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?

It seems that it has a certain level to this subject. While some studies consider betting to drug abuse, others believe it's more of a routine or behaviour. Stress and other factors can cause addictive behaviours, such as gambling, making them difficult to control. So, while gambling does not have similar physiological impacts as drugs, it may be a highly addictive behaviour. So I believe it's intriguing that you were driven to the excitement of gambling and the possible benefits at such a young age. Gambling, on the other hand, is for adult brains since it has serious negative consequences for humans if not controlled.

First time hearing op said their stupidity. However, you are so lucky to realize your mistakes and were addictions is bringing you to. But it's bad as a student to gamble while school time. Even when you are not gambling with money time will come when you will start betting with money and as you have started at your early age it would be very difficult to quit.
Funny aspect of addiction and gamblers is they don't always agree that they are addicted to gamble. You see, now from using the money made from cigarettes to gamble one day you might sell property and use the money to gamble, that's how additcions start.
Understanding your own gambling addiction is highly commendable because those who are addicted to gambling never care about anyone else's advice. But anyone who can feel his addiction on his own and wants to get out of gambling can do so. Gambling is fun and we use this fun in such a way that it makes our life very dangerous and destroys our career. so one should be as careful as possible from gambling and follow the limited gambling strategy according to one's financial status and age.

Hey, we all did crazy stuff back then, even me. Some harmless rebellion, right? We learn that way. In the school bathroom gambling? It requires guts. Not smart, but bold. Having fun is very different from getting into trouble.

Gambling can get you down. It must be done properly and within limits. That distinguishes winners from losers. Knowing when to quit and staying focused. Do not allow it affect your schooling, relationships, or future. Playing wisely and in control is the fun. I'd call that a winning plan.

I see that many people tell their stories about how they stole money from their parents, unfortunately, I also had one time where I stole some money from my stepfather. I was young and hated him because he communicated with me in a rude manner, and then one day I saw his jacket, I had this thought spontaneously and before that I had not thought about it. There were several bills in the inside pocket of this jacket and I took one because I thought he wouldn’t notice. He really didn’t notice, but if the opposite happened, he could beat me for it, so it was very risky. After that, I lost this money on slots and very quickly.

Now I understand that this shouldn’t have been done, because karma returned to me and now I noticed how my mother stole money from my jacket to go and buy myself a drink and this made me very angry. It turned out that it came back to me like a boomerang.
Man, I honestly do not know what is the culture in your country or which ever part of the world you are from, but courtesy has it that, saying your mother stole from you (and even doing that in public) is a total disregard and disrespect for your mum, and with all due respect, soemthing you should be ashamed of.
In the part of the world where I come from, mothers do not steal from their child, they never can steal from their child, they can only take, with or without their child's permission.

Your mother taking some money from your jacket isnt stealing, she has that right to take money from her son's jacket, and before you called or referred to this as stealing, did you bother to think the possibility that she was going to tell you she took money from your jacket and bought a drink for herself, but she forgot?
Man, never refer to your mother as a thief, not even within yourself, let alone, referring to her as a thief in public space, its a totally shameful thing to do, and a very bad behavior.
Your mother has the right to take from you whatever she needs, she can give you that courtesy of telling you, but if she doesn't probably because she forgot to, still respect her regardless, a mother does not steal from her own son.

Betting has been one of the craziest things that have made me too go backward in school when I was in high school sometimes my parents gave me money to pay for some stuff in school and I would quickly take out 50% of it in betting I am my friends have really done something bad and I keep on losing Well it’s a really bad memory because my parents keep on hitting me and having issues with me, but I do enjoy myself at that age I will never advise anyone to go into that kind of habits because I know right now children are still doing crazy things in school .
It is normal for a child to go through this but growing up with habit is not something that has to be sustained, though as a child is not easy to control some of this habits but with time you can choose through good and bad, I was also a victim of some shit then but it wasn't easy for me though I scale through, some of us our childhood memory in real sense is just a trash, but what I want is to know is that, as a child there limits to what you can control and thats why you should blame blame yourself much because at this period you can't make decision for yourself, it is difficult to chose between good and bad at that stage, to me I don't see anything that happen then as anything that previously happened as anything, though it is just a memory that we cant leave without.
When a child continues to carry out this bad habit by deceiving their parents, of course this will continue to become a bad habit that will continue to other people and indeed most of us have done this by taking some of the money we asked our parents for. for school reasons and using it for the games we play and we certainly can't repeat this habit anymore because times have changed and now we have to be able to control ourselves so that we no longer do things like that so we don't regret it when we don't have confidence.

Haha 😂,
You have managed to successfully take me far back to my high school days, I wasn't involved in gambling back then (yeah, sure thing I was actually raised properly as I didn't even know what the word "gambling" meant as at that time), because I never hear, and neither do I have any friend who was into it.
But I remember vividly there were some group of cult boys who were always being chased around by the police like ones or twice every month in the school, this guys will come to school, but will never step their feet inside their class, they were just going to hang around the school premises, or even in the bush around the school there and play a card game called "whot whot" all through the school hours, and when the school dismisses, they will come out and go home.

