Among young people is a result of the availability of gambling alternatives, such as sports betting and online gambling. Gambling disorders can have long-term effects on a person's ability to complete their education and choose their future, and young individuals may be particularly susceptible to acquiring these illnesses

I'd say YouTube, Tiktok, and any other social media out there have a higher chance of making younger audiences susceptible to being unable to complete their education. Well making this off of a single video might be overreacting but hey, I've seen... things. More than enough to prove in my eyes that those things are poison for young kids.

Anyway, gambling can easily be seen as a pretty normal day-to-day activity if people know how to limit themselves. It's just like playing games. Playing games for say, 3,4 hours a day or 7,8 hours every weekend? Those are pretty normal imo. Playing 8 hours every damn day? Now that's an addiction (if you were a kid, if you were say a streamer then that's just part of the job). If parents have a problem with their kids having one, educate them, simple as that. It may take time, yes, but fixing anything ALWAYS takes time.

Well, there it goes and as much as we want to eliminate that we can only mitigate. Kids these days are too good on how they will want what they want and that's not surprising. To parents I think a regular monitoring will favor to them as long as you do it right too. It's not because they're good at it but as a parent that have children that are vulnerable to these illnesses you should be good too.

I think this effect is not only limited to young person but also to all grade and type of humans but I will agree that the young are the really exposed ones as their mind are subtle and can be easily influenced and this affects them easily but a fair of the same illness goes for everyone and that's why gambling need to be followed with care and not with rush because you never can tell the effect until it's becomes an impossible task to solve.

If you have youths under your guidance, educate them about gambling, tell them why it is important that they do not secretly start gambling thinking they are doing well for themselves, because addiction to gambling at a young age when they are not yet financially independent can make them engage themselves in many unnecessary and sometimes illegal activity to make sure that they can get money that they can use in gambling. If you also understand the kind of environment where you stay and see that there is a high rate of gambling amongst the youths, try to make the youths under your guidance know that they can enjoy sports and even games without the need to gamble.

Youth are still not ok to gamble, and exposing them into this kind of market can make their life horrible.
They are too emotional for this and yes, gambling disorder might develop if many young people will go to gambling. Let's be more responsible parent or guardian to those young people, let's encourage them to choose what is best for them and not to do the same mistake that we did, they should have a better future and in gambling, they will not see it.

Teenagers are more susceptible to developing addictions and getting themselves involved in risky situations, because they are in a period of vulnerability and physical maturation, besides their personality not being completely developed yet. There are important changes happening on their bodies, including their brains, so it's important to give them properly guidance on how to deal with the threats, challenges and pleasures of life on this moment of their journeys.

Not that they should be excluded from every activities adults consider harmful, rather they should be exposed to it, but in a responsible way by an adult, who will show them how to practice it in a healthy and harmless way. That is the case of gambling. Youth have to be aware about the existence of this practice and understand how it works, so they will be more prepared to deal with it without prejudice for them from that moment on.

While gambling brings a health risk most especially for young and less knowledgeable individuals, that is why parental guidance is of high importance so that no more teens will be able to gamble unless they have reached their legal age to access gambling. Otherwise, they will become doomed and will definitely fall on the traps of gambling while leaving their education second priority next to gambling.

With the ease of facilities available to the current generation of young people, gambling can have a long-term impact on young people. They are very vulnerable to the gambling advertisements they often encounter on social media. But if the parents of these young people can pay attention to their children, they will be able to grow well and will try to avoid things that could have a bad impact on their lives. These vulnerable young people still need guidance from their parents during their growing years so they don't go down the wrong path. So, each parent needs to supervise them well so that they can complete their education on time and have a better future.

Too much of everything is bad, and gambling is no exception to that, which is why when people gamble, its advisable people gamble responsibly, and not make it a do-or-die affair, as that's where the spirit of being an addict starts from (i.e. when a teenager sees gambling as his only source of income and last hope for life). However, taking a look at this image below, one can easily understand that the age bracket of people said to be gambling addicts are those of age bracket 18yrs to 24yrs, followed by those of age bracket 25yrs to 35yrs. Which means these are potential gambling addict, and as such, it will be wise if anyone gamble responsibly.

I am sincerely bothered by the rise in gambling and its addiction among youngsters. These folks spend time, money and their resources on different gambling websites and on sports betting. It seems as if more than the monetary gain, they want to fulfil a psychological need. It is so dangerous as the OP has mentioned that in the future there would be care homes dedicated to those recovering from gambling. And of course mental illness should be taken as seriously as physical illness. The future of our young ones is at stake and something must be done about it.

