Topic: Minimum Age to gamble - page 4. (Read 3733 times)

Many people thing their was no need to restrict the kids to the gambling sites.But the kids also learn the game from the gambling and play to win more then their father.Many global based gambling sites doesn’t require the age as the break for the gambling.The developed countries doesn’t consider the gambling as the problematic for them.The children below 14 was strictly not allowed by the government an the gambling sites based on the law created.The parent gambler should not allow their children below 14 for the game,because at the age of 14 or low children doesn’t have capacity to take the decision.

No one cares about our children apart from ourselves as parents. And does the government care enough about children as the nation's successors? Not really and who knows how many small children are neglected and live on the streets as homeless people. And or does a teacher as a second parent at school care enough about our children? It doesn't seem like it, because when there is a problem they return it to their parents so that they can guide and develop them.

However and no matter how busy we are, our children and their future are still part of our responsibility as parents. So, take as much time as possible to participate in educating and providing understanding to children, especially in moral education, mentality, ethics and good understanding. We need to do this so that our children can be protected from everything that will have a negative impact on the child's growth and development.

This is why I said kids have to do their part too, the enforcement of the rules will never be perfect, in fact this cannot ever be the case, just look at all the major crimes that are committed, is every single one of those cases solved? Not really, in a perfect world this will be the case but we are not living in such a world, and if that happens with such important crimes then it is to be expected that lesser crimes and offenses have an even lower resolution rate.

I was just thinking exactly this while reading replies when I came upon your post . How underage kids still, likely using a fake identification, purchase and consume alcohol despite the age restrictions placed on the purchase and consumption of alcohol.
Having age limits is fine and a good step in keeping underage kids from indulging in adult activities but how well is the enforcement of such rules? There are underage kids who gamble as well as other adult activities as kids would always look for an avenue to do what they want.

We all have a part to play in enforcement of such rules and should deter such behavior whenever possible. Parents should be more aware of any change in their children’s behaviors and actions and nip in the bud, any potentially harmful behavior.

There isn't much difference between the ages of 18 and 21, the real point to note is that children below the age of 18 are also found guilty of gambling. How is it possible that kids aged 16 or below are accessing gambling sites, having the money to gamble and also bypassing the KYC requirements?

If we dig down, we will know that they are gambling using their parents' or big brother's account and also, they are being funded by their parents to gamble. Now if the children get the bad effects of gambling, do not perform well in their studies and become addicted to gambling, who is to blame?

It's the parents who are responsible for their kid's gambling, as without their consent and willingness the children and under ages won't be able to gamble.

Gambling sites have set a minimum age limit for gamblers but the gamblers themselves do not make those rules but school and college students below 18 years of age are involved in gambling. Especially when young children use mobile phones or PCs or tablets, they willingly participate in gambling, thereby spoiling their education and causing mental damage. Although Guardian Mahal is always worried about this addiction of children but they have nothing to do afterwards. Therefore, the minimum age limit in casinos or gambling sites should be 21 years or more so that boys and girls cannot participate in schools and colleges.

Well, when I refer to the fact that casinos and games of chance in general are for Adults and that this is fun, it is for adults, it is because basically that is what it is, a game for adults, because a very high degree of responsibility is enshrined and what can be done. For the good of everyone, then when a person who is a minor enters a casino, Whether online or Physical, things can get into trouble for everyone, because the only thing casinos do is be in trouble if a police commission or something If you start supervising them, it will not go well for them, because it is a serious offense to have a minor in a casino, and if a minor plays and wins, they cannot pay him because he is a minor, then everything that is with adult things for children is a failure, it should not be given, it is something that should not be Reciprocated because it is for Adult fun, so when minors exist Other types of games Where they do not include this from the caisno where they have more responsibility for everything .

For casinos, what matters most to them is the Opinion of their Clients, Obviously Adults, Because they consider Themselves Adults since they are responsible for their actions, and if they have a fault, they generally have to respond and not do it like that and let it go. to pass, that is why being of legal age is required, in some countries a person is considered to be of legal age over 21 years, because they are more mature and have more control of the things they can achieve, in You think that you are in South America and others say that you are considered of legal age at 18 years of age, so at least 18 years of age is when you can say that you are a person of legal age and that you have the right to enter a casino to What Fun could he have, and after that it is a problem that the person with what he does can respond to the things he does or does not do, but it is another matter, we no longer deal with a minor who what he brings to these places is a very big Problem.

You must be aware that every child under the age of 18 is still the responsibility of parental supervision, the role of parents is to provide education and morals for knowledge for children, parents must supervise children's activities regularly so that they are not involved in gambling, when parents neglect to supervise their children then The blame should be delegated to parents.

The government has made regulations limiting the age of 18+ in gambling and parents are supervising them to ensure that their children are not involved in gambling as long as they are still financial dependents of their parents or children under the age of 18+.

Which is why we cannot put all the responsibility on the shoulders of the parents or the governments, the kids also need to do their part and stay away from gambling out of their own volition as the number of ways in which they could get around the current measures that are put in place to prevent them to gamble are simply to numerous, and yet when a kid is found gambling the blame often goes to the parents, even when they have done nothing to encourage that behavior on their children and that seems unfair to me.

Most of the gambling sites and casino will always notify their customers that gambling is rated 18+ which is to notify all minors to desist from gambling. However, there are still underage people who merely looking at them, one can't be able to guess their right age because they've grown past their normal age. These set of people easily gamble in offline gambling platforms because they're not recognized as underage because of their very big side. Age is very important when gambling as minors are believed to be too fragile to make decisions when it comes to gambling and can't control their gambling habits.

