Parents have particular challenges on the internet, a vast ocean of information. Instead of rigorous surveillance, consider education and open dialogue

I don't think protecting kids from online activities like gambling works. Could we teach them online safety instead? It's about teaching children the risks, benefits, and excitement of gambling in a controlled atmosphere. Create an environment where kids can openly discuss these things with their parents

Supporting responsible, pleasurable gambling may also teach. Parents can explain probability, risk management, and personal money. This technique lets parents turn a potentially negative experience into a positive, informative one without condemning the activity
It is better to have an open dialogue with children rather than monitoring them closely because that can make them uncomfortable and they will desire to rebel and try what they want. If that happens, it will be difficult for parents to guide him back.

It may be difficult to protect children from online activities. Still, if parents can guide their children on how to use the internet well, they will understand that the internet can be used for good and bad things. They will not want to try to do bad things because it could impact their life. And as much as possible, parents don't need to teach their children about gambling so that they don't get the impact of gambling.

And parents should divert them to other things that are more useful for their lives so they don't experience bad things like other teenagers. This still requires parental supervision because children still need guidance from their parents to differentiate between what is bad and what is good. If children can be directed towards good things from a young age, they will not try to do things that might have a bad impact and will even stay away from them.

To an extent mate, I disagree with your opinion about triggering the interest of kids in gambling if we continue to hide our gambling  activities from them and that's because there's no way kids will be triggered to be interested in an activity they know nothing of. The only thing that can trigger kids to be interested in gambling is when we show them little about gambling but refuse to explain to them how it works fully and that's when they'll start building their interest just to know exactly how it works. Gambling in front of kids can not be justified in anyway and that's because of the fact that it have more grave consequences than the advantages.

In other to maintain the sanity of kids, it's very important that as adults we don't engage in any gambling activity in front of the kids in other not to ruin their future.

The gambling parents who hide the gambling to their kids also have some gambling addiction in later days.Their kids get to know about the gambling by their friends or relatives even if the parents try to hide the game.So the parents can also teach their kids about the gambling by their own way,it help their kids to understand the gambling addiction and the consequences of their gambling addiction.This will help their kids to play the gambling without being addicted.The kids can get help from their parents at the easiest way,the friends may not help your kids at the important time of the gambling.Parents are more accessible to their children gambling.
There's no secret that wouldnt really be busted up, it might took long but sooner or later it would really be something that would be known and this is something that you should really be getting rid of it
as on the time that your children isnt really that wary on the things that you are doing as a parent.Unless if you would really be having those confessions and telling on the things you've been doing then
you wont really be quitting anytime soon.This is why it would really be that best that you should really know on how to deal up with that kind of behavior or activity on which it would really be just that better that you should be making out those kind of steps on which it wont really be putting your kids at harm.

The parents had huge responsibility while the children grow in this society,because the society was corrupted now.The parents should teach the good things from their early years,because they will grow based on that.The parents can teach the gambling to their children at the earliest stage and say all the risk in the gambling site.Because when they get the gambling knowledge from their friends,it was not sure they teach your children about the risk in the gambling site.Playing gambling is not the offence,only if they loss the huge money into the gambling will create the financial burden to their family at the end.So they should play responsible gambling in real life.
That's why the task of parents is now more difficult because their children are facing technological advances so that they can find out about gambling using the internet. And if parents don't supervise their children, their children can start gambling using their devices without their parents knowing. And it has become a problem for his parents because they will continue to gamble secretly. Especially if their friends also gamble so they can gamble together while spending time playing. That is why supervision is needed from parents so that their children do not find out about gambling or other things because once they find pleasure in gambling, they will come back to gambling again and they can experience gambling addiction later. Parents also do not need to teach their children about gambling, especially if they are still teenagers and cannot control themselves because this can be seen from their daily attitudes and behavior.

Quite hard to make a correct decision to gamble or not to gamble in front of the kids, as it is really hard to predict in who the kid will grow up. Our life changes to fast. Each 15-20 years generation have new things of interest, hobbies, trends and etc. Of course it is not advices to gamble in front of kids on purpose, to force them watch, maybe learn. But doing something special to hide the fact of gamble isnt necessary either. If we bother much hiding act of gambling, it will trigger rise of the interest from the kid. If we dont do it frequently, the kid will take is as «another parents daily routine» and wont pay much attention to it.

