Topic: Should mentally unstable people be allowed to gamble? - page 12. (Read 2539 times)

What? No! Mental condition is a serious issue and as well as we don't allow kids to drink alcohol and smoke we shouldn't allow mentally unstable people to gamble. How can they "know how to control it", what are you talking about? Only adults in their right mind should be allowed to gamble, there can't be two opinions about it.

How do you define someone as mentally unstable? Just because someone might be suffering from mental illness doesn't mean they can't decide for themselves. I find your statement a little overexaggerated. You claim that gambling is for mentally sound people when a large percentage, if not the largest, is addicted and blows away their money. We've seen quite a few users here ranting about how they bet everything and lost it. With that being said, you're claiming that a large percentage of gamblers, including those on the forum, are mentally unstable, right? Because that's what you're basically saying.

Thus, you may need to reconsider your definition of mental illnesses and who's unstable or not.

The mentally unstable people can’t make the win in the gambling site,because they are mentally unstable.They can’t able to take the correct decision and how they can do the right betting in the gambling site.Actually the fact is they never win with the unstable mind,they need of medical treatment and care.So the gambling is the game for the people with sound mental condition.The physical appearance may not affect the game,many of my friends who working in the gambling industry had said more stories about the physical appearance of the gamblers.


The gambler with more temptation will not fit for the gambling industry,because fighting with the gambling site after a loss is no use.Instead improve your game and the possibility for the winning will increase in the gambling.Many of my friends made the money only by changing their view of the gambling and improved their skills towards the game.Because the gambling site or offline gambling which was legit will not scam you,it may happen because of your mistake.

Without a doubt, the gaming business covers large Boundaries and yes, it is essential to see gaming as a prevailing need to do things well to have fun and we are clear about some points, only that sometimes a casino can get into trouble with a type of people who are not mentally well, if one of these people restricts themselves, many things would begin to fall on them, it would be seen as discrimination, now currently there are many things that are being done to avoid this type of things, there is much more defense for a casino to say that they let him play so as not to discriminate that they did not let him play because he was Mentally not good or suitable, because in the casino things cannot be done like that, neither in the casino nor anywhere, now things are very dedicated in this type of things, I think you should take great care of these types of things.

A person is known to be mentally weak but for some he/she passes as someone normal, no one is a psychologist so he/she is acting and selling or Paying attention to what a person is like, whether he/she has problems or not, this is something that everyone is already responsible, a person must have someone by their side so that they do not do these types of things , or Irresponsibly , it is like the chaos of addictions , a casino is not responsible for the addictions, the addictions we as players are the ones totally responsible for fall into an Addiction , then this applies to this type of people , many times we can be talking to someone and we can assume that they are a normal person , but if they have something, they don't notice it , because we don't know or are interested in studying some humans , I did study my wife, because I wanted to know Everything about her well , and I gave her many tests and everything was fine, but that's another thing , lol, but basically people who are like that with those types of Problems have to have a degree of responsibility much higher than that of a person who is much more mentally stable.

I don't think they can, nor should they. Casinos don't play the role of the psychologist; they're there to make money, not to advise users against gambling or introduce a cooling-off period. It's not the casino's issue that someone is addicted. On the contrary, they're basically taking advantage of people's weaknesses to profit, that's why the majority loses money, because they can't control themselves. As long as someone is paying and isn't causing issues to the staff or other attendants, they should be left alone to mind their own business. There's no way to prohibit specific people unless they've been banned from the premises; it's unethical and could also be considered racist and discriminating.

First, "casinos cant detect mental health issues at the door"? Imagine casinos offering mental health resources. I mean posters, brochures, and fast digital info points. Integrate it into casino culture, emphasizing support.

Online casinos authenticate identification and funds, but how about a cooling-off period? The technology temporarily blocks or mandates breaks if someone's gaming tendencies indicate problems. We must actively promote healthy gaming behaviors.

Community engagement is last. Online and offline casinos could benefit from a mental health-aware and friendly community. Perhaps forums, chat rooms, or on-site assistance. Building a caring community promotes a healthier, more fun gambling experience.

That's also my point. If you are already being tagged with behavioral issues, then at that time you will not be allowed to enter the premises. It gives the owner and all the people who are involved with the security not to allow you to prevent any issue from happening again. It's the right that the government or the licensure body provides to the casino to avoid any potential risk for the business.

But, on that side note, if there's no problem or anything that might harm the place, there should be no restrictions that should be made. The person has the money and has that ability to quit after playing without doing anything bad.

If you do have some history that been made out on a certain venue or place then expect that you would really be getting banned but since we do know that there are tons of places on which you can gamble on then it wont really be  that an issue. It would be that normal that they will really be that allowing for those people who dont show any behavior fault on the time that they would be entering  the premises but when things turns out to be obvious or it did really happen then this is where you would really be pointed out on having some behavior problems on which you might be able to get
in into that place for now but in next time there's no way that you could really be able to enter the premises on which it would really be just that normal on having that way.

Exactly, if the person appears as normal and manage to enter the casino without any trace of mental issue, there's no way the security will manage to prevent them to go inside, the moment that they show their mental problem is the only time casino owner or the security can take action in preventing them to go inside, but without any sign they are still allow to play and enjoy.

And like what you mentioned, online casino have that edge, since the only way that you can play is to have the money and have that information to confirm your identity, after that you can fully utilize the services of the house.

