Yeah this generation of kids are smarter and learn faster than you can imagine and most times they learn from what they see you do.and as a parent or guardian being responsible or not it's not advisable to do some certain things from this young ones because what they tend to learn fast is negative and wrong things.

So she seeing you play blackjack and later she wants to try it isn't new to her anymore cause she feels she's seen you and had learnt few tips to go about it,so mostly when gambling you should be far from your kids or engage them with something better to keep them away from the picture till your done gambling.

Sometimes you won't know what these young children are capable of doing until you watch them do it. I am usually amazed at how my nephews know the password to my phone even when I try to hide it from them. You will think they are not observing you but they are closely monitoring and learning. And they are smarter in using technological tools than even adults. So we need to be more careful.

When talking about gambling and kids, people should focus on teaching and giving right experience, than focus on possible addiction or focus on negative emotions. If a person thinks only about bad, exactly that thing is going to happen.

Teaching children about gambling should depend mainly on the age of the child. Children that are below 12 years and have no interest in gambling shouldn't be be exposed to gambling by their parents. You can only discuss it with them only if they asked questions or are exposed to it in school or through other means. It will be better not to gamble before them because they learn largely by observation.

But when you child is a teenagers, they should he unexposed to gambling and the dangers of addiction. At this age one can teach them how gambling works but don't encourage them to gamble. If they have gotten to gambling age and decide to gamble, that's okey but teach them how to be responsible.

- It is said that what children see in adults is what children will imitate. Until now, this kind of thing still happens, from home or outside the home, and is watched on TV or social media. So children should not be shown things that are not good in their eyes.

Now, if it cannot be avoided, it should also be explained properly since it can often be seen in ads on various social media platforms, especially Facebook.

Children can learns what they see from adult people so we as adult should be careful when we want to show something to them. We must not show adult activity to them because they can do what we do and they can search for more information using their smartphone. With the internet available in every where, that makes them get more information that they needs so they can try that by themselves or with their friends.

Besides that, they can also ask to their friend about what they see from adult people. They can share it and maybe try to do the same thing with their friends because they have a big curiosity about something. If parents can not educate them well, they can choose the wrong way that can effects to their life. Social media gives much effect to them as they often to use their smartphone to search whatever they want.

In today's modern era, we as parents must be extra careful in keeping our children from being influenced by bad things that will later affect their perspective on things or activities that we do when they are adults. or in other words trying activities that should not be intended for their current age, be it gambling or other negative activities, because we know that children's curiosity is very great and they easily remember things or activities that we can try together with their peers. therefore, as I have said, we must be extra careful, and as much as possible supervise our children's activities both inside the house and the activities they are doing outside the house, and most importantly the environment where they or our children are must be sterile from negative traits.

You know what can also traumatize a kid? If you cut of chickens head in front of them, or cut the throat of a ram in front of them. A lot of kids observe that, but that does not make them vegetarians, nor they did not grow up as a maniacs. Commenting on your post, it is a duty to keep on eye on emotions we show in front of them. That does not necessary has to be gambling related. Gamblers can show two main emotions, happiness or rage. Should we also not gamble in front of them to hide positive emotions? Or should we better teach them about emotions and behaviour?

Showing positive and negative feelings is healthiest part on the whole situation that gambler can do front of their kids, if they indeed choose to play in front of them.

Not showing emotions would implicate that losing or winning a fortune in gambling is normal behavior, and that can definitely be harming.

Kids idolize their parents and want to grow up like them. So witnessing their parents financial irresponsibility without having a clue why they do that would definitely make them copy it later subconsciously. And when they would lose, they would be completely lost and paralyzed by their feelings, meaning that those feeling wuould have control over them, because they are unequipped to deal with.

When talking about gambling and kids, people should focus on teaching and giving right experience, than focus on possible addiction or focus on negative emotions. If a person thinks only about bad, exactly that thing is going to happen.

