Every country do have rules regarding to gambling, what age a citizen is allow legally to gamble. But to me, Gambling involved so many risk, and should be played only by people who are mature enough to manage risk.

I dont support under age gambling, because when a child of about 12 years start gambling, what future is that child creating for him/her self.Parent should be extra careful about their children, lecture them the side effects of gambling and the spirit to say no to it.

Gambling is highly addictive, even for a adult. Age is just a factor, the important is a person knows the risk of gambling and can afford the risk, if a person can do this, then i think even his/her age under legal gambling age, he/she can gambling.

Not many adult people know the risk of gambling and even if they know that they are still playing gambling and risk their money. But if we talk about the ages, adults and young people can become addicted if they can not control themselves because gambling can tempt them to play the games. Without control, it will be difficult to stop gambling, but they will enjoy playing various gambling games.

In fact poverty forces you to work at a young age the rich father told the story of how the poor father became rich by working hard as a teenager. If you have a good work experience many people make money as teenagers but in order to become suitable for gambling you have to learn the gambling sites well adolescents who are older have more knowledge about the market. Playing at the right age makes both investing and gambling profitable As a teenager you can start with a very small scale business idea and later turn it into a full fledged big business.

I'd still prefer to the age bracket where a person can fully understand the responsibility of gambling. Yes playing gambling has a responsibility, a responsibility for yourself to have a limitation of what and how much you can only afford to lose and to spend. Here in our country I can personally witnessed gamblers who gamble in their young age. I just felt that these young people shouldn't be involved seriously in gambling, but what else can we do to prevent them from gambling when they have already been involved for a long time.

Robert Kiyosaki the author of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" says his rich friend traded $200,000 on stock markets as a teen or younger age.

It may not be so much about chronological age as it is about being raised to be stable with money, investments or gambling.

Many have a poor time controlling their spending and saving habits. Its not a trait reserved for an exclusive age or demographic. Rather something people of all ages struggle with.

Now that I find is very insulting for the poor man. He has $200,000 when he was a teenager. Who the hell in the world has 200k dollars when he was a teen? I know many people who only have 2 dollars in their name when they were teens. So I don't believe that these people who invest have issues with their spending and saving, they are barely trying to survive in a world the is being customized for rich people. Prices are high, services are high, and poor people have no choice but to spend all their money to survive. That is why I teach my son every single skill and trick about money making at an early age. Even poor men needs to learn to do small business.

I am sure that every country has standardization about the age restrictions for gambling. And they may be different from each other. And even the country allows kids for gambling, it will also depend on how parents can control and manage their kids to be involved in gambling or not, at what age exactly.
I ever wrote about Age restriction in gambling here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/age-restriction-in-gambling-5230360

However, in my opinion, there must be several things to be considered when a kid going to play gambling. because gambling is full of risks, emotions, and also mental. If someone (at whatever age) is not ready for the risks, emotions, and also mentally to play gambling, it is better not to play because it may give more negative impacts on them. They may not be ready with the loss and risks, only play gambling based on emotions or hype, and also will do everything to still play gambling always. This may be harmful

..

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...

You just made me remember how I did actually bet when I was a child. It was with collectible cards of La Liga, we put these on a stack, and the ones that went there were negotiated carefully by us, absolute experts of 9 year of age at most. The game was very simple, you stacked the cards and you had to hit the stack with your hand and try to make the cards turn upside down. You got those cards that you managed to turn.

I guess there is not such a thing as an age bracket after all.

I agree that the consequences will be fatal to let under age children play gambling, because they have unstable emotions and are very easily
addicted. There is not only gambling can be addictive, children under age will be addicted to mobile phone games too if not restricted.
Therefore I support parents, which forbids their children to recognize gambling when they are under age. That way can save the child's future,
therefore, parents must be disciplined towards their children.

children under the age who played gambling will definitely be unproductive for their studies. here in my country, we and the local government are very concerned about a large number of young gamblers, although access to legal casinos is not possible they make illegal gambling with thugs. directions from parents are needed by children who are still under the age of 17+

Your concern for children who start accessing illegal gambling is reasonable, because if we let it happen it could ruin the child's future. As we all
know children who are still under the age of 17 have immature minds, so it's very easy to get addicted to gambling. Therefore in all countries
there are restrictions regarding when it is allowed to play gambling, the problem is getting more complex after the digital era, as now many online
gambling have sprung up and finally can be accessed by children. In this case, it is hoped that even tighter parental supervision is expected.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with parents limiting children's access to internet use too.

I disagree.

The mature age is the right age for someone to engage in gambling to know his responsibility and risk, because if a kid or a teenage would gamble, he'll be just to carefree to gamble all of the money he has and the money or his parents that he could steal if he doesn't have any money left on his pocket, worst case scenario is that he would steal money on other people, that's the disadvantage of kids when introduce in gambling in an early age.