Now days it's interesting day by day. Gambling is increasing. Many are addected and taking it as profession. Many know what it is. If you parents is a gambler then at the adult age they will teach you abou gambling because they know that is a great source of earning.

You have a point in what you said. Because of the technology we have today, it will be a bit difficult for parents to monitor their children in such situations. Especially in the neighboring provinces where people live that are not so updated with the technology we have today.

But as long as we can monitor our children, let's do our best in these situations so that we can still guide our children in online gambling. And if we are gamblers, we should also try not to show it to our children. or explain it correctly to them so that they can understand the pros and cons of it.
Besides that, what their children understand cannot always be understood by their parents and their parents need more time to learn it. Parents have not been able to keep up with technological developments because many of them are too busy with their work so they do not learn more about this developing technology.

But parents can still supervise their children when they are with them and guide them so they do not take the wrong path. Parents should be close to their children so that if their children are experiencing any problems, they can tell their parents and ask for advice or solutions to solve the problem. In this case, parents need to actively supervise and guide their children well, especially since their social interactions are now very complicated for parents to understand.

That's right, we need to give children a clear understanding of what is happening around us.
And how dangerous are addictions. It is best to do this using examples. Now we live in a time when, thanks to the Internet, it is easy to find videos where young people give interviews and tell what uncontrolled gambling has brought them to.
Such an example shows more clearly than any how difficult it is to get out of such an addiction, and unfortunately how easy it is to get into it.
I would not dare showing them anything.
Like you said, the era now of internet is where kids could easily access these things. Explaining it to them or showing it at a young age might worsen the case. I'd rather leave them in the dark for now. Don't let them see what we are doing and try to check their phones, tablets, or computers if there is one hint of gambling in it. Delete it as fast as possible because the next time they visit it could end up differently.
Also, don't give them access to anything money related, the best possible way to do this is to make them innocent about money until the time where they reach the right age where they could manage their own money.
It's because once they knew how to handle money, they might try doing something stupid and gambling is one of those. Up until now, I am not letting my kids have their own certain amount of money. What they receive from other people during Christmas is being handled by their mother. Because once they start knowing about how money works, they might come a time that they will start lying and keeping those just so they could satisfy their habits.
Gambling in from of kids is no good, the children will learn how to gamble very fast because they have already seen their parents gambling. Gambler should learn to keep it as secret for their children because the children will easily learn to gamble and there is nothing the parents can do about it when the children have grown older.
Moreover the chicken will be up age that they can know good and bad but as long as they have seen their parents gamble it will be hard for them to stop. It is just like the father have thought the children how to gamble. If a gambler want to help his child, he should not try to gamble in their front because it will not be good for them and when they start they might also becomes and addicted gamblers.

Those lies could help, but not forever. Sometimes humans forget what they said previously about a certain question. When that same question is repeated other times, weeks later, the recipient of the question may not give an answer that matches his previous answer, if he lied. The truth sticks to the brain, and we don't need to bother about fabricating something to say. They'll be nothing to lie about computerized objects moving in the screen. The child sees the avatars, and characters in the game. S/he may be wondering why daddy is seriously playing such games, that looks like it's meant for kids. Looking at it they know it's a game, why a grown adult is playing such a game.

Actually, the child may not be satisfied with the answer; truth or lies. So, they'll have to asks again some other times. When it doesn't correspond, the child may remind us of our previous answer, the lie didn't match. Creating more confusions. I think they'll should be more explanations to do, when in such a condition, a child being inquisitive of our gambling activity. Drawing an image, in the child's mind, of the quality and importance of the game, without mentioning gambling, that made you to engage in the game every day. Explanations makes confusing things clearer and brighter for a child. Let them see a reason. It will reduce the rate the child repeats his or her questions. While at it try diverging the discussion to other life situations and bringing it back to the main topic. With a good interpersonal skill, the gambler doesn't need to hide and play gambling. Unless the child distracts us from being attentive in the game, changing location will be fine.

I think fathers should pay full attention to this precaution, because if they really think that the future of a child is more important than anything else then I don't think they should forget something that should be done like diverting the answer to a question that a child asks you, but if a father always forgets to do this then I think there is another reason or they don't really care about their child. I don't think we need to go too far in making up things like this, because it is clear that the main point that a father should do is that they must keep gambling activities out of the sight of their children, there is no other reason because this is the best thing to do if they feel that the future of their children is far more important than anything else.