Emotions is a good argument. We should not gamble in front of kids because we can show them negative emotions when we lose. But is gambling really the main thing here? If a person cant control emotions while gambling, he cant control emotions when did not gamble either. For example he can become aggressive when he is fired. What then, never told kids that you work? In this case better show yourself as a cool guy with cold head, and give someone else as an opposite example, just to show that gambling can be different, and that is why a kids should not gamble until he is an adult.

Hey gamblers' community, hope you're all doing great.
I wanted to convey my message here that gambling in front of our kids may put adverse effects on their growing minds and they may also take the wrong path and start gambling (either by asking you personally for funds or by stealing it in order to fulfill their gambling cravings).

I'm sharing this because I saw this issue with my kiddo who was once watching me gamble at a website playing blackjack and she started asking me more about the game. Then one day, she wanted to play it herself and asked me if she can go for it and I said "no, it's not your legal age to go for such games". So, it's better to keep our kiddos away from gambling and let them focus on their studies, else it'd actually ruin everything for the whole family if the kid takes the wrong path.

Yeah this generation of kids are smarter and learn faster than you can imagine and most times they learn from what they see you do.and as a parent or guardian being responsible or not it's not advisable to do some certain things from this young ones because what they tend to learn fast is negative and wrong things.

Better teach kids that gambling is for fun, not for money making, and show examples how they really can earn, and there will be much fewer problems.

In that case a kid could have a question, why someone has to play with real money just to have fun. This question sound very reasonable to me. After all, there are lots of other ways to have fun, without risking your money and possibility to end up in debts and with an addiction. What a parent should tell his child about that? I get your point about the necessity of drawing a line between gambling and earning. But my point is what is the argument to support precisely gambling as a way of having fun?

I have a pretty simple explanation for a kid in this case: "adults can use real money to gamble to have fun, when you grow up and have your own money, you can do with them whatever you want." And additional argument "adults can ride real cars, but because you are still young, you can ride only bicycle or car with pedals". But like you have said, there is plenty of ways to have fun, that is why kids wont pay much attention to gambling, as he will get fun from more simple things, the things that he understands.

My idea from the beginning was not to teach gambling as this is a way to have fun, but not to hide it on purpose, and if a kid ask, give explanation, give examples. I dont support teaching on purpose, but if kid noticed you gamble, just give an explanation of what you are doing. Instead of quickly closing browser or cleaning table from chips, cards or whatever is used to gamble.

Honesty is my motto. Kid are smarter than we think, and they deserve the truth, even about grown-up problems. Teaching is more than telling

Begin by calling gambling an adult activity. Driving and biking get you someplace, but one requires more responsibility. We must go deeper. Children observe and copy us. Show children that gambling, like any adult choice, has repercussions

Not to scare kids, but to educate critical thinking. Talk about risks, benefits, and self-control. Teach kids that even adults can make wrong choices, so we must be vigilant

Children are sponges. They embrace everything. We should teach them to ask the correct questions about gambling and life. We raise knowledgeable, responsible adults who make informed, not impulsive, decisions that way

I have once heard, that when kids are born and they are so wrinkled, that is because they are little old sages that are reborn in new body. Notice how they already know some things (like swimming) even though they arent taught about it, and devour information like sponged. So my motto is, while they and I can, I would try to give them as much experience as possible. And it will be their choice (when they are 18) what to do with that knowledge.

When my friends had a child, I often began to think - were our parents always reserved in front of us. Were they always calm and reasonable. And I understand that YES. And when we were children, we did not understand how difficult it was for them to keep themselves calm. And I understand that this means that it will be almost impossible for a gambler to pretend to be calm. Therefore, I am critically against gambling in front of children. Because children can be emotionally traumatized.

You know what can also traumatize a kid? If you cut of chickens head in front of them, or cut the throat of a ram in front of them.

