Re: Gambling Exposed to children

It is bad that our children are born to meet gambling as a game,which will drain and suck them financially and emotionally of the little dime they got.The internet is a tool that facilitates online gambling,but since it can't be scrapped off,we just have to bear,and make do with it as one of the disadvantage of the internet.

Well, here the role of parents is very important to control their children, to keep controlling their activities on the internet which often opens certain videos with smartphones. But in my place.. the video about the gambling site has not been clearly listed/often appears on youtube or other social media.

Unfortunately this is difficult to do, kids have access to all kind of technology that was unthinkable just a decade ago and even if you can control what they are watching in the devices you bought this does not holds true when they are using the devices of other kids, so while direct protection from this kind of information seems like the best option at the same time it is never going to be enough, which is why it is important to have a talk about why something like gambling is not good for them at such an early age.

True, though I could control my children from playing online games, he is tend to play on his grand father's mobile device from other places. This is really a challenging one. As said, instead of protecting or controlling them from playing, its always best to educate them why they should not play the game. That should be explained in a way they understand.

In terms of using the internet and playing games, children nowadays are extremely difficult to control. We can't really prevent them because we live in a technological age where almost everyone has access to the internet. What we can do now is talk to them and educate them about the risks of the internet. We also know that they are aware of betting in online games but aren't aware that it is gambling because they think it's just for fun so we should also educate them with this.
