It might seem that way (being over controlling) but, it’s your kids and it’s important you train them the way you want them to grow and so, it becomes how they model their life.
Kids are such a handful but, it’s the job of a parent to contain all their energy and curiosity.
A little more exposure isn’t always a bad idea and am not talking about gambling here but, social life. Letting them experience certain things breaks the gaps or adrenaline that pushes them to try out certain things when they finally get opportune.

When it comes to gambling it's obvious that 18 years is the minimum required age for anyone to start gambling, and as long as they are below the age of age of 18 they shouldn't even get a taste of it because gamble can sometimes have emotional impact on our lives which children below the age of 18 aren't ready for. You can have them experience some other things but not gambling while they are still young. Though some children are smart and would understand that truly gambling is not a good practice for them but others out of curiosity would want to sneak and play, at first they might see it like every other game but slowly it consumes their consciousness and they'll want to keep playing.

Its considered to be the legal age when it comes to various things or simply turns out that main basis which is 18-21 years old on which its not really that limited to gambling but also into other things as well on which it is really that needing up that proper age or maturity for someone to deal on with but we do know that not all the time this thing would really be that followed yet due to easy access that we do have today then it would be that impossible that we will really be able to completely stop into those young people would really be curious and will really be finding a way or method on which they would be able to deal up with
it despite with those age restrictions or prohibitions. This is why as a parent then we should really be that attentive on whatever our kids that been secretly been dealing on with and telling them or educate
them on what are the things that must be avoided.

Yes of course gambling should never be done in front of children. Because we know, children always love to imitate. And if you gamble in front of them, they will be influenced by it and they will show interest in it before their conscience is complete and gradually try it themselves And in case of gambling you lose a lot then it has a big effect on your mind and the effect it can have on your family members is that they are likely to be harmed and become mentally disturbed. can So in these cases you should keep yourself under control and gradually if you become addicted then you should get out of them and come back to the normal lifestyle. Because we know it is not possible to continue this in all cases.

~ However, on to the topic. If the children are adults, the power of the parents is already lost, but if we speak positively, adult children still respect their parents. It is already ridiculous to talk about power. Cut the umbilical cord of children if they are adults; this will make them independent. You need to be educated by your example. As are the examples, so are the children.

The children of many responsible parents suffer from various addictions despite the fact that their parents were never interested in drugs, alcohol or gambling. Parents can be role models while their children are irresponsible or even immoral . So it's not so much about the example that parents set for their children, but rather the environment of the child, regardless of their age. I believe that parents need to limit their children not only from dangerous entertainment, but also try to control their environment, which can influence their children to a greater extent than the parents themselves.

This is why as a parent you need to know the friends of your child by allowing them to come around during weekend so that you can study and understand the kind of person they are and their backgrounds. Also parents should always spend time with their children and know how to make them tell you everything you need to know so that nothing will be hidden from you.

Environment plays a major role in our children's life but the parent has a major role to play in order to make the child grow up without being influenced by his environment. Life is all about choice.

In general, if a child wants something badly, no one can prevent him, even a parent with authority. The same applies to understanding the risks of gambling, knowledge about the harm of drugs or alcohol.

I agree to this because with many things available for a child, they can search for what they want to know or start to use that. Their parents will not know what they do especially if they are with their friends. And parents now less care to their child because they are busy with their work and that will makes the relation between parents and child will not close. If parents not realize about that, they will lost communication with their child and that will make their child search for other people who can close to them but that people will not always gives a good effect to that child. We see many children doing bad things without their parents know and cause their life is trouble. When their parents know about that, they will just regret why their child can do that but they are not realizes that is because of parents can gives attention to their children.

No matter how mature a child is, for his parents he always remains a child. Besides, even if in the eyes of the child the authority of parents has decreased, it does not mean that he has become older or wiser, it rather means that he is trying to follow his choice. Whether these choices are good or not will be known much later. Personally, I don't see anything wrong when parents try to protect their adult children from possible addictions, because we all know a lot of stories when children foolishly cross the line of the law, become gambling addicts, use alcohol and drugs. Some of these people do not live to the age of 35.

In general, it is true that children should not be allowed to gamble. However, children are curious and ask a lot of questions, and it would probably be wrong not to give them answers to their questions. Children can ask a variety of questions about gambling. Most likely, children will be interested in the possibility of making a profit. This will be especially true for teenagers who are close to adulthood. And the main thing here is to warn such teenagers against incorrect and naive conclusions regarding quick profits. You need to tell them about the risks associated with gambling and that these risks can lead to extremely unpleasant consequences.

