let the youth learn, but the fact that young people start playing games of chance with gambling can be a very bad trend.
But do not underestimate the new generations, I am not finding they will get suffered due to gambling addictions like the gamblers did in early days of internet. One prime reason which is supportive for young generation of gambler is they are into multiple engagements. They easily get distracted by social media so the chances for them to spend more time with gambling will be very less and when they will be limited with gambling, the chances to get addicted will be very less to zero.
Probability that may arise for a child of their age is very high, which is the stage of recognition and learning attitudes similar to behavior of adults. My point if they are comfortable with social media addiction, they will not get away from the addiction, and so if they have an interest in gambling, they will choose to be comfortable and continue to develop attention without thinking of other pleasures.
If you want to finish someone's addiction (the person under the age of 18), just cut their money source. These people are young and probably live with the parents, receive money from the parents and the only way these teenagers are betting is if they use the income the parents pay them. Cutting this income, they will have to stop playing and with bonus, maybe they start looking for work.
Teenagers now a days really accepts money from their parents and they sort of using it in illegal like gambling in some country or sort of vice. A young teen will enter in gambling will really be addicted to it. Then in getting older he/she also getting addicted to it but the thing is he/she using the money of his parents and not from his hardwork
