There's a lot of traps for an individual if they start at the wrong age, teenage years are not the right time to start gambling, their minds are unstable and they do not have a moral obligation yet, easy money is attached to gambling and this is a wrong way to teach an individual to make money, the right age for me is 22, at this age, a person already finished his study and had a job and there's already some degree of maturity.

Because of social media and the age we are in currently, there is barely anything reserved for a particular age bracket. The search and excitement for quick money has driven and caused some under the legal age of gambling to click and say that they are above 18.
 The major reason why gambling is not adviced for people not only less than 18 but also those who cannot control themselves is that it is a dangerous addiction and can lead to the loss of fortune if left uncontrolled.


They are under 18 years to easily find anything from the internet as we know that the internet helps us search for what we want. So that makes the younger people click the advertisement that they met from the website or social media. Most of them don't know if that is a gambling game or other things that they should not open at their age.

Sometimes, people under 18 years will hard control themselves, especially if they found something of interest, so they will continue to do it for some time. If they really can't control when to stop, that can make them addicted in the long term, which means, if they addicted to gambling, that can make their lives not better than their friends.

Young minds are so aggressive when it comes gambling decision which is not really good. With the age of 30 and above will likely have the responsibility, a job, and already have an advance decision making which is suitable for this field. But, this doesn't mean that below 30 is not welcome, yes they are as long as they can provide their need and by asking money from their parents or the worse they commit illegalities just to funds their needs.
That also applies to those above 30 though. Age is a factor, but it isn't the entirety that one should use when judging whether a person is "aggressive" or not in gambling. Besides, being aggressive doesn't necessarily mean that one is unable to manage his/her funds properly. Additionally, I'd also consider people who ask for money from their parents to be excluded from those that are allowed to gamble. After all, one only realizes the value of something when they themselves earned it. Someone who has a job, no matter the age I suppose should be good enough to gamble.

Each country that legalizes gambling has different rules regarding the age limit allowed to play gambling. The average age will not be far from
the age of 17-21 years, because that age group is suitable for playing gambling. Based on the results of the analysis I did to be able to start
playing gambling is the age of 21 years and over, because most people after the age of 21 years have started to be able to think in an adult
manner and be able to control their emotions is also much better. So I strongly advise against gambling before the age of 21.

As much as possible gambling should be avoided because once you learned it and thought that you could make money from it then this will be the start of your gambling addiction. I first learned bitcoin gambling when I was 17 and with my 0.002btc that time I managed to make it 0.08btc in just one night. With greediness and thinking that my win streak will continue that night I continued until I hit that losing bet, I tried to recover it but I ended up with 0 balance. I could not slept for a day or two that time and I can't still forget it until now.

The best age range is probably somewhere within the 20s, I don't mind other countries having lower age restriction because I think it depends on how well the younger gamblers are guided by their parents to avoid addictions from developing in the first place. Giving them reminders won't always work but it's better than nothing since there's not much we can do about the age restriction between different countries. Also like the others have mentioned there are games that lets you experience the way gambling works through lootbox, plinko to name a few.
Yes, 20 years old is very effective in gambling and can easily understand any gambling especially poker gambling which can test patience and skill in playing and still need to be taught how to play correctly by parents.
In fact, the age limit is actually not a problem because many teenagers play gambling without the knowledge of their parents and they play gambling which is still related to games such as plinko and so on.

There's no reason for a child to understand gambling in a very young age unless he is interested and out of curiosity you let him try it and turns out he is a genius. Then as a parent, you'll decide whether to let him play or not but if we're going to talk about the law, I guess it's not right to let a child gamble even he is your son.

My number 1 reason for that is because is his safety as well as your whole family, because you know, somebody might envy him or get annoyed to him for being good and do something bad to him or to your family. Second is that something might escalate later on when he is playing gambling or he could steal your money since you're not giving him any for gambling, etc...

Honestly, I just don't want to see a kid gamble. When we describe it as a child or kid, then we're thinking of the age bracket as really young and they shouldn't be gambling with their parents money. Even with parents consent, that's not good type of parenting.

Although on my teenage days, I started to gamble so if there's a metric of age, I would say that they should be at the right age. Maybe after college and they already have their job and own money to gamble with, they're classified as the young adults.

i guess, i can agree with that. young adults at least earning money for themselves. so even if they gamble, they already know the hardships that they went thru just to earn that money. they know the value of money because they work for it. and i think, for these young adults working,  gambling will not be their first choice to spend their money.

for those who want to check the age restrictions of gambling in some countries,  Rengga Jati created a thread for this -

Age restriction in gambling
Yes, that's part of being responsible with their own finances. It's their money and whether they spend it for gambling as long as they have earned that and never asked from anyone or their parents, they're at the right time gambling.