By doing this, it is clear that there will be no follow-up from other questions because a child will never again see your activities that are too serious in looking at the screen because you can really divide gambling time with time for a child. Usually a child will be easily distracted by other things they see, and that means that what you can do is take their attention away from gambling and divert it to other things that can make them feel happy, with this in my opinion it is less likely for them to ask you again about what they saw before, on the other hand you have also said this that the point is that parents must be able to distract a child.

The future of the child is very vital, and every parent need to keep it as a top priority, because we know the implication of gambling addiction to a loved one. Diverting their attention with stories help with kids around me, the only hard part of it is the distraction. Wanting to play the game or watch me play the game. Those requests leave me with no other option than to gamble during their bedtime. As it'll help me concentrate and make the right decision. The noise and cry of a child easily distract my attention and could lead to a mistake. As I said, previously, since money and the child's health are involved, it's crucial to be attentive towards my gambling decisions. Because misbehaving could cost the happiness of the child, if money runs out in gambling and none left to settle his bills.

Risking it wouldn't be nice, all full attention is needed to succeed as a father in gambling. Offering the child new devices for playing video games can help keep the child busy, while we regulate his screen time. Not to get him addicted. Kids are beginning to spend lots of time on screen, so we must be careful on diverting the child's thoughts using this strategy. Allowing a child's distraction would cost the gambler a lot of brain power, to moderate himself and the child. Looking at the odd, gambling when the child is not around us is the best option. It enables the gambler to focus and not bother about talking to a child while gambling. Then increases his chances of winning, not just it, being fully in control of his decisions matters a lot.

Well really, the screens of telephones, tablets and everything that has to do with children, is something risky, it is something that we must do with great caution, therefore whenever we want to do whatever it takes to be able to generate a better vision Of things, children are creatures who now depend a lot on their parents to do anything, at the moment they are given a phone or a tablet, they already depend on those devices to keep them quiet and entertained, something for them to do. Parents have dinner, and although that is very comfortable, it is not the idea, children, 'for those who decided to have children, things must be handled from another point of view, first of all they are children who need attention, they are children who need to be Listen, they are children who need to have a lot of vision of things when they are going to do it, a screen can help them develop other types of skills, but a child needs attention, playing , playing sports , lov e, all this is just what he needs. before having a phone or tablet.

Nowadays a parent can say that they give a phone to a child so that they can keep track of how they are doing at school or in a Particular activity, but basically things when seen from that point of view can be somewhat misleading. See in another sense, I personally have always realized that a person always needs to do the best they can to generate the best of all entertainment for their child, stimulate their intelligence, stimulate their creativity and work their motor part that It is so essential, if a person does not work on that in their children, well I think they are not doing anything, that is what parents should do and much less play with them, unless they are overcrowded and are blamed for What is being played and why is it a game for Adults , Because sooner or later the internet Will show them.

And if we are gamblers, we should also try not to show it to our children. or explain it correctly to them so that they can understand the pros and cons of it.
Currently, it is very difficult to monitor all activities on cellphones, children can easily find out any information via their cellphones without their parents knowing and if they access gambling sites when they are outside their home, of course before they go home they will delete the site first. they open it so that when they get home and their parents check their cell phones they don't find anything they opened earlier when they were outside the house and the best thing is that we teach them what is right for them to do and also what is wrong if they do that and also we tell them the consequences they will get when they do things that are not natural for them to do.

If we are gamblers, of course we cannot carry out gambling activities in front of our children so that they don't do things like we do before their time, because if they see our gambling habits, of course they will try it and this is very dangerous because they don't really understand gambling and also the risks involved in gambling.

Monitoring is always that close to impossible on which it would really be just that so damn hard nowadays as a parent on trying to see and look up on everything on which our children which they've been dealing with. They are really hat exposed to something like those things which we know that because of technology then there are already things which it is really that hard for you
to monitor them out. Just like on what others above saying that it would really be more better that you should really be making those kind of explainations on whats this and whats that.
It would really be just that normal for a parent to be mindful about their children situation knowing that gambling is never been that good in the first place.

There is time for everything. It is wrong to tell a child certain things. Rather, you have to wait until they are grown then you can share those information with them. A child might not be able to have a firm grasp of the things you will say to them since they are not ripe enough to comprehend the information.

When a child gets to the legal age of gambling, it is the proper time to tell them using case studies the effects of gambling. This is important because gambling is so common in today's world and so, the child should be sensitized early enough before it gets too late.

