for Sports betting - You indirectly teach your kids to gamble when you leave open your online betting slips, and drop carelessly within the reach of the underaged your offline slip if you didn't bet online. Kids are very inquisitive and take cue from their parents and guardians easily.

You indirectly teach the underaged to gamble when you speak freely and excitedly about how you their parent or guardian placed some bets, visited a casino to have some fun and so on. (be careful what you say around the underaged, they learn quickly especially from someone they look up to.

Regardless of these, those kids will still eventually learn to gamble. Even in a family where no gambler on board, there are still lots of ways why those kids will be exposed to gambling in the future.

Actually, we should not make this a big deal and just trust our kids not to be truly addicted. There are kids or young ones who are exposed to their friends that gamble too much but they are not affected and following the same. If really concerned, have a good talk with our kids, like during lunch, dinner, etc., and educate them about gambling especially the risks. We can also share our worst experiences for them to picture out the possible scenarios.

Parents? They are responsible but most kids are learning gambling from the internet not from their parents so the growth of technology has to be blamed if we want to blame something. But as a parent it is important to talk about money to our kids and importance of managing it then these teens will know how much to spend because its not going to be their money on most cases.

Well that is right --parents will not teach their kids how to gamble, that is just because kids are very aggressive and curious about gambling so they are looking for ways how to learn it and perhaps they will become under influence with someone else around them. These days people are prone to the internet many of them have their own internet at home so that is possible that through the internet source some kids learn how to gamble. We have a lot of streamers out there that are where they can learn. So that parents should always be responsible for what their kids do and not involve in that early stage of gambling.

Kids are naturally curious on things which gambling wont really be an exemption thats why as a parent then you should really be responsible on guiding your child as best as possible.
No parent would really be teaching off their kids on things which could really put them on harm but not all parents would really be like that though yet there are some who doesnt really care
and this would really reflect out on what kind of parent you are but there are situations which cant really be avoided that your children would really be exposed
on bad things which you couldnt able to handle or been aware off.

My father was a big gambler and was quite good at it. I don’t know how much sports gambling he did, if any, but I know he loved cards and made a visit to Vegas at least once a year. He taught me how to play gambling type games but never taught me about the gambling aspect of it. My father preached having good strong morals and being a good kid. As with anything else (smoking / drinking etc) he simply said you can do so when you’re of age. I think that was a pretty good way to approach it.

There is the case of increasing number of underaged gamblers, will you still teach your little kids to gamble?

The answer will be "no" for most users, but truth is that in reality, most parents who gamble teach their kids indirectly to gamble without knowing, how?

You also contribute to the increasing cases of gambling when you hide answers about gambling from the underaged when asked. If your kids or any underaged around you becomes too curious about gambling, educate them and let them know the perils of underaged gambling and why it is for adults, answer their questions and clear their doubts, so they don't go find out about gambling themselves.

kindly bring to our notice other ways user's have unknowingly contributed to the increasing number of underaged gambling, so we can take corrections and make amends where necessary.

I will definitely tell my children about gambling. They should be aware of this and not make mistakes.

I will tell them about the Russian writer Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky. He wrote wonderful psychological novels. Publishers paid him handsomely for his work. However, he could not use the received royalties. He lived in poverty. He had huge debts. Creditors threatened him with death.

Unfortunately, Fyodor Mikhailovich suffered from gambling addiction...

He lost all the money he earned at roulette.

About this he wrote a wonderful novel "The Gambler".

That is a nice strategy, by teaching them by way of historical examples kids can more easily learn the pitfalls they need to avoid once they grow and they decide to gamble on their own, after all it is known that people do not really respond really well to pure data and statistics and instead learn a lot more when they hear specific stories about the events that happened to a person on particular, so this seems like the optimal strategy to teach them about some of the dangers of gambling addiction.

The world can't do without gamble, it is not what you can keep away from children. Children get familiar with gamble as they become to take sport as a hobby. That is why majority of people who play gamble are sport lovers. Gamble may even start from the home when the child starts to predict which team can be winner. Gambling on it own is a game.

I do watch soccer matches with my kids but I never let them know that they can place a bet with it, well when they grow up, they might get to understand how to gamble on their own, but it's a very bad idea to start teaching or exposing them to gambling at this tender age, doing so will amount to absolute distractions to their academic life, I also believe that when they grow up and got acquainted with gambling some may dislike it while others might start gambling

Sooner or later they'll know about it, and it will be their choice ultimately to gamble or not. I myself have been exposed to gambling at a young age, but I never grew up gambling, only now that I'm looking for something to do every weekends. Also, never have I forced myself to debt just to gamble, and so I'd say my gambling career is somewhat 'controllable' and on the milder side albeit being with problematic gamblers even when I'm just a kid.

You cannot control your kids forever, and they'll know all the bad habits sooner or later. It is up to you to guide them and let them know about the dangers of gambling at a very early stage. Not that you'll teach them how to gamble, but to just let them see the effects of it and let them decide if it's for them or not.

I Agree with teaching kids the risk and value of gambling and not the profits in other to reduce their addiction to it because of the money, kids play computer games and see it as fun to make some exciting moves in the games which sometimes are all gambling because the are computer games that reward it, players, with real money in form of coins and tokens that can be exchanged. So the best thing is to teach the value rather than keeping gambling away from kids.

That is correct!
One solution for that is to put a subject in the school curriculum that specialises about individual budgeting like in the household budgeting and savings.
Kids will inevitably going to learn about gambling whenever they want because of the internet. So, equipping them with knowledge for them to be aware of the result If one becomes a gambling addict.

