Sophisticated devices and the money they get without any supervision will indeed make children more free to access anything.
Especially if as a parent, you don't know how to use a smartphone to monitor your child's activities.
Trying to pamper the child, even though it is the beginning of destruction for the child because it is without any supervision.

This kind of thing happens a lot in my environment, minors already have their own smartphones and are free to access anything,
because of the lack of parental control.

But it's not just children who are vulnerable, but someone who is desperate and has a hard time making money ends up getting into gambling to make more money.
Maybe their initial deposit is as small as $2-$5 and doesn't affect anything when losing, but they keep doing it in the hope of getting a Big Win Jackpot,
But in the end after making a lot of deposits there is no big win, but only a small win that in the end if calculated will not return their capital.

Pampering children without controlling them will be bad for them because they think they have power to use the money. Many children think that money can buy anything so that can be in their minds. As parents, they need to know what their children does and guide them to do a good things as nowadays, many children can easily harass or bad things to other children. And yes, when we talk about gambling, many people will tempting easily to keep playing gambling including teenager who can not control themselves yet better.

What we concern is the increasing number of children who gamble freely. We may see teenager playing gambling in some area without thinks about they are not allow that yet. And in a country that prohibit gambling, they even easily to playing gambling using their smartphone and use VPN to visit on the online casino.

Poor people have the desire to be rich so that their lives can change and many poor people fall into gambling because they think that by gambling they can make money easier than having to work hard for this reason that makes them very vulnerable to becoming gambling addicts without them realizing it and in the end they will be trapped in an increasingly difficult situation some take loans to catch up on their previous losses because most poor people are not willing to lose their money in this way.

Gambling addiction always occurs because of obsession and high expectations of winning, meaning that when from the start you only see gambling from the side of the chance of winning and do not know that gambling is not a place to earn or a place to solve financial problems then addiction is a possibility that you will definitely experience consciously or not.

There is no doubt about that, or what you say is very true , but as easy as it is to become Addicted I think it is that simple not to fall , in many of my posts I have given as a protective option that before playing in any casino the player must establish that the things that cause addiction are money , if we control our money or if we limit the money to play we will not have any problem , because if we say that we will only spend an amount x, when we get there the secret will be not to put in more money and leave.

1. If you are jobless you are vulnerable to anything.
2. If all you focused on is getting rich quick you are vulnerable to anything.

People who fit into these categories often find themselves hanging by a thread and that spells desperation for most of them. These guys are often out to survive or get the best out of this world and many times, these things doesn’t just happen to you, they don’t get blown out of thine air and there isn’t any quick way to it. You’ve got to take it slow and handle it good eventually.
Don’t be overcome by possibilities because, being in either of these categories, all you see is possibilities even in an uncalculated risk situations. It could really lead to some addiction towards habits that could be rewarding and reducing as well.

The most vulnerable in my opinion are those that are not financially stable, these category of people have more to lose than those that make money constantly..if what you earn monthly is barely enough to take you through out a month then you should reconsider cutting down your stakes or quitting totally because you are highly vulnerable to the negative effects of gambling...As a gambler who doesn't have much you must learn not to always gamble wrecklessly, be disciplined so you don't end up being vulnerable to the effects of this dangerous habit.

True, they’re very reckless in every decision, and that’s why if you don’t have money, don’t rely too much on luck. You need at least hard work and effort to lift yourself from the bottom. Gambling isn’t really a way to find a safe haven, it can destroy you financially and emotionally. That’s why I don’t like gambling much in general. I only do it for fun and thrill.

Like I’ve been trying to say, there’s no consistent money from gambling. You need a strong mindset to stay in it longer, or else you’ll become vulnerable and let your emotions take over.

Actually you are making a very good point because it is the poor people that goes into gambling mostly because them feel that the gambling is only placed that can make them to be out of poverty that is why you will see them been addicted in the gambling but that does not mean that you win and balling for you to be consistent gambler for you to win in gambling is all about opportunity and if it opportunity comes you win a gambling that is why I will agree with you that the meaning of gambling is based on privilege not based on merit so in gambling even the rich people get addicted to gambling not to only the poor people that is being addicted in gambling

In the end, gambling does not actually take into account economic status, whether rich or poor, both will face the risk of addiction.

That's true, and that's exactly the point I was trying to drive to, considering the fact that both rich or poor stand the chance of getting addicted to gambling if only they both lack discipline (self control). Because inasmuch as financial status is crucial to gambling, I could assure you that there still some poor people who gamble responsibly, despite not having enough, simply because they understood what gambling is as a game of luck, hence gambling what they can always afford to lose.