If the parents are eccentric, they can emotionally traumatise the child not only by gambling, but in many other ways. And if the parents are calm, then the process of gambling can be without the absence of any emotions. Here the evil rather lies in what exactly can bring gambling parents. If they treat gambling as entertainment with associated costs, then no problem. But if they perceive them as a source of enrichment, then there is trouble.

But if one plays then one must be careful so that no child gets addicted to your game. I don't know how true that is, but even if I play it for fun, I still care that it's not Children are not around.

For fun, if the children must be there, why not go for the usual games so they may participate without affecting them? This fun of a thing in gambling is never a must especially if we have little children around, it is even more engaging and bonding for parents to game with their children in their leisure time rather than start gambling with money in the name of entertainment. I wonder what entertainment and fun can be more pleasing than having them in the company of your family. This calls for caution no matter how you feel about gambling but you can do whatever you like when your children are not around.

For those who do not know the value of this advice, it challenges the parent not to be too private when their children are around, gambling should not cause that, you can do whatever you seem private when you have the chance, but when they are around, I believe they need you, which also includes your spouse.

Children often try to imitate their parents in many ways. This also applies to addictions. Even if parents tell their child how bad it is to smoke, but they themselves do it, the child is very likely to smoke too. The same applies to gambling. If you do not want your child to do something certain, then do not do it in front of your child.

That because basically child will see from different perspective, they children will think that what their parents do is fun so it is natural for children to often imitate what their parents do.
Basically, logically this is kind of direction and learning, children naturally have fairly high curiosity and they try to try some new things that of course have never been done before.
Parents and people around them will play very important role in things like this, if want children with good development and are able to avoid all bad things, then it is the parents obligation to protect the child environment and also their views on all these bad things.
Sometimes there are some parents who don't really care about this kind of thing, they consider it normal and continue to do everything without any restrictions on their own children.

This week, looking at children, I was once again convinced that they copy many things that adults do, I would even call them little copy machines) In general, not only bets, but also other things we should do with caution in front of children. Well, on the other hand, I saw a lot of nonsense in my childhood, I often saw adults drinking alcohol, and smoking was common ... and probably it had a good effect on me, because I am indifferent to alcohol and do not smoke. So everything also depends on the upbringing of the child

What you experienced has a negative and a positive side .. obviously, both sides are equal!
The good side is that a person could choose a standard and morals they'd wanna follow contemporarily and they will easily stick to it, regardless of any prerequisites/societal influence. The focus and case study unfolds even more creepier when you see through the "LEFT PERSPECTIVE".
Peer influence is the strongest and disassociative ambition that ruin your life in a matter of TIME. There's definitely no way the child can overlook the regularities in their community. Again, unless the person has a perfect and repulsive self control, they can't escape the cold hands of developing a habit overnight.

That kind of attentions will lead them to focus and be correctly oriented, guardians/parents needs to always think for the best of their childrens and have that sets of examples that will keep those young minds away from any harmed of things like gambling which can quickly pollute the minds of those kids who thinks that by following what they are seeing from adults that surrounds them will give them the satisfcations without knowing what harm can be done since they don't have any idea of what they are doing.

That's how it happens, so Sometimes it's not so easy to Raise Children ,Teenagers , because they always come up with Something new and it's their day to day, some parents complain that their children are very naughty, but that Gives a Clue that it's a healthy child , and that they are spys, so in case they get to see games in online casinos, you just have to talk to them and Tell them why they Shouldn't play them , that for each Stage there are games for them , for Adults it's another thing , Always make them see Why they Shouldn't Do it.

In whatever you do, don't allow your kids to emulate anything bad from you... Do I really need to recap? No!
Children are wonderful creatures with a more receptive brain than an adult... They learn so fast by how much they see - that's exactly why the kindergarten level would use physical objects, pictures and diagrams to teach them. Don't worry about the practice - you'll be shocked to your bones that these kids are always watching you...beware!