Education will guide them well, in the manner that budgeting or allocating fund for leisure and fund for important things should be separated, if our kids knows the value of money, even they learn how to gamble the chance of getting addicted is slim, we can't stop the spread of this gambling activities but we can help to lessen the chance that our kids will be involved in it the wrong way.

We should be alarmed and be responsible enough for proper guidance for our kids.

They will be ready in case they choose the path of playing or gambling, having the right mindset that they've gained from proper education
Will help them up.. Wink

I don't agree with teaching gamble to kids/child because it can be an harmful vice wi/in a lot of bad issues.
Plus gambling is not for all. I am playing just few events/games or players/teams because I have find stressful at least for me and my heart Roll Eyes

playing too much .

With any choice you made you are gambling. But you don't need to know "how to gamble" ... you need to know how it works life.
Likewise you need to know basic statistics and basic knowledge of probability. If you look everything with that perspective ... Life itself is made of gambling events.

We dont want our kids to learn how to gamble or be expose in gambling, but most kids are already using gadgets and free to access the internet. There are times that we cant control what they do specially if the parents are busy on other things. The parents are the one responsible to guide and limit their kids on the do's and donts when using their gadgets.

If you're a gambler then be careful not to expose what you do to your kids, because kids nowadays are smart and can easily comprehend and absorb what they see.

Until now I still agree with what you said because I also still feel when teaching gambling to children will only have more negative impacts than positive.
but we can't help this because more and more children are given the freedom, especially in handling technology such as gadgets and PCs, the more they know about this and we are not able to filter it out enough.
I feel like telling it's okay but not telling it to forbid. let the child choose especially when he is an adult

What is the point of teaching your child to gambling (even if it is implied that this is done with good intentions)? I have not heard that children are very interested in gambling, usually they have other interests. I remember that I began to be interested in this topic already in high school, but by that moment I no longer considered myself a child. Modern children are faced with gambling very early (loot boxes in games and other things that depend on probability), but they learn from their own experience and learn by themselves. I don't think any additional lessons are needed here.

Our education system is yet to teach about how money works for the students so it may take another century for the changes to happen so there is no solution to this until parents learn about money and how the addiction is there in our day to day life and what are the ways to overcome then only they can teach all these things to their kids.

if I personally would never teach my child to gamble, because there are so many losses that will be faced by our child in the future, and his education will definitely be disrupted, so I focus more on educating my child, and will send him to China Because if the child is not equipped with knowledge, it is certain that the child's future will be bleak, if he already has a lot of knowledge he will easily find income and he can distinguish which business is good for him to live and which is not good.

Do you yourself play gambling? If you think that gambling is bad and you can lose your money, then you should first quit gambling so that your money in not lost and you have enough money to support your children. It's hard to stop our kids from doing gambling but it's easy for us to first stop doing it ourselves. I think everyone here is a gambler and no one will ever quit gambling.

Maybe we can forbid but we must explain why it can be a danger to them, especially if they are still kids. We can give an example for addicted people in gambling and what happens to them so they can see that gambling can ruin their lives. With the right explanation that they can understand, I am sure they will not be curious and search for more about gambling instead will try to avoid it and tell their friends why they should not be involved in gambling. We can not give them strict rules to avoid gambling them because they will disobey it and try to figure it out by themselves and I am afraid that can make them go in the wrong direction.

That's the right way to do than letting them discover gambling for themselves, they can easily learn it in the internet, we all know kids nowadays are quite reckless if they are influenced in the wrong way, so it's better that parents are the ones to tell them the disadvantages and the risk of being a gambling addict, only responsible parents can mold responsible children by doing the right approach.

Agree , as a parent well my kid is still young , i know we cant control their life all the time what the best thing we could do is talked to them the disadvantages on it but we really expect that they will got curious about it and still pursuing it which we cant really control but after that we should guide them always they will learn from their mistakes but that mistakes happened and you tell them about it starting on that day they will listen to you and try to avoid it or like play with it but with your guidance. I am not really stopping my kid in gambling as long as she wants it but with moderation only

...

As we have said above, some parents draw children's attention to gambling without even thinking about it. For example, a simple coin toss, which seems quite harmless, can be deposited in the unconscious memory of a child, which may later affect the addiction to gambling.

When my child asks about gambling games that he downloads to his phone, I try to explain to him that such games are trying to take his money. It seems to me that any sensible parent would try to limit their child from gambling, even if it is free.

Well, everything starts from an early age! You presented a good example, and I believe it's like that, it can look harmless at the moment but later can have consequences!

I don't know how old is your kid, but I will try to remember how you are doing it, I like it... kids will pay more attention if you explain to them that some game can take their money for snacks and toys! My kids are little, the older one is only 3 years old and I guess I have a few more years before they jump me with questions about gambling!

Harmless for them knowing that they cannot feel the worse situation at the moment and they can feel the impact on what they are doing upon growing up that's why we need to pay attention to our youngster since if they will be unguided to go on this area then provably they will be in bad situation which can put them in danger. But if they are will guided and been educated then maybe the risk is low.

This is the reason why must need to have guidance by the parents because of course there's a curiosity that will hit on the children like looks it's just a play to them so they will urge to learn more on it, but most of the time children get bored and find another thing they can do or to play. Still its better to support and guide them to make an englightenment which is the right and wrong things as earliy as possible.

You are right parents are not to be blame, it will be very difficult for parents to start giving their child lesson how to gamble , not that it is bad. 80% of people who gamble learn it from outside.
