling advertisements will never happen on television in my country. Because gambling is considered illegal. If you use YouTube or social media, lots of gambling advertisements appear.

Going back about ads on tv then here in our country's cable provider which it's been that moderated if we do speak about gambling or betting ads. There might be one but it's only shown into those sports dedicated channels.

Yeah I've seen many gambling advertisements on Tv and most of indian sport channels plays those advertisement during live Match so that more and more people can know about that gambling ads and visit that specific website/organizations. And of course this is bad for kids when they  turns into a decent age where you can't stopped for long by telling lies. But i haven't found any solution except you subscribe paid subscription for ads free channels. but there are many ways like some banners will still get highlighted at boundaries or many more. Team actually needs money for fulfill the expense of matches and they look healthy amount of money for those advertisement

Gambling ads are not regulated in my country too, you'll see celebrities advertising different spots bets on tv, billboards and social media sites. As a matter of fact, the rate at which sports bet and lotto shops are springing up in every corners of the country is very alarming. You'll see the young and old trooping in to make bets, and these has become a norm that we're compelled to accept. Out if curiosity my young son was asking me what they sale in this shop that a lot of people enters and comes out from morning till night? It was a popular lotto shop annex, I had to tell him the truth of what people do in lotto shops and most importantly educated him on the harzards of gambling and addiction, after the lecture he promised me that he'll never enter a place like that. So in essence it's to educate our underaged children and dependants on the dangers of gambling ads that they see everytime.

Spending long hours on screen is not encouraged for both adults and kids. Eye straining blurs the views of kids, growing up. In the process, if not attended to the parents will have to spend money treating eye problems. Gambling ads will pop up for kids and not all would bother asking what it's about. They'll look it up on Google and when they discover it's a game, the child would want to participate. Parents are required to keep a close look at every online activity a child gets involved in. Neglecting a few observations on the kids exposes them to lots of dangerous ads that go beyond gambling. And can destroy the future of the child, due to the loads of fake information he'll be feeding himself. The ads we see on stadiums can't be regulated for kids. Both those watching on television and the kids in the stadium get to see the ads. If they insist on knowing it's quite an advantage to help that child understand the age requirement for gambling.

Just like in the case of beer, kids see those ads and don't bother about drinking it as it's obvious the drink is not for children. I deem it right for a child to be outspoken in asking such questions to his parents rather than Google. On the other hand, parents should build a strong relationship with their children such that they'll be able to ask questions directly to them. It'll reduce the rate of time they spend reading answers on blogs. Helping them focus on other real-life activities like spending time with fellow kids in their environment. Though the environment isn't safe too, we should keep up with our close relationship and ask calculative questions to the kids on the outcome of their daily activities. Other than watching football games a child wouldn't see too many gambling ads. They can only see gaming ads on cartoon channels and also develop an interest in playing video games until they get to the appropriate age of wondering about gambling or participating in the game.

Gambling isn't that legal in my country. But still there are many international sport channels where authorities use to show us gambling adds and promote many websites even some banners at boundaries while watching those channels on TV cause gambling websites & authorities are sponsors of such sporting activities for their promotion. But honestly kids don't care about those, when i was kid I didn't notice such things. But if you found your kids asking you such thing then don't lie but explain & give them gambling education. Mentioned bad sides & aware them not to involve with gambling. Be responsible enough and check their activities.