The effect on adult could be minimal or not, but in a child? it will be always worst.

Minimal on adults? I doubt that. Adults or a teenager or a kid, no matter the age, as long as someone doesn't know how to properly manage their finance shouldn't be allowed to bet. Hence why my earlier opinions were about how the age was minimal. It's almost common sense that kids wouldn't really be allowed, since they're brains are still underdeveloped and the concept of finance management isn't something they themselves would know, but I suppose it isn't impossible for that to happen, just that in the end, they wouldn't use it to gamble since the circumstances for them to actually understand it should already reveal that they have problems with finance.

The sad thing is that their parents are perpetuating their own mistakes on their children, even if it is a bit hypocrite they should tell their kids to do as they say and not as they do, they should try to get them out of gambling but those parents that are addicted to gambling probably do not care anymore about what the kid does or does not do, and in some cases they could even encourage that behaviour as the kids end up bringing money with them and more than anything that is what those that are addicted to gambling want.

Some case here in our country that parents who gamble was open to let their children watch them while they were playing. My moth
er was a card player too, she used to play cards everynoon time as a way to spend her time and I am here watching her playing, analyzing what the rules of the game was and how to play the cards. At early age of mine as I could remember I was 10-11 years old I already knew how to play cards, but what the good thing was my mother didn't really encourage me to reall engaged myself in gambling. Even though she was a card player she've been able to control herself and stop gambling, but what she didn't know that I have already learned how to gamble and now I am not really a gambler but some sort of enjoying gambling.

In most countries, gambling is part of their culture. I also grew up in a family of gamblers and my grand mother also has a small casino where she and her friend play cards all day there are at least 5 tables where people could play and most players were my neighbors and cousins. My grand mother thought me well to gamble if I am earning my own money to play with so I know how hard to earn through my own effort and how easy to lose money in gambling. They never encourage me to gamble but they are open minded to let me play whenever I want as long as I play responsobly. I am earning my own money now but gambling had never been part of my daily life and gladly I am not addicted to it. So, I guess gambling addiction can be avoided at early age with proper parental guidance and disclipine.

Gambling is addictive, and from that reason alone one shouldn't be letting their kids gamble just because they said so. You won't give crack or meth to your kids just because they wanted to do it do you? Allow them to gamble when they are at of legal age and is able to make their own money. That would be the best time to teach them how to spend and save money as well which would help take them a very long way.

If your kid is getting money then you cannot monitor what he is getting, be it meth or crack if your kid gets a steady flow of money even as personal funds from you i bet no parent can monitor what he is going to do with it. And that can be said about his online activities as well, if someone wants to gamble he wont be saying his parents that he wanted to gamble he might tell another story to get the money from his parents Tongue

It lies on the parents, who should raise the children in the right direction by pointing out to these younger generations the many risks attach to gambling and pointing to them the right age and the right thinking to gamble, you cannot stop them from gambling they will eventually gamble later or sooner in their life, but once they are disciplined and they know the risk, they will be ok.

The generation today is more of the risk-taker but don't look at how much risk that they should bear. The parents have an important role to guide their children and if a teenager or a kid gets into gambling at a young age.
There's only one idea that we will be having in our minds and that is because their parents didn't guide them well.

That must be a good example of good parenting. When you are under age (hope in your country also 18 years is a legal age to gamble), that must be a wise decision not to allow you to get into gambling. Because, if you found good profits from gambling then you may plan to live your life out of gambling only but there cannot be any assurance your gambling will support you to live out of it. So prohibiting you when you were under age from gambling, must be a very good decision a parent could do IMO.

Parenting would really be having a great role from time to time when it comes on how would they gonna handle out their children in terms of awareness on particular things in life.

Its always been part of our responsibility to look after them and avoid them on things which would really give out the possibility for some unfortunate situations in life that might happen.

Its not right to let those young minds to get involved with gambling because same as you said that theyre not mature enough on being aware on what theyre dealing with.
Without proper guidance and reminders then they might really be turn out to be an addicted one on a very young age.

That's right and everything you mention has to be done in full control to supervise the children's growth, and it's not always that you have control around the clock to keep an eye on them.
And it is undeniable that anything can happen because of association, most of them can find out and get involved in gambling from association without the knowledge of their parents.
Just like me, when I first got involved, I got to know traditional and online gambling and it was all because of associations.

Gambling isn't unknown to you since your childhood and still you didn't become an addicted player because of this. As you can see children don't become addicted individuals futurely purely because they were familiarized with gambling. When the addiction comes later there are extra factors which aren't considered.
Children are curious and it's normal they want to learn the game rules and to play a little bit. I think that is normal and healthy, since there is adult guidance and the games don't involve real bets, instead only matches for leisure and educative purposes. It actually will help children to improve their self control skills for their future.