Again, this is about parents' education for their children and of course they should not be in a rush to provide the information circulating. I think parents want their children not to know too much about gambling and even if they have to know about it, they must be of legal age because otherwise the impact will be very difficult to minimize. The rest has full control over their children and parents can only monitor them so they don't fall into a deeper hole with gambling.

In my country physical gambling is ban and our society does not welcome gamblers. Still people come online and use online casino for gambling. Now the question is this how could that individual come in contact of online gambling? The answer would be his circle of friends or a friend. Does that mean the friend is responsible for his gambling habit or himself. The same goes for children they should know what gambling and betting is, but they should also understand the disadvantage of it. It's not that you can keep a child always at home, they will go out meet friends and one of them might introduce gambling to the child, but since the child is aware of it he/she won't fall for it.

I wouldn't blame friends all of the time. You said that gambling is banned in your country, but online gambling is allowed or do I misunderstand that? Then what about online advertising for gambling, is that banned or allowed? Because I think even if friends are to blame some of time, the amount of advertising you can find on the Internet for online gambling these days is huge. It's everywhere. It is in sports, it is in online ads, it is running up and down 24/7 in almost all places on the Internet. The bonus offers are luring young people with their credit cards into trying out the platforms and there you have the answer. That's such a short way for young people to get in touch with gambling.

That's right, we need to give children a clear understanding of what is happening around us.
And how dangerous are addictions. It is best to do this using examples. Now we live in a time when, thanks to the Internet, it is easy to find videos where young people give interviews and tell what uncontrolled gambling has brought them to.
Such an example shows more clearly than any how difficult it is to get out of such an addiction, and unfortunately how easy it is to get into it.

There is time for everything. It is wrong to tell a child certain things. Rather, you have to wait until they are grown then you can share those information with them. A child might not be able to have a firm grasp of the things you will say to them since they are not ripe enough to comprehend the information.

When a child gets to the legal age of gambling, it is the proper time to tell them using case studies the effects of gambling. This is important because gambling is so common in today's world and so, the child should be sensitized early enough before it gets too late.

I would not dare showing them anything.
Like you said, the era now of internet is where kids could easily access these things. Explaining it to them or showing it at a young age might worsen the case. I'd rather leave them in the dark for now. Don't let them see what we are doing and try to check their phones, tablets, or computers if there is one hint of gambling in it. Delete it as fast as possible because the next time they visit it could end up differently.
Also, don't give them access to anything money related, the best possible way to do this is to make them innocent about money until the time where they reach the right age where they could manage their own money.
It's because once they knew how to handle money, they might try doing something stupid and gambling is one of those. Up until now, I am not letting my kids have their own certain amount of money. What they receive from other people during Christmas is being handled by their mother. Because once they start knowing about how money works, they might come a time that they will start lying and keeping those just so they could satisfy their habits.

It's a two-way street, gambling when they're awake and lying to them about what you're doing, which is not quite a lie though, he's actually playing a game. Or gamble when they're asleep and sacrifice your sleeping time for the sake of gambling. Many would go with the first option, as it's not a difficult task to tell the kid what we are doing, on the screen. Gambling is a game; the only difference is the amount of money we wager to play the game. People gamble in PlayStation games, it's still gambling and makes no changes, from the definition of what we have online. So, distracting the thoughts of the child is a smart move, but doing it moderately helps in stabilizing the curiosity of the child. Their brain is fast and remembers to some extent what we do and feel after playing the game.

A child may ask, dad why do you look so serious when playing the game, or your face looks sad whenever the game is over, why? These question as we may have it, came as a result of observation. If they watch you gamble, they'll master the facial reactions, and it wouldn't match with how they feel when playing a video game. The questions won't end, and we must be ready to keep on answering more query every day. I'd advise for the gambler to take it gradually, and gamble when the kids are not around us, as Dewi Aries said. The hardest aspect of it, is what we'd do, when the child wants to sit with us while playing the game. Kids can be worrisome, but we have nothing to do about it, then oblige to their numerous requests. You see it'll be wrong sharing same screen displaying a casino site, with a child. The child may begin to memorize what he's seeing on screen, and it's not conducive in my own view.

