I will still love to know if there could be a strategy in which we can use in helping the younger generations to avoid gambling until they are mature in all aspect so as to curb excessive mismanagement of funds appropriated for very important purpose

There's really no complicated strategy it all comes down to respect, teach a child how he will behave in his younger days and he will not depart from it, if you have a good relationship with your child, your child will have respect for what you are going to say and, you must lead by example young people are looking for a figure that can look up, be a good role model in gambling and your child will follow your example.

Well, anyone who has started earning for themself and little matured knowing between the fun and addiction then can start gambling. Though there is no specific age as everyone becomes matured at different ages and start earning for themself at different ages so will be dependent on them. But after college would be the best, I suppose may be better.

the most important thing in my opinion is that those who are more suitable for gambling are those who already have a steady income or a steady job.
And their gambling capital comes from their jobs and only uses extra money, they gamble just for fun when they have free time, and some of my friends do and they are around 20 to 25 years old on average.
so the right age to bet is 20 years and over and already have your own income without harming anyone else.

Still boils down to the society where the child grows in my opinion. If at a young age, he/she sees people around him like his Dad into gambling, no doubt that he will be influence to do the same at the young age. Family and social environment are a big factor here, at least this is my case. Was involved in gambling at a young age because I see people around me gambling all the time.

Gambling is very addictive and so must be taking care of diligently, kids often fall victim because they cannot control their feelings and they go awkward when they time comes, variably, it's necessary to handle the age bracket to fits in eligibility of gamblers.

In West African country that I come from, age bracket from 18+ are liable to gamble with no ease, any children found in gambling hall are chased away, allowing them to start going into gambling will really cause harm on them and the society at large, the addictive energy in it is very high and so children at the specified age are allowed.

before it leads to addiction we can do ways to prevent it . dont spoil your kids by giving them lots of money .
when i was a kid my parents did this and i worked hard to earn my cash and that made me discourage of betting in gambling in an early age but as i grow older i have different sources to earn an income , i can now afford gambling .
i started gambling when i was 18 years old because this was the legal age in every addictive activity . as a good boy i followed this rule

I wouldn't recommend gambling if you haven't got any stable income regardless of age.

Supported this one and yeah this is a must.

This is the most crucial thing since if you don't have spare money to gamble, then don't.

Because this can push people to do wrong just to have funds to gamble.

Quote

People go homeless because they are bad at managing money regardless of age, even if they have good jobs on their name. If you're just bad at managing finances no matter how old you are AND you think of gambling, just don't IMO.

I totally support the sense of your post , and as a former addicted gambler ? i must say that gambling really brings us nothing but losses.

Well Since i Started gambling at younger age and now as a father ? i will never let my children suffer my stupidity in gambling back in the days.

Yeah it helps me develop some attitude and learn earlier to respect decisions , Yet it's not enough for my children to have the same path.
Maybe i i were to decide ? i will ask government to Let the parents decide when to let their children play so as long as they have no consent to gamble and still living with them? they cannot play without any age specifications .

I am not sure about the strategy, even if it is implemented, all gambling sites say +18 and above, in fact, it is only written, no, especially kyc, most gambling sites, name, gmail, passwords are complete.

Online gambling sites, it's a little difficult to avoid young people today being involved in gambling, the proof is, I see 12 year olds who are involved, it's strange, but that's the truth.

Strategy may not exist, advise directly, maybe, that's a good strategy, but not sure they stop completely, behind us playing.
Maybe, now direct / physical gambling is rare, online is one reason why youth are involved nowadays, the pandemic, is also a bad factor today that affects young people to fall into gambling.

Maybe 5-10 years will come, 7-10 year old kids are already good at betting on gambling.

Depend on what parental decision is and me as parent ? i believe that 21 year of age is the actual allowable to gamble .

With their own responsibilities , and no need for parents consent .

It could be 18 or 21 but I do agree that they need to have a responsibility first and they also have to have their own jobs to make it so that they don't spend the money of their parents. I think that if there is no intervention in parents there also should be no help received from the parents when these people are drowning in debt.