There was actually a time a serious fight broke out in our school that time due to the gambling activities of this cult boys, they bet money and one supposedly cheated and won, and when it was discovered that he cheated, he was asked to return all the money he won, but he refused, that was how fight broke out, which later metamorphosed into a general riot in the school, everyone ran for their dare life until police came for bring calm in the visinity.
Crazy old times and memory I must say, I and hope those guys have changed for the better where ever they might be right now (if still alive actually).

Yes, that's right, it's a red line that shouldn't be crossed. Moreover, in my opinion, such actions will not improve the situation, they will only make the situation worse. However, maybe for those who are addicted, maybe they can definitely do crazy things like what you said, namely stealing, because in my opinion, when the action is successful and is not discovered, there is a possibility that the perpetrator will be even bolder, for example stealing other people's money or robbing that harms other people. However, no matter how clever we are at hiding the rafflesia flowers, they will also be smelled, therefore, in my opinion, such actions should not be carried out, I myself like to gamble but have never done anything that is detrimental to other people, because I still have my own limits.

I myself once did something crazy for gambling, namely spending all the salary I got, from the start of gambling everything was fine. However, with gambling which has a strong temptation and attraction, in the end I lost self-control which caused almost all the salary I earned to be lost, but luck was on my side so it reversed more than the losses I experienced, from there I learned not to gamble excessively. and must be able to restrain oneself so as not to lose self-control when gambling.
That line is slippery, man. Whether it's a few cash from your parents or more, stealing puts you in danger. You might get away with it, feel like you're gaming the system. The reality is, guilt and anxiety? A weight you can't shake. It consumes you and stains your spirit. Trust me, consequences eventually follow

You gambling your paycheck away then somehow getting it back is a dangerous narrative, pal. The gambler's fallacy; thinking your luck is special. Indeed, the house always wins. Players are more likely to lose money as they play. Your tale is a highlight reel to attract more people. Gambling can be entertaining, but you must know your boundaries.  Instead of chasing the high, practice self-control. Real victory is leaving when you're ahead, the secret to not losing everything

Yes, it is true that stealing anything can endanger us, because in my opinion there must be a response to every action. It's not even just stealing, of course when someone is addicted to gambling there are many things they can do to make money so they can gamble again, and it is clear that this action is driven by an irresistible urge to gamble. I really appreciate myself, because while I was gambling I never did any bad actions or things that harmed other people, such as stealing money from my parents or other people, except by risking all my salary on gambling. It's true that everything you do in the future will have consequences and maybe it could be worse than what we did before.

yes, it was a very bad incident, because of the loss of self-control when gambling, but now I can gamble well because I have had bad experiences and think clearly when gambling so that the same thing doesn't happen, because of big wins at gambling Even this can be obtained even with a small betting amount if we are lucky when gambling.

I remember having make some bets with friends on some sport or random events during my scolarity, but unfortunately the gambling culture is not very developed in my country. And people don't like that very much, because it implies to have to accept, or sometimes to claim, money to someone you know when you win. And people don't like that, but in countries where betting is common, people should find that more natural and are not uncomfortable with it I guess.

With this your concept that is why I always emphasize on that gambling is something we learn from childhood and the nobody transfer the knowledge of gambling to us or teach anybody gambling so that is why I always say that whoever that is gambling nose what is doing because it is started from when it was a child not now for them to start betting when there are in school I think about they have knows the rules because they started initially when there are small to play Gamble so I don't blame anyone for that but I will tell you that you should not take this as a good story for yourself, because gambling is not something someone have to be proud of
I believe there is a lot of truth to what you are saying. Gambling is widely regarded as an illicit issue, and it is not commonly taught in schools or at home. So it's not surprising that people have misconceptions about it. And, yes, many people begin gambling at an early age, which can lead to problems later in life. Which is why I believe that more efforts should be made to ensure that people have the right mentality about gambling, particularly young people who are always inquisitive and eager to learn about things, especially those that they are taught are beyond their jurisdiction.
An early exposure to gambling is always dreadful to the person because there are so many do and don't that he or she will fail to abide with. The basic concept that every young gambler goes with is the taught that they can make good profits through then gambling but I believe that's the whole twist to the taught because with such mentality about gambling, one could end up being useless as he will always running and chasing after lost winning because do the lack of orientation.

God is great
You could still laugh at those memories.
We've all done stupid things when we were kids. The kids today are still doing these crazy bets, skipping classes, and probably worse than what we have done before. The technology they know is more advanced than what we have.

There was a report in the local newspaper that the kids betting on the Fortnite game they play. One kid had to steal his mother's purse, which in the report was her wedding ring inside the purse was pawned so the kid could keep playing.
Most of us we started gambling at very tender age that led us to do stupid things just to raise money to play gambling. For some people who started gambling this way it was easy for them to play gambling without having any problems while some people got addicted and are still struggling from coming out of their addiction. The easiest way if becoming addicted to gambling is when people starts gambling by peer group,  the friends people  keep. Thst is why parents needs to monitor their children to know if they are in the right environment,  or with the right people they call friends.