Yes, that's right and the reason why official gambling prohibits minors from gambling is because the casino doesn't want to take the risk that one day it will be accused of illegal gambling because it accepts underage customers and I think this has also been explained by several users here and parents really have to be responsible. regarding their child's behavior to provide guidance to their child to stay away from any gambling and provide an explanation about the dangers of gambling and if that happens parents should not blame the gambling party because it is the fault of the parents who failed to provide insight to their own children.
For gamblers who are of a suitable age to gamble, there will be no guarantee that if they will gamble responsibly, age will not affect the adult mindset but it is all about principles If someone under age has strong principles, they will definitely have a big responsibility and not only in gambling alone even in all kinds of problems.

Should be warned when you find children who are under the specified age playing gambling but they are smarter in terms of tactics to circumvent the KYC requirements that are required.
Children who are banned do not want to listen or they only respond flatly because the person who warned them is not far from bad habits with their gambling.

The ones who should warn children about gambling are those who have not or have repented from gambling. Perhaps the warning given by such a person will be heard by children under the age specified as a condition.

That's right. Parents who accompany their children do not give an exemption to let a child do gambling. No specific law states that it is allowed. The government set this law to prevent the underage from learning to get used to gambling and to prevent them from early addiction. A child should enjoy playing and learning while they grow up and not in the presence of gambling.

Upon reaching the age of 18, that's when he can decide on his gambling journey. Whether he will be responsible or let the gambling addiction overcome him. As we all know, being responsible and having control over gambling can be gained through experience.

Just like Alchohol consumption which have an age limit for consuming it,  same it is with gambling many all the countries that approve for it gambling license have all followed to minimum age requirement needed to be able to gamble,  but just like every other government regulation and law,  there is always a problem of follow up with implementations and at that you must have to discover and follow the right part yourself and being able to protect yourself from becoming worst while gambling so for that you need to place your own limit even if and when the government already place such limits.

Most of the time,  some gamblers still went ahead to default in the age attainment before gambling and this has led them to a lot of problems both in online casinos and physical casinos but mostly online casinos since there is no mechanism to check whether or not the gambler is above 18 at the point of registration and the only way to confirm the age are through KYC which doesn't happen all the time.

Right. Anyone who gamble at a minor age will sure to be restricted from any legal gambling site, regardless if they have their parents to guide them. Otherwise, if the site go against with the law, it might be put into investigation until they will be restricted not to operate again.

However, gambling at the right age is still not enough to consider that he will be gambling responsibly. He should be oriented first on the risks of gambling, and how it can be beneficial when use as an entertainment and how it can ruin lives when used as a source of income.

The government already guideline the gambling site to fix the age for the gambler,because many kids get into the gambling and loss their school fee by hiding their parents.If the kids win the game,it may help them to support their studies in the next level.But the loss due to the less experience in the gambling the kids was loss their money in the gambling.So the gambling sites also enable the kyc for all the participation will help the less age kids to elimated at the beginning stage of the gambling.The kids who use the id of their parents will can’t be find by the gambling sites,but it’s very negligible in number.

Let me tell you something, even though online casinos may not have any system in place to check the actual date of births of those who create accounts on their casino unless they conduct a KYC which is something that not all casinos take into consideration unless in the case of suspension or operating above stated limits and maximums.

This has made it clear to all on the need to have attained the minimum age requirement to create an account on any casino, because sometimes some of those who engage in this kind of thing,  also make the mistake of crying out tomorrow if they become unable to get their account verify when KYC may be demanded for,  due to this caught in between,  we have to make sure that we always come clean before we think of creating an account and meeting the minimum age requirement is to the gambler's advantage.

I admire the countries that ban minors from gambling and the countries that also ban the use of credit cards in casinos. Because of these governments, you can see their true concern for the people and what will happen if they violate their prohibitions.

From any angle, it is not good to see that a child is gambling. We know that gambling usually does not really bring anything good to the majority, although I do not. All that is needed is to be wise in the decisions we make. Just gamble based on being able to triple the amount in any casino.

Unfortunately, several online casinos today only have it in their terms of service that underaged gamblers are prohibited from playing on their site, but it actually ends there as they don't take further steps to make sure they do not entertain underaged gamblers.
There are several underaged gamblers today who secretly use their parents of their elder sibling's government issued documents to verify their gambling accounts without the knowledge of the casino, most especially on casinos that do not engage their customers in video or live verifications.

And in terms of the above, i will not completely blame the casino, Parents and teachers at school have their different roles to play in the upbringing of this kids, if parents give their kids good attention as required, such kid will not end up gambling while underaged.

So, this is my advice to parents to look after their wards, be interested in whatever they are interested in and teach them what is right to do for their age and what is not right, this will save parents the stress of trying to get their ward out of gambling after they have become addicted.

In all aspects, the role of the government is needed to be able to emphasize and make regulations regarding this matter. Indeed, currently there is a large or small amount of children's involvement in the world of gambling, it exists. and this is because the use of technology is currently continuing to increase and as we know almost every child has a cell phone so the possibility of children being able to access online gambling is always there.

However, the government is still not optimal in implementing it. If it does not involve the role of the child's parents, this problem will never be resolved, because they are the ones who can supervise every activity and step taken by the child. Apart from that, education is needed in every school regarding the negative impacts of gambling. And I am sure that with the role of the government, school agencies and parents, the problem of children's involvement in the world of gambling can be resolved.