Moreover, regarding what O.P said about adolescent been the second tiers of people prone to gambling, I will say that it's only kids with poor or bad parenting that you will see getting addicted to gambling at an adolescent age, a period when they were supposed to be serious with their education. Hence, I think everybody has a role to play in ensuring a condusive atmosphere for all age brackets.

In fact, both rich and poor people are equally vulnerable to gambling. Rich people with their wealth can gamble anytime and anywhere. While poor people with all their difficulties can make them narrow-minded and plunge into the world of gambling, in the hope that through gambling their financial condition can be resolved.

Rich people with the financial freedom they have, they may think that they have enough control over financial risks and use gambling as a form of entertainment or just to get an adrenaline rush. They will not be too worried about the risk of losing money because they are considered capable enough to support their lifestyle, so gambling is considered a recreational activity. This is for starters, because when they have entered the abyss of gambling addiction, it can take away everything they have.

And so it is with the poor who often harbor false hopes, imagining that gambling can improve their financial condition. Their pressure, despair and inability to live their lives have led them to try their luck. But what actually happens is that this gambling will only make their lives more difficult.

In the end, gambling does not actually take into account economic status, whether rich or poor, both will face the risk of addiction.

We know that in this age, online gambling is too rampant, and social platforms such as FB are often used to promote gambling.

And most of all today is the ones who are always addicted to people who are hopeless but their thoughts that they are rich in gambling, but the fact is that the design of online gambling is not the same.

We already know that less privileged people are more prone to getting addicted to gambling with the involvement of financial reward. They are the ones chasing more wins because they actually need the money. The more money they get, the deeper they get into the addiction.

The gambling addiction of the Les privileged people is very alarming as anyone involved in it will see it as a gateway out of poverty which in reality it’s not. The mental stress and strain accompanied with not being able to satisfy your needs, hardships of life can make you want to consider gambling as an alternative way to get out of the vulnerable lifestyle, but it pose a big risk to the less privileged and vulnerable ones only if they know.

Quote

Another demographic that is more likely to get addicted to gambling are adolescents. Adolescents are aged 12-18. The rise of online casinos made way to more kids getting access into gambling. It is said that male adolescents are the ones most recorded to have ended up addicted in gambling. Their addiction is usually associated with sports and mobile games betting.

Adolescents that are getting into gambling are being pushed by the peer groups they find themselves. Another thing that could push them to join gambling as an adolescent is social media. When an adolescents with little or no knowledge about the outside lifestyle, the legal and the illegal ways of making money, the rich based on luck and those base on hardwork, and can’t differentiate them, he’ll easily fall into the quickest way to make money which one of them is gambling without proper risk management on them, it becomes hard for him and will lose more in the end.

Yes, the possibility of addiction applies to everyone regardless of who they are, old or young, poor or rich, everyone has the opportunity to end up becoming an addict, and in the end the point is not much different from what you said that if we don't want to end up addicted then gamble wisely in the sense of gambling with full limits on time and the amount of money at stake.
Therefore, this is the reason why I often say and advise anyone, especially those closest to me, to first understand what they are actually facing, the way is to rely on a rational mindset in responding to gambling so that you do not misunderstand what is meant by the chance of winning in gambling, and if you have done everything well and correctly then I think you should be free from addiction.

The most vulnerable are those who bet on something they are not very good at, or those who are into slots, where I think it is almost impossible to win from a casino except for some random chance that I would definitely not rely on. And it also depends on how much the player is ready to take risks and how much money he is ready to play, rich or poor, they can equally lose all their money if they do not stop in time.

If only possibility, that was true but he is talking about same chances there, which I disagree because not all are vulnerable. Also, in most countries, the legal age of gambling is 18 years old and above, so there is no way that young people are going to get addicted on it, however there are still video games which has a loot boxes (which is said to be another form of gambling) and a lot of kids are addicted to it.

If we still talk about the age, there are really-old people who are not capable anymore of gambling or do any other addictive things but they are only waiting for their lives to end. (I'm sorry if that sounds offensive, I don't mean it though). Same goes to the new-born individuals.

The only thing, they can do is to eat (drink milk) and wait for them to grow. If we don't want to end up becoming an addict in gambling, then there is a better way than still gambling but playing wisely and that is none other than to not gamble at all.

This is more sure because I'm sure that no matter how confident we are, there will be something that will play tricks on us and screw us in the process. Gambling is not hard to understand and we will literally just push the button to play but the problem is our emotions that can jump depending on the outcome of the game.