I think it's fine if you lie for the sake of something that leads to goodness because after all that's the best thing to do if indeed you are one of the fathers involved in gambling, and don't let you be careless in taking precautions so that your children's curiosity does not develop, plus it's clear as you said that a child usually has a sharp memory and also has a high enough sense of curiosity that this can make them find out what exactly you are doing and it is possible that they are involved in gambling without you realizing it. After all, as you said, there are still quite a lot of prevention options that we can do, one of which is in terms of dividing time, you can gamble at your children's bedtime or gamble in other places that are essentially far from your child's environment.

Well of course such a situation is also very likely to make a child become very curious about what exactly his father is doing, they will be very curious and then ask you some questions and if you always make the same mistakes in the sense of not paying too much attention to the importance of the prevention aspect then obviously the suspicion of a child will be more developed, so always keep this activity away from the environment and the view of a child if you really want the best for your child.

Those lies could help, but not forever. Sometimes humans forget what they said previously about a certain question. When that same question is repeated other times, weeks later, the recipient of the question may not give an answer that matches his previous answer, if he lied. The truth sticks to the brain, and we don't need to bother about fabricating something to say. They'll be nothing to lie about computerized objects moving in the screen. The child sees the avatars, and characters in the game. S/he may be wondering why daddy is seriously playing such games, that looks like it's meant for kids. Looking at it they know it's a game, why a grown adult is playing such a game.

Actually, the child may not be satisfied with the answer; truth or lies. So, they'll have to asks again some other times. When it doesn't correspond, the child may remind us of our previous answer, the lie didn't match. Creating more confusions. I think they'll should be more explanations to do, when in such a condition, a child being inquisitive of our gambling activity. Drawing an image, in the child's mind, of the quality and importance of the game, without mentioning gambling, that made you to engage in the game every day. Explanations makes confusing things clearer and brighter for a child. Let them see a reason. It will reduce the rate the child repeats his or her questions. While at it try diverging the discussion to other life situations and bringing it back to the main topic. With a good interpersonal skill, the gambler doesn't need to hide and play gambling. Unless the child distracts us from being attentive in the game, changing location will be fine.

I think fathers should pay full attention to this precaution, because if they really think that the future of a child is more important than anything else then I don't think they should forget something that should be done like diverting the answer to a question that a child asks you, but if a father always forgets to do this then I think there is another reason or they don't really care about their child. I don't think we need to go too far in making up things like this, because it is clear that the main point that a father should do is that they must keep gambling activities out of the sight of their children, there is no other reason because this is the best thing to do if they feel that the future of their children is far more important than anything else.

By doing this, it is clear that there will be no follow-up from other questions because a child will never again see your activities that are too serious in looking at the screen because you can really divide gambling time with time for a child. Usually a child will be easily distracted by other things they see, and that means that what you can do is take their attention away from gambling and divert it to other things that can make them feel happy, with this in my opinion it is less likely for them to ask you again about what they saw before, on the other hand you have also said this that the point is that parents must be able to distract a child.

Unless they know how worse a gambling addiction can be or to the point any addiction how would they know whether to avoid or not. In today's time when everyone in the world is connected to the internet it is not possible to keep children away from bad things. Making them aware of what is considered good and what is considered bad will help them in their future. It is not possible to monitor a child 24/7 but making them aware of everything happening around is possible.

That's right, we need to give children a clear understanding of what is happening around us.
And how dangerous are addictions. It is best to do this using examples. Now we live in a time when, thanks to the Internet, it is easy to find videos where young people give interviews and tell what uncontrolled gambling has brought them to.
Such an example shows more clearly than any how difficult it is to get out of such an addiction, and unfortunately how easy it is to get into it.

Providing a good and proper understanding to children is good, but on the other hand, in my opinion, it is better for you to avoid anything related to gambling from the view of children even though for example your goal is good, namely by instructing them that gambling activities are very bad and should not be done by them but on the other hand maybe we know that children have a high level of curiosity and this means that it is not impossible that they will be even more curious about what gambling really is after you give them an explanation of the dangers of gambling.

So the best thing in my opinion is that it is better to avoid everything related to gambling from the view of a child, do not let them know that in this world there are gambling activities. On the other hand I understand that with the development of increasingly sophisticated times this allows children to know the world of gambling accidentally, and one of the factors causing this is the world of the internet, the scenario is that maybe they can find some casino promotions on social media, and this means that you better limit their activities, especially in the digital world such as limiting the use of smartphones or other things that have the potential possibility of your child finding gambling promotions. Another thing is of course what you said is true that to get out of the addiction phase is very difficult and this is also the reason why we must try hard to avoid gambling especially for your children.