Basically, we realize that we should only do good things in front of our children and thus,if we shouldn't gamble in front of children then it can be assumed that gambling is bad. But somehow,there are still many people who rely on gambling as an income, despite the fact that gambling is bad. Therefore, gambling will only be good to do as a pleasure or just betting with ready money to lose.

Because anyway, if we assume that children are not allowed to gamble, because basically children also do not have a steady source of income and they will easily lose everything and then get depressed because they are unable to control their emotions and anger.

Well, on the other hand, I saw a lot of nonsense in my childhood, I often saw adults drinking alcohol, and smoking was common ... and probably it had a good effect on me, because I am indifferent to alcohol and do not smoke. So everything also depends on the upbringing of the child, how much he can distinguish things that should not be abused, as well as white from black. Probably there are cases when children saw their parents playing gambling and then they had nothing to eat, so when they grew up, they never touched gambling. But I think there are not very many such examples in fact.

- It is said that what children see in adults is what children will imitate. Until now, this kind of thing still happens, from home or outside the home, and is watched on TV or social media. So children should not be shown things that are not good in their eyes.

They definitely tend to repeat a lot, but surely nor everything. Moreover, it really depends on the age of a child and his relationship with his parents. Sometimes children do the opposite, not like their parents. Or they do something their way to demonstrate their individuality and separation from the parents. I would say that talking to kids and explaining them the reasons of your own behaviour is the key.

I would also refrain and be extremely careful with the game in front of my children, actually that is why I never do this and generally prefer that no one sees me or interferes when I am playing, because the presence of children and other people disrupts my concentration and can have a bad effect on my potential winnings.

And also an argument against gambling in front of children, or anyone else for that matter, is that gambling can cause some pretty intense emotions in people that are often hard to control. And I don't think anyone wants to show that in front of their children, especially if it involves a strong negative reaction as a result of losing. So in addition to not setting an example for your children that you don't want them to repeat, you also need to remember that your children don't need to see you in states that you're not proud of.

Absolutely right. And this topic is very relevant. I know a man who smashed a mouse and keyboard on the table when his combination in poker could not get together to the right one for this guy to win. And although he was always calm and not irritable, but playing poker my friend seemed to change and could destroy something. And children perceive everything much more vividly than we do and it is unlikely that they will benefit from memories where their father or uncle destroys something in the house just because his expectations were not realized.

That last part of your statement, it will remain from the memories of that young child who witness your reactions when frustrations become out of hands, we needed to be more sensitive as those young minds that watching us can adopt that kind of aggressiveness, and same with how they can possibly adopt our gambling activities when they see things wide open in front of them.

Curiosity will developed and the next thing you know that they already playing or already involve with the game that they seen from us playing and enjoying, with their yong minds they are not aware of the risk but the experience that what they want to try.

It seems to me that if children see this kind of reaction in their parents during gambling they will not show interest in gambling. It will probably scare them. Besides, if a child has access to a computer he can find much more exciting entertainment than gambling. Nevertheless, I remain committed to the fact that children should not see their parent gambling, as they tend to repeat everything their parents do and accept it as the norm.

I would also refrain and be extremely careful with the game in front of my children, actually that is why I never do this and generally prefer that no one sees me or interferes when I am playing, because the presence of children and other people disrupts my concentration and can have a bad effect on my potential winnings.

And also an argument against gambling in front of children, or anyone else for that matter, is that gambling can cause some pretty intense emotions in people that are often hard to control. And I don't think anyone wants to show that in front of their children, especially if it involves a strong negative reaction as a result of losing. So in addition to not setting an example for your children that you don't want them to repeat, you also need to remember that your children don't need to see you in states that you're not proud of.

Absolutely right. And this topic is very relevant. I know a man who smashed a mouse and keyboard on the table when his combination in poker could not get together to the right one for this guy to win. And although he was always calm and not irritable, but playing poker my friend seemed to change and could destroy something. And children perceive everything much more vividly than we do and it is unlikely that they will benefit from memories where their father or uncle destroys something in the house just because his expectations were not realized.