During my middle school, when our teacher is not around or did not teach that day, one of my classmate would always bring cards. He and his friends would play different kinds of games without betting any money. They just play for fun and for pass time while we do study. Although it looks fun to join, but I just watch them play and I did not particpate since what they are doing is against our school rules. It's always important to respect the rule and boundaries of the school. And always be aware of the risks and consequences of what you are doing.
This is one of the things that made middle school very fun. Seeing your classmates play and have fun in the class but not getting involved is one of the highest forms of discipline so far because it's not easy to resist such a form of play, especially in a case where your friends are also among them. 
 
If money is not involved in the card game, then there might be less punishment for the students if they are ever caught playing the card game in class, but one funny thing that usually happens during this time is that sometimes you might be unlucky and a teacher walks into the class instead of punishing those who are only involved in the game; they will go ahead and punish the whole class.

Honestly so far and as long as I've known or been involved in gambling I don't think I've ever done anything too crazy in terms of betting, and maybe there are some people or gamblers who go to any means just for the sake of winning, but as we know that is the wrong way. I admit that I've also gambled amounts that were beyond my means but it wasn't as crazy as when you gamble away all your life savings for just one spin like the case being discussed on another page.

This means that I risked an amount of money that I could not afford to lose for nothing more than experimental purposes and wanted to prove whether the amount had an effect on the results or not, but it turned out that it had no effect at all, which meant that I still lost, So in the end after that I was no longer interested in trying some things that were beyond my ability which now makes me gamble with the amount I can afford to lose only, and sometimes it also depends on my desire, or that means even though I have money ready to lose in gambling but if for example I am not interested in gambling then I will not do it, but maybe someone else's story will be different.

I never stole money from my parents to place a bet, for me it was a red line that should not be crossed. It’s good that I didn’t do this, my conscience is clear now, but I knew such cases among my surroundings, I thought that they did something very bad and really upset their parents.

As a kid and teenager, I've done that but I never did it with other people but only my parents. Yes, it was a wrong thing to do but it's just me that did naughty things like that to the money of my parents.

That experience of yours was sad but that's how it is and you didn't anticipated that she'll have to break up with you for some reasons. Well, I hope that you have already recovered from that as relationships are hard to forget when you love truly the person that have been with you through thick and thin.
No matter how poor the people here are, stealing our parents' money is like a childhood memory that makes us remember our previous economic conditions. But in some of the gambling that I did, the craziest thing was betting using money that was supposed to pay school fees, but I used it to buy lottery tickets because I was encouraged by a friend's win the previous day who managed to get money in large multiples.

The amount of money to pay my school fees (around 12 years ago) was $10 for one month... this included subsidies because I lived as a poor person and was assisted by the government for my education. I bought a lottery ticket for IDR 20000 or around $2 at that time.

This experience also meant that I had to not buy food at school for 2 days, because the lottery ticket I bought failed to win a prize. A little crazy, because I live in difficult economic conditions. Luckily I didn't go all in to buy the lottery ticket.

Sports betting, that was mine fondest memories as me and my mates, will go and bet against each other, P2P on games like basketball will the little money we have. Or play some card local card games and then we collude and cheat a classmate that is rich and a lot of money that time.

But at the end of the day, we share the money, our winnings and we go to local arcade and play till night. Those where my memories, and still lingers as some of my mates are no longer here. But for those who are still here, we sometimes talk about it when we meet occassionally.

Of course, as a gambler for many years, lots of experience during elementary to high days. But even if I'm already working, me and may friends will go out on our lunch break and go to the nearest casinos and play until 1 pm and then go back to work again.

Or instances that we will spend more than the allotted break time as we all enjoy. But for childhood memories, there's a lot as well, bringing cards in school and then we will gamble with a game similar to baccarat and we call it "lucky-9".

Childhood memories like that were nostalgic and you'll just laugh at it when you get to the point of getting older when you try to remember it.

Everyone has their own moments like this if pertains to gambling and some may even say that they've picked some money from their parents pockets just to gamble.

One crazy moment of mine when I thought that I can really live a well off life by just doing gambling and I did it for a few days but no can do.
I never stole money from my parents to place a bet, for me it was a red line that should not be crossed. It’s good that I didn’t do this, my conscience is clear now, but I knew such cases among my surroundings, I thought that they did something very bad and really upset their parents.

If we take from the craziest stories, I had one story that I don’t really like to remember. It was a long time ago that I started dating my first girlfriend, I really liked her and I decided to surprise her and saved money to go on vacation to the Red Sea with her. At this time, I really loved playing roulette and bet almost all my money on red and almost lost it. Through wagering, I was able to return the bet amount. I had a cold sweat at this time and closed the game. She did not suspect anything at that moment, but a few days later she wrote that we were breaking up and in the end we did not go on this vacation. In general, I almost lost our money that we had been saving for a long time.
As a kid and teenager, I've done that but I never did it with other people but only my parents. Yes, it was a wrong thing to do but it's just me that did naughty things like that to the money of my parents.

That experience of yours was sad but that's how it is and you didn't anticipated that she'll have to break up with you for some reasons. Well, I hope that you have already recovered from that as relationships are hard to forget when you love truly the person that have been with you through thick and thin.