Early knowledge is important. But young people are always difficult to tell or prohibit. Naturally, they will know about gambling from the people around them. But telling the concept that gambling is not good for a child who has not earned an income is the job of parents.
As much as possible, do not gamble in front of children so as not to raise questions and curiosity from them. Children who are curious and when they ask do not get satisfactory answers will always find out to satisfy themselves.
Introducing the risks of gambling is the first step that might prevent children from gambling.

Ok, you try to hide that you gamble as long as possible to avoid curiosity. But what will you do when your kids turns 18? Come to him and try to explain everything that you have prohibited, hidden or said "only adults can do" ? At such an age, the authority of parents isnt as high as used to be. I bet kids at such wont even listen to parents anymore. Because why should then, as they are adults already.

Why parents should consider explaining and showing examples of gambling, instead of simply not gambling in front of then - because there is a huge gap but little time between "to early to know" and "to late to explain". Lots of parent dont notice that or dont understand that. Imho, when the kids are 15-16, it is to late to educate them and act like a strict parent. You wont even notice how fast time passes and how quick a kid with "mommy, daddy please help" attitude turns into rebellious teenager who hates everything and does everything opposite parents say.

Yes, it is really that something which is really that hard to isolate on which simply means that on the moment that you do try to avoid them but with the current accessibility that we do have today due to technology and other friends or other people then there's always the tendency or chance that your kids would really be that still ending up on having that kind of potential engagement due to the fact that young people are really that too highly reactive when it comes to new things that they would encounter. On the time that they've seen something new then they would really be that tending to do it or test it out.

Just like on what i have said above that as a parent then no one would really be liking for their kids to be that becomes a gambler because as parents we do know on what are the probabilities
that you might get addicted. If you are that sensible parent or someone whose responsible then you will really be avoiding them as much as possible.

We are getting back to education and parenting again. Look what I did, named table games I know, explain differences of it. At the moment of explaining poker combinations, I have already noticed my kid being bored and dreaming when it will be a good moment to sneak away from me. The kid saw as playing poker, and even though the game looked fun, my kid has said "Oh, you are playing poker" and went watching Disneys Frozen cartoon. Zero interest to gambling were given. However I have explained how money are involved into gambling. My kid has money, even a bank card, knows how to use internet and search. But I have never noticed paying any interest to gambling. I dont allow pets right now, but my daughter is saving money to buy a kitten. Kitten is hell of expensive. Here you are - easy solution to get kitten faster with help of gambling. But, she is trying to get necessary amount by helping at the house, from presents, selling (selling to me lol) pictures she drew.

We can always try our best to make sure that our kids have the best that they want in life, and we can also try to restrict the kind of information they get their hands on, but we can't completely control that. Just as you have outlined, the use of social media makes the parental control job a little bit difficult.

Even if you try to reduce the amount you allow them to have access to for their upkeep, if they still want to spare some that could be used for gambling, they can still do that as long as they have time to go out and mingle with friends. Everything can be made possible.

Depends where you live. In my country kids can't play with slots, lotteries, and even online they would need to commit and identity theft, which isn't easy to pull off, and even harder when someone is a kid.

I have 2 kids, and it's never easy to controll what they see but they still don't have social media and i wouldn't even allow them to have that before they are 18. I might seem like over controlling, but when they are adults they have time to be responsible for themselves, but before that, i am responsible and i slowly grow their responsibility on what's appropriate to their age. Kids need limits from adults, otherwise they are burdened by trying to set their own limits, even though they aren't mature enough for it. All because parents were too busy to take care of it, or too lazy, or just didn''t care.

I see many underage children who are still in school at betting places by buying lottery tickets or other bets, and from here it is clear that gambling will always be difficult to remove from the sight of children.
In addition, there are now many online casinos that are fiat-based and make it easy for anyone to access them, for example in the country where I live there are quite lot of problems related to school children who like to play slots and they are generally known to use fiat-based online casinos because deposits and withdrawals are much easier.
In the development of the era and technology that has increased significantly from time to time like this, I sure that in the future gambling will become one of the largest industries that develop digitally, we will see lot of madness among young people who like to gamble and can even get addicted.
Without us as parents showing gambling activities to children, there will still be potential in the development of children who know gambling, this kind of thing is very difficult to eliminate and overcome.

It is not always possible to monitor the children using their mobile devices, because at your age they are a necessity, and with the number of social media platforms, we no longer know what they are really doing.

