I want to know if anyone here gambles or have gambled under the age of 18, I feel like there are many kids who do this and I am interested to see how many people actually gamble under 18, if you have any friends that gamble or have gambled under 18 include them.


EDIT: I mean mostly kids online, its hard to be a kid and gamble physically. I feel like the gambling rate for kids is increasing a lot and is gonna be a problem in the future, especially with the CS:GO situation.

EDIT2: Another question to ask, is what is your opinion on the topic of kids gambling, do you think it is a growing problem or a problem alone for that matter?

EDIT3: What is the best way to counter this problem without websites having to know your exact identity?

Everyone gambles, I mean who knows?! Behind the screen, you are playing or talking to a teenager. That's the downside of the internet, everyone can use them. I know some who are at the age of 15-17 and gambles a lot. The only solution for that is for the parent to check on what their kid is doing online but I doubt there are parents who checks their kids every day and see what they are up to while on the internet, especially if the parents are busy. My opinion on kids gambling is that it may be a growing problem but it actually is up to the parents to correct them.