Gambling was the asset of the young people,because the involvement of the youngsters in the gambling was nearly eighty percentage.Because the youngsters had an capacity to take any decision,the thinking power of the younger people will be high compared to the old people.The old people had the experience,but they not have potential to take risk of the money of for the thrill from the game.The old people will have the mind of holding funds in the assets and the saving.Because they offer think about their money need at the last days of their life.Educating the gambling to the college people will increase the involvement of youngsters on the gambling.

It is dangerous for the younger people specifically minors to engage in gambling activities because they are not developed yet to handle the temptation and most of these minors ends up being addicted to gambling, affecting their studies and relationship with others. Gambling is never been an asset but instead many find it a liability that negatively affect young adult that resulted in harming them instead of helping them due to their immaturity and little experience handling the situation.

The accessibility of gambling options can indeed pose risks to young people. But that fact alone is not enough to make someone develop a gambling addiction or other related mental disorders. Things like socio-economic conditions, family relationships, quality of education, peer influences ... all can play a role.

Specific for young gamblers if they're students and can't afford to gamble, the influence that they've taken really should be the one to be blamed for. Yeah, they should be blamed for their actions but if there's no one that has introduced them to gambling then they won't be ending up in that situation. And this addiction isn't just for the youths but also for everybody and that's how gambling addiction completely affects everybody. On a grander scale, the same future and the same problem will be caused by the not students who are also taking part in gambling. Those that can't control their emotions are more prone to it.

Anything which is additive is a bad thing, especially during those precious moments when a brain is still growing and developing. During such vital moments, the young minds need to be kept safe and on the right path. Obviously anything that interferes with the brains development will end up having life-long consequences.

So, to the kids I say: first complete your education and when you are finished, you will have more than enough time to pick and choose whichever fun activities you like.

Not many kids have good parent figures, so obviously there are a lot of kids running around, gambling and doing much worse stuff. Hopefully if they read this they will re-think on their decisions and turn their lives around for the better.

This is the major reason why minors are not allowed in engaging with gambling activities. They are too young to understand the risk of gambling and at the same time, their brains are still underdeveloped in terms of logical thinking so they are susceptible to develop gambling problem. According to this article: https://www.mass.gov/info-details/teens-gambling-its-a-risk, the list are noiced in minors:

Gambling disorders can begin in children as young as 10 years old
Problem gambling impacts about 4-8% of youths, compared to just 1% of adults
By the time they get to high school, 60-80% of students reported that they gambled at least once in the past 12 months
Teens who gamble are more likely to use illegal drugs
Among all addictions, gambling is linked to the highest suicide rate

We cannot change technological advances which make it easier for the younger generation to gamble and also make more and more gamblers and addicts, they are just curious or just joining in.
And they must know the consequences that will occur if they get involved in gambling and their mistakes in not anticipating the risks they will face, and also realize if they have gone too far and try to control it.
And the younger generation likes to make money in a short time and doesn't want to work harder so gambling is the right income option for them so they forget to think about the negative side because there is a big possibility of losing money. And gambling is just a platform and users should think clearly and also know the consequences before doing it.

Gambling temptations nowadays exist everywhere and we have no choice but to deal with all of it. The younger generation can't escape from it but as parents, we can still do something to guide and remind our children about the risks of gambling.
It's hard to avoid nowadays but if they're aware and knowledgeable about it, they would know if it's appropriate for them to gamble or not. We should enlighten the younger generation about the possible effects of too much gambling so they can be careful of their actions.

How about this who play sports directly, sooner or later, without them knowing they might be exposed early to this kind of sports betting. Let's say football, we all know that there are huge money involved as far as this sports. And that is why we hear games being rigged in below or low tournament. So if they started young at this sports they will already know how gambling works here and who knows, they could get themselves involved early and approach by some entities to deliberate lose a game or just do point shaving. Unless the youth is really not into it or doesn't want to ruin and have dreams to really play on the big league. But they are very susceptible and it takes a lot of guts to be able to shrug it away.

Show me your friend and I will tell you, who you are is a say. What I see about young people going into gambling is based on the company that they keep and the environment where they grow up from. Id a young boy has a friend that his elderly ones gambles and he sees them doing it, he can likely copy from them and take this to his friends which they might want to try it out. I could remember when I say gambling for the first time was when I just got admission into college, there are some groups of boys that are friends only when they want to gamble. When school is over, they wait behind to gamble and I noticed that majority of them has elder ones in the university that do gamble and that was how got into gambling. This is the main reason why we need to know the friends that our children keep and who they mingle with when they are not around you, because the youth exorbitance must come to play.
