It is funny that we prohibit kids these days to gamble while in our childhood days, we are the ones that gamble all the time despite of us in the younger age. I think that is just a reflection that we should not tolerate them to gamble.

We are the ones who has the experience and knowledge about gambling and so we should know how to stop them and make them understand the risks and future effects of gambling to themselves. My favorite gambling game in my childhood is betting on spiders we caught in the mountains. We catch spiders, put it in a stick and let them fight to death. I've won a lot of money that time but I am just a child that time, that money I'm winning that time is so small compared to what I am getting with my pay right now.

I have never thought of it that way, but it is true. I think parents that see their kids doing gambling or anything related to it has thought to themselves that they might get addicted, but the truth is, they are still children, and they might forget it unless it brings an essential memory to thought.

Wow, that's an awesome game. I remember that, and now I have seen videos about it, and giant spiders don't mean it's a strong spider. Some spiders are smaller but is more deadly. It's just a hobby, and its a game, not a money making thing. As long as it's fun.

It is really fun and it is more exciting when there are more big spiders and more children want to fight the spiders they've caught on the mountains. Sometimes these spiders can be seen on the side of provincial roads.

I know that it is just a game, a way of having fun while we are in our childhood but when we are children, cock fighting is so popular in our place that the way of betting of them in cock fighting was influenced by how we bet on our spiders. Even the adults bet on some of the spider's fight but as I said, the bet at that time is not that much, it is just really for fun.