The bracketing of age for gambling really differs from the society where you've grown and I think that's how I describe the society where I lived.

If one was to advice a child who wishes to gamble, what would be the criteria to permit the child to engage in gambling considering the risk involved and how matured the child might be. Would it be based on the emotional state of the child or would age play a determining factor. Considering that different continent would address this matter differently. If we want to give a general approach in tackling a case as this what would be the criteria or the bases for allowing a child gamble



Maturity in gambling depends on your emotional state, a person who is still young can start to gamble and understand the risk and employ control not to become a compulsive gambler, and an old guy can gamble the first time and lose everything because his emotion is not stable, it's not the age actually but his emotional maturity on how to handle things.
Agree with this.

All talks or depend with maturity when it comes to gambling awareness when it comes to risk and possible problems that you would be faced off.There's no certain age into that
because people could differently able to achieve those awareness on particular time.

Depends on the approach you do have in gambling.Perfect time isnt needed but only the common sense on what you are doing.
Play for fun and dont chase up on getting rich because this is the primary mistake on where people do commits.

With all due respect you have a bad approach to the solution and it is based on the wrong information you have in the problem statement.

Much of what you say is unrelated, it is only related to the perception of your experience or of believing that it is so. A great majority of contemporary adults grew up with board games as their main family distraction and today most have very good experiences and memories, there are even people who reach +18 and forget about these games because they have learned through the years With upbringing that there are goals to be met based on work and effort, life goals are learned as a family teaching, mainly from our parents, even regardless of what they dedicate themselves to or what problems they have.

I've started gambling ever since I was 11. Carnival games where you're given the promise of a new toy or more money for your penny, I believe this is what kickstarts gambling in our early ages. I've tried hard gambling when I was already 21, which allowed me to make sound decisions in my gambling path. Personally I would suggest an older age bracket, probably around 30-40 as it is at least guaranteed that you have money to burn, unlike on your teen years where you literally would need to gamble with and for your allowance.

I don't think that it is all about age? Maybe if it is in age then probably the age that suits was 18 and above because these ages are the on who is adult already in which they can gambling their own money. Another thing is that perfect for gambling are those people who has a good job or have a job so that they can support their financial needs in order to gamble. It's very hard to gamble if you don't have an source of income like a decent job because at the end of the day the money you are betting or playing must be your own money.

The age bracket for gambling has been set at 18years of age. It might vary across nations but, this is the one set for my country and it follows a precise calculation form which, one is presumed to be an adult, capable of independent existence and gainful thoughts that would be beneficial to the individual's life and the society.
Though, I don't really think there should be an age bracket for gambling. I agree that gambling shouldn't be a thing for kids quite alright but, I also think it would be very wrong should most adults gamble. Some adults are not capable of measuring when its just enough and when to halt in gambling so, it goes beyond age brackets.

Legal games? I think it should be 18 years old and above.

Illegal? Nah, obviously, they are not going to follow any rules so they will allow anyone that is willing to play and gamble with real money on their bookies. And that's why many become addicted and by age mid 20's we hear a lot of these young kids who's lives are destroyed because they started early with their gambling vices.

In online casino? Yes it's possible for minors to play but on Physical casino, They will be screen at the entrance and in case a minor player got enter in casino. He will not able to withdraw it because they will ask valid ID in able to cash it out.

I believe there is no perfect age to play gambling (considering legal age only). As long as a person has a sufficient extra money that he can spend on gambling, that is the best time gamble.
Most actual casinos will have protections on the outside that prevent too young members from joining the casino, they are not old enough to be liable for losses but gambling comes to us in many different ways, young people can as you say, participate in gambling online as long as they have enough money, everything is private with the guarantee of online casino. Perhaps we need to educate children more about gambling, at least restrict them from this game until they have a stable income and job, probably the most perfect is that they are over 25 years old, their thinking will be more mature and controlled

in fact, games (mobile/pc/console) which has microtransactions already introduced kids to indirect gambling.
these kids need to spend their points to have a chance to get random in-game items.
some players who don't have enough points will buy points with real money via google play or the app store.
sometimes, this activity is more interesting than the gameplay itself.
the gap is so tight, between gambling and this kind of activity.