Gambling is reserved for adults, for many years most gambling sites specify the age limit the accept on their gambling sites. Considering the level of exposure and how far information flies. Younger kids mostly those who depend on their parents for survival engage in high risk gambling. Most of them bet with their tuition fee and little stipend given to them by their parents/guidiance, what age should a child reach before allowing such to gamble. Since maturity in different continent is been accessed based on different factors. In some part of the world age bracket is a key determinant of maturity but for some other regions exposure and intelligent quotient plays a key role in maturity state.

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

In situations where the child cannot be convinced to wait till he gets emotionally matured or attend a certain age before gambling what could be the best approach and how could one help such a child manage his/her losses most especially in situations where the child gets so addicted to gambling.

Cases of this nature arise daily in our society. Younger children engage in gambling this days compared to adults and I believe its to late to stop them so what approach do we embibe to help the younger ones mange their finance and prevent them from lossing more than the can afford to loose.

I will still love to know if there could be a strategy in which we can use in helping the younger generations to avoid gambling until they are mature in all aspect so as to curb excessive mismanagement of funds appropriated for very important purpose

No one below the legal age limits should gamble, but this does not mean in automatic that anyone above it should do it, we must remember that just as there is a physical age based on the date you were born there is also something called mental age, there are people that are adults but their mental age is way lower than that and for people that cannot control their impulses it is better that they do not take in gambling activities at all so they can avoid losing all their capital.

Yeah Majority of ages that was accepted in gambling are 18 years old and above but in some country they are even lower.

Actually there is a thread here in gambling section in which it was mentioned that even below 10 years younger is legally allowed .

But for me personally , I wanted to let a people play gamble when they are already responsible and that is at least 25 years and above , at least with that Age gambler may have His own work( hopefully)

I think its better if we introduce them to the market but not on the gambling market well some younger age already know how to gambling and there's nothing wrong with this at the early age they know already how the gambling runs out and they can use this as a skills or assets if they want to earn additional profit but today with the generation z most of them cant handle too much of their emotions they are still unstable in decision making which is too much bad for their part this is the reason we need to guide them how to handle the money properly and control themselves to avoid giving a wrong decision makings.

It isn't that easy to set an age bracket ngl. Why? Some people just learn earlier than others. When you expect adults to have better control over their lives, it turns out that underage kids are actually much better at controlling themselves (ofc, this could also go the opposite way, but THAT'S how they're supposed to act). Not to mention that some kids earn money themselves at quite a young age already, so opening up access to gambling could also be seen as fine/okay in my eyes. Still, I suppose if we take into account the majority (not all) and if we consider how people graduate in college in ages 22-23, and have a consistent job by let's say 25, then that could just be the proper age bracket (instead of 18, if we consider when most people start earning money anyway).

Or just create a system where employed people for more than a year have an id they can use to register in casinos and is immediately removed when they get fired. Though this does create issues of what ifs like financial traders, youtubers, streamers, etc.

The thing is that it is complicated to just set a certain age for people to be able to start gambling. As a matter of fact, it is a very serious problem here in my country that gambling is rampant, not because the gamblers are mostly underage kids but mostly because gamblers, most of them adults, don't have self-control.

Personally, I think the age limit for young people to be allowed to gamble should be increased. I am not in favor that since a child has already reached the age of maturity, he/she will automatically be allowed to gamble. That shouldn't be the case. Whose money will he/she be wasting in casinos?

Gambling age limit should be set around the age when a young person is already employed. I guess it is best not to allow gambling to young people at a certain age range when they're expected to be still in college.

How do we tackle issues where kids gamble with their school fees, little allowance given to them by their and some go to the extent of stealing from their parents to gamble. Gambling been so addictive if not traded with caution might also force this kids into stealing from neighbors since the lack a source of income and still depend on their parents for survival. How do we advice the upcoming generation who engage in gambling quite early in life. How do we educate them on money management along side proper risk management in gambling and life affairs in general.

This PDF shared shows that the most gamblers spend their time are most commonly senior citizens because they had a lot of free time.
So, asking what is the best age bracket for gambling? Wait when your age belongs to senior citizens and have a monthly retirement allowance to spend in gambling, that is a perfect age for you to gamble to avoid boredom.

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.