That makes these children stronger than their parents because they can find their own way to survive the harsh treatment of their parents towards them. In fact, some children can do many things that should make their parents proud, but their parents cannot see it, although some parents end up regretting their actions because they were rude to their children. It is children like these who should be imitated by their gambling parents because their children can be more mature than their parents. That is why if parents want to gamble, they must be able to distance themselves from their children so that their children do not see their parents gambling.

And how are these people going to be identified in a physical casino before their entry? It doesn't make too much sense. However, I understand your point; someone throwing tantrums and breaking down in the middle of a game isn't the best image for the casino and the other attendants.

Online casinos have the advantage (and disadvantage in some cases) of enabling everyone to gamble at any time, from anywhere in the world. I don't see a reason to prohibit users who are suffering from mental illnesses, as long as they're paying and behaving fine.

Many children learn from the suffering of their parents' gambling addiction and try to become established themselves. There are also many small boys and girls who become addicted to gambling after seeing their parents gambling. Here every parent must participate in gambling to keep their son or daughter safe. A parent should not gamble in front of their children because young children can get addicted to their parents' gambling.

As long the guy in your story is well coordinated in rapporting with others and within the gambling axis aside his unkept dressing code I think he is as good as the other persons. My emotions goes to him that he should realize what he is doing so he doesn't empty his pocket for the sake of gambling and so also, I hope he also utilizes his winning funds as much better to his essential needs because I have come across of mental changed persons who doesn't see values in most valuables around them instead they take them as trash and let it be exposed to whom knows the values.

The only aspect a mental disabled persons should be prohibited is at when the metal disable persons does not acknowledge the potnetials of what the gambling board is and his inabilities to understand the reasons for gambling.
Aside that, I would urge the gambling attendants to help the mental disabled persons moderate and guides them from not gambling uncontrolably because it is assumed they don't know what they are doing at the moments of spending all they have (funds) in gambling untill they are in need to eat finances could resolve for them.

These children have seen how their parents often mistreat them, and they persist with what their parents do. It is true that children can also become gamblers because they often see their parents gambling, but if their children are raised well by their families, they will not be influenced by anything their parents do that is related to gambling. They can grow well and even change the situation and make their parents realize what they did was wrong. In the end, his parents realized that they had made a fatal mistake and regretted it while trying to cure his gambling addiction. It would be a happy ending for their family.

I can't go with your words because many gambling addicts have children who grow up to be good children. I have seen children of many gambling addicts who have become human beings through education and have brought their own lives and families into a bright light. However, there are cases in two-one gambling addicted families that the children have become addicted to gambling by following their parents' gambling addiction.

There are few questions that will stands to answer this topic .

1st - He has money? if yes then why hinder them or bother them from betting?

2nd - Do they behave like Normal? if yes then why we care more? they have life and rights to do what they need .

3rd - Is there rules in casino that they are prohibiting mentally unstable people to bet?  gambling is a business in which they will accept all bettors as long as this bringing them Money .

That shouldn't definitely cause him to be ambitious here. the effective way is to make him do something other than gambling. If he is married, it is very dangerous for his family. However, gambling, apart from games, can sometimes be a place of outlet for people who feel that their mentality has been damaged. Even though I can't completely prohibit it, it's still better not to do it for those whose mental condition is very bad. This affects his psychology and can even get worse.

Well, it is difficult to accept things like this, it is natural that mentally unstable people should not even go near a casino, because it is obvious that things can be very dangerous, in this order of ideas we must see gambling as one of the options that It is very favorable that it be done in other ways, for example a person who is an adult must know well his condition, so gambling, casinos, sports betting, there are activities that they cannot do, as well as taking care of children, Ancions are things that should not be allowed, worse as we are in a society where now freedoms are very different from what they were before because there are many things that go overlooked, but in the specific case of a casino a person like that, what can cause It is because there are many crises, and that is what is dangerous, because it is impossible to say what can happen or how they can do to have a better vision of this in the casinos.

A mentally unstable person does not bring anything good, they will always bring problems to everything, the more they focus on things that they should not handle, it is risky for anyone, first of all for the person who is like that because their control will not be 100%, the first thing is to know. What will become evident is that you can suffer the money to go away very quickly, and it can also happen that things when you try to be with someone accompanied, you will notice that anxiety can be one of the things that attack you, then this is not good, It is not viable and it is not safe, so things are difficult to turn out well, a person like that has to live with many rules, and if, in case he plays in a casino, he must allocate a balance willing to lose and that it be little, Because we don't know what actions you should have when betting because if you bet on in-all the same, all your money could go and that's not the idea, things must be well controlled, well played and all the pros and cons must be observed.

Are you like living in a dream world? Have you heard of the saying "Don't judge a book by it's cover"? Because as much as you want to believe that someone is good inside, no one's going to give you the time of the day if you're not impressive at first glance and that's the reality plus the time it takes to know a person fully is going to take a long time so they do cut corners and just do what they think is for the best. You're also contradictory with your statement, you're saying not to judge someone then agree that the officer will have to do what it takes to keep the others comfortable.

That's not really a question you have to ask because the only right answer to that is that no, they're not allowed to gamble because they're going to be danger to themselves and to the people around them, we all know how frustrating gambling is and imagine if you're in the shoes of that mentally unstable person, you're probably going to think that they'll take their losses even harder which will definitely happen because they're not good at handling their emotions.