So the only thing we can do is educate them on this kind of thing that it is not good for children like them, so that at least they have an idea or familiarization that it will not do anything good if a minor does it.

It is very unlikely that we can monitor the activities of our children all day long, because we ourselves have our own activities to do. Some parents may be able to monitor their children's activities but they don't do it themselves, maybe they hire someone else to supervise them by paying attention to what their children do when they are not under parental supervision.
It is true that all parents can do is educate their children as best they can so that they do not make the wrong decisions in having something like seeking entertainment or pleasure for themselves. On the other hand, I myself do not dare to gamble in front of my children, however I will hide it because I think this is behavior that they should not see.

That is true. Compared with our childhood, current kids have way more sources of information. Parents hide that they gamble, while kids already know what gambling is and gamble secretly Cheesy

Everyone stay silent until bad things happen. I was always trying to say that educate and explain is better than bad or hide. Why everyone think, that if a kid saw or knows what is gambling, he will immediately run to gamble? And if he really did that? Is that really that bad if he has lost all of his money? Better he learns that bitter lesson now, than he is 25 and he looses salary, takes loan and goes into more problems.

I dont think that a kid will use gambling as a solution if he lack money for something or wants to become rich. He has parents after all, who must carry him on from 0 to 18 yo. But later give more of a support, than fully maintain his life. Well, a kid might also be simply stupid. Gamble all the money, steal, get involved into criminal and etc. But that is not because he saw his parents gamble. These are his genes Cheesy

The availability of the internet and smartphone devices is making harder for parents to protect their kids from having access to all kind of activities that could be harmful to them, so being open about those dangers seems like the best strategy they can use, however it is important to not underestimate the dangers gambling present for underage people, as this is not only about the money that can be lost, it is a very well established fact that those that suffer from addictions began those behaviors as kids or as teenagers, while an adult person that began to gamble has very low possibilities of ever developing an addiction.

that's right, because sometimes children are already familiar with the internet or gadgets, even some elementary schools have involved gadgets in their learning methods. Although being open to them is one way to tell them to stay away from it, I don't think that means we have to deliberately gamble in front of them, I myself think I will tell them when they are old enough or have differences in terms of naughtiness that may change when they often gamble without their parents' knowledge. As parents, of course educating them is something that must be done, but with children who have entered school usually already have personal cellphones, maybe only a few parents will have or apply restrictions for their children to play their cellphones. Parents must be able to educate their children well but not by telling them about gambling because with good education they will definitely be able to distinguish between good and bad things for themselves later.

Children growing up today live in a digital environment. Tech-savvy, kids will come across all kinds of stuff online, including gaming. We cannot only strive to protect them from it; that is not practical. We must therefore educate them about it instead. Not to urge people to risk but rather to equip them with the information required for wise judgments. We must assist kids in grasping the hazards, possible repercussions, and reality that gaming is not a road to quick money.

Its about developing critical thought ability. Its about helping kids to make wise decisions, to challenge what they observe and hear, and to assess knowledge. This kind of education will really shield children from all kinds of life's obstacles, not only from gambling. Our children need to be empowered, not sheltered. We have to equip them with the means to confidently and ethically negotiate this complicated world. One clever child at a time, that is how we create a better tomorrow.

Dont you find it funny, that we talk so much that we should not gamble in front of kids, how dangerous addiction is, how easy it is to lose money, but we barely discuss what kids are busy with nowadays. It might be only with kids that are around me, but I think it is like that with all kids - they are busy with their own life, and dont pay attention (as much as we paid) to what adults do. With all that gadgets and internet, they have found a more interesting world than IRL. So even if we gamble in front of them, they will barely notice that while surfing in youtube or instagram. So for them to notice gambling and other things, we need to call them and do all of them in front of them on purpose.

That's quite right, the availability of internet and how parents usually allow their kids to get their hands on phone without parental guidance have make some kids to learn what they are not supposed to. For example, I caught one of my niece watching an erotic movie in her Chromebook while she was just eleven then, I just angrily picked the tab from her and go straight to show it to her mum (my sister) and told her, "look what your daughter is learning. "

There's one previous comment I made here, what I stated is that, if a kid actually finds out about something, it better for the parents not to lie to the kid, rather they should tell them the truth and inform the child about the risk of such thing and also why it's not good for their age.

It is not always possible to monitor the children using their mobile devices, because at your age they are a necessity, and with the number of social media platforms, we no longer know what they are really doing.
