Topic: [What IF] Part 7 - page 3. (Read 533 times)
My kid is a minor, I would not allow him to gamble, but nowadays its hard to control our kids since they can access in the internet anytime and they might hide what they are doing. As for me, I will always be against on minors that are gambling because they are weak in controlling their emotion and its hard if they get addicted, it might destroy their future.
I was so busy for our upcoming competition for Robotics at school that's why I wasn't able to come up with a crazy idea yesterday, and actually even now I wasn't so sure about a thing so here's a little bit easy for all of you.
What if you have a kid on the house and you're currently making bets online and you accidentally have a phone call or what so ever thing you might do on that time and suddenly the kid mistook it for some fancy game and make bets on his/her own, would you be upset and get angry to the kid? Or would you rather trust a child's play on this scenario?
Due to our late discussion, thread will be open until Saturday.

Interesting question.
Well, I wouldn’t be angry if it's a probability based gambling. I would be alittle pissed (with good self-control Ofcourse) if it's a skill-based gambling.
So, i wouldn't worry if it's a probability based gambling. I probably will just "trust" the kid thesame way I "trust" my chances to win a probability based game. But I wouldn't trust him if it's a skill-based game he/she doesn’t know how it works
So far the amount there is not much, I won't get upset with the kid because children are known to do awkward things in an innocent way without intentions.
Moreover, a child playing the bets is more like a version of an inexperienced me when I started out gambling newly. There is no sudden luck as there is no strategy when playing it. But what I won't support in anyway is letting my kids to learn gambling or tamper with it again.

For me I just dont mind. Well that's a pretty intense situation but if its talking about a child or kid not even know that is so important how can you blame them?
It's also on our duty as parent to keep away important stuff from our children if they accidentally touch or whatever that made us lose in gambling that's our fault. I love gambling but I am sure even though this is just a scenario I will not scold my kid over it.

I am not very good at gambling myself so I'll likely try out the child's fumbling except it's not a very ridiculous odd accumulation or if the entire deposit was put into the wager.
As for getting mad, the mistake was due to my carelessness so I can't get too angry.
Another question should be; what percentage of the winnings is the child entitled to should the game be successful?

The kid is just being himself, no need to scold him or get angry, it's your fault you should do your thing away from your child, just tell your kid that he should not touch anything without asking permission first, and next time do your gambling stuff in your room away from the eyes of your kids.
Angry with children in such situation will not change things for the better, bet is running let it continue to run and finished but our kids must not continue to watch it, he must return to his activity and as a parent must inform the kid to permission when want to use something there isn't belong to him, and also educate kid that gambling is only for those who have grown up and understand the risks.
I think this is a typical reaction to what may parents feel.
Then I may add a question to that, what if you just had a kid on your house, I mean the child is not yours 😂 would you still react the way you're guessing right now? In my case I would be definitely feel irritated at the kid and leave my place and look for another to stay. And I will also hope the bets were correct LoL. Thia one will be difficult, maybe I will only get mad if I have a huge fund and it ends up losing while I am away. But, whenever if it wins or loses I will tell the child not to touch anything that is not his\hers without permision.
Poor child. He can only hope you will win because if not it is going to be his fault. I don't think this is fair. The child is innocent to what happened. Whether you will lose or win with that accident, the child is not to be blamed. Actually, you are to be blamed for letting the child reach to your laptop or computer. I am referring to a little child here, not someone who is aware that his father is doing something very important and he should not touch his things.

A lot of people, will answer to not angry to their kid. It is humanity, because if we really love our children we will try as much as possible to make our children happy, maybe words like this will be easy to say, but indeed it should be because money can still be sought but scolding a child may be traumatizing him. For someone who often scolded by my parents, i wouldn't do that to my children.

Childrens always be liked something new and they will always be so curious to figure out new things around them and because i let them entering my room and let my PC on then i wouldn't blame them from my negligence but i will tell and teach to them do not using other people's belongings without permission but i would be so glad if accidentally bets from my childrens won

This is a funny scenario. I think I would not be blaming the child. He is a child after all. He does not know anything about what he is doing. If there is still something you can do to save what your child did, do it. But if there is none. Let it be. You cannot undo everything. Getting mad at the child will not make things better. It will only make it worst. You just hope that the bets accidentally made by your child will be lucky.
It depends on the age of my kids. I have a teenager and a toddler, so if the latter did it I wont get mad and will understand what she did since she is still naive and clueless for this kind of thing.
However if my eldest is the one who make the bet, I will scold him for meddling in my business. Nevertheless it already happened so I have no choice but to trust him for this one and accept the result of his bet.

I don't get angry with the kid, but perhaps, I only smile to him and telling him that it is not right to use something that he doesn't belong to him. He needs to ask my permission to use the computer, and if I allow him, then he can use my computer to play. But that is after I close my works. I don't want that kid to play any game even if that is only a game before he asked my permission.
That is happening to me with my nephew. Before he uses my laptop or computer, he always asked me if he can use that or not. If I said yes, then he will use it and stop playing if I want to use my computer.

No no. Nuh uh. My policy is for kids to learn at an early age what they can and can't touch, and me gambling is one of those. Plus, money is involved in this little incident, and well, we all know what the importance of such a thing is for our everyday lives. Id rather teach the kid how to use the pc, what to touch and not to touch instead. Ofc, id explain why they shouldn't be touched since most accidents occur because of lil ol curiosity hanging around.
I'll be upset for sure. And it will also depends on the kid, if he/she always doing such kind of stuffs, like what you mention.
Because money involved there. But in the end, it's still your fault because at the first place you didn't secure your mobile or any device.
It could be a lesson for us for sure once this will happen.

This is the scenario I think will happen in my case.
What I see is, if I'm making bets online then someone interrupts it and I leave my desktop, then this kid takes over my seat, it will not be interested in what they see on that page so instead of playing on his own, on which that kid didn't even know how to place a bet, they will open a new tab then began browsing to other sites like Youtube, Y8 games, etc.
It depends on the kid's behavior. But for let's say, they really placed a bet, then no choice but to accept it. Besides, I'm just putting a fair amount in betting sites. I just hope that kid's luck will help me lol.

Of course your first reaction is that you will be upset. But kids are kids, so you need to have a lot of patience for them. I don't think it happen to me, but the closest scenario I can think of is that when I downloaded something and just went out for a few minutes and then all of a sudden when I came back I see one of my niece playing in my laptop and all my downloads went back to zero.
Lol, I was so mad but I can't do anything and I learn my lessons not to do something important in front of kids.
It depends actually but first of all why would I trust it to a kid? 
But it's great that you bring this up because there might be a time that we are so preoccupied at the moment because of our busy days. It would be better to put it away from the children because kids don't know what they were doing and I don't want to ruin my whole bankroll just for a kids to play alone. And if there were times that they managed to touch it, I think I shouldn't be playing gambling games when there are kids around.