Previously thank you for detailing everything my friend, but above I spoke in general and aren't all the details you explained also included in the category that I explained regarding young or old and poor or rich? I think so, so I think there is no problem with that, the point is that addiction does apply to everyone involved in gambling and the only thing that can save them is to have the right understanding and awareness regarding what and how the concept of gambling really is, especially in winning.

If you don't want to be addicted then don't get involved in gambling at all? of course, everyone knows that when you are not involved in the activity then you will not experience the positive or negative impacts of the activity, but the problem is doesn't everyone have their own right to choose whatever they want to do my friend? of course, therefore above I direct my ideas more to some suggestions that I think are useful to prevent someone involved in gambling from gambling addiction, namely by knowing and understanding first about what activity you are actually facing regardless of the unwanted possibilities when someone has gone through the process.

Well, that's true, if someone is jobless then that person often tries to find ways to earn money and when such people find gambling on online casinos then that person often starts daydreaming about earning so much money from it.

It's not easy to get rich when you can't afford to fulfill your everyday needs, and that's why one should first get a job to fulfill his/her everyday needs and then gamble if he/she earns some extra money by doing part time job.

I fear these two types of people, there is a saying that people who don't have anything going on for themselves will turn evil very fast because they have too much free time doing nothing.

Children are to concentrate on their education and adults are to concentrate on their jobs, but today things are getting out of hands, everyone want things to happen faster, things are hard I get but lack of understanding that good things take time will send many people down the trap holes.

Gambling needs to be mastered, not to be consumed by get rich quick.

This will come back to each individual, because there are also people with busy activities who also become uncontrollable in their gambling, especially when they have money. That's what happened to one of my friends when I was still working with him. He worked and the distance traveled from home to work took a long time. So logically he spent quite a short time to rest.
But what happened? he was willing to not sleep and work in a sleepy state because he spent all night gambling. Actually I wouldn't have known that if he hadn't told me himself.
Now we have lost communication, but I hope he can be better at controlling himself.

What you are saying I think is very true, because indeed economic instability and social pressure can encourage people to look for shortcuts, such as gambling or get-rich-quick schemes, which are often high-risk and unsustainable. In addition, patience in achieving long-term goals is a principle that we should instill in today's young generation,

The saying you mentioned reminds us that having meaningful goals and activities is very important for mental and emotional well-being, especially the family, to prevent what you fear, we should be the foremost pillar that supports children and adolescents in their education, so that the future is more assured that they will get when they grow up later.

The most vulnerable are the jobless ones, those that don't earn a living and with the fact that they had a one time win had urge them to go into taking gambling as a source of living and income and looking at the rate of gambling addiction the younger generations are another vulnerable person's that as turned addict while journeying in the quest for quick money. And it seems the rate of gambling addiction keeps going higher and this has to stop cause it's resulting to alot of damages in the lives of the individuals and society.

Nobody seems to be willing to do anything to address gambling addiction on a government scale. Sure, you can geoblock casinos, but a shady entity will just fly under the radar and advertise on questionable local sites.

It depends on the actual regulation because in this case when there is a regulation where gambling becomes illegal in a country then indeed they will try to make a breakthrough by blocking gambling sites but the focus is only as a responsibility for the regulations they set but not necessarily responsible for the addiction of gamblers in their country.
But by trying to ban at least they feel that it can reduce the number of gambling to be smaller and addiction can be slightly anticipated as a domino effect of the ban.

Even so, on some occasions we also realize that sometimes it doesn't look at anything so in the end even those government officials still gamble a lot today so they won't think of others in the real addiction problem because they (the officials) are still in the scope of gambling as players and still try not to be considered as addicts for now.

The problem is that the parents aren't free with their children. In Western countries, most parents work, and their children live alone in the house, and sometimes they don't even have friends outside of school. So, they end up on the internet and spend their time browsing various and restricted things to which they should not have access.

But the parents aren't aware of those things because they are busy handling their business or job. In other countries, children mostly love to spend time with friends, and the parents are a little harsh with their children. If parents know their children's doing something bad, they even beat their children, which western countries consider as child abuse.

You are right because not just in Western countries, in many countries have the same thing so attention for their children will be less. They are busy to work and earn money but they forget to educate, take closest to their children, communicate and other things that will help them to manage their relationship. And when their parents just gives them device and money without trying to gets deeper with their children, they can use that for many things including browsing various and restricted things that they should not do in their ages.

Parents becomes far from their children and their children becomes rebel to their parents and run away from family because they thinks that they are alone and they will closest to their friends. They thinks that their friends knows everything but it is not because they are still younger which needs to learn many things.
