When a minor becomes addicted to gambling, it can sometimes lead to dangerous behavior. A minor boy fails to control himself. He may sometimes behave abnormally. Here it is the duty of a father to take care of his son at least till he reaches adulthood. A little delay here can sometimes lead to great danger. Which may never be recovered.
It can be the mother of the minor, or someone else he/she is living with, not necessarily their father. It can be their therapist, or an online influencer even. Minors should know that gambling is for adults only. And like all other adults-only things they can be harmful for minors in many ways.
Gambling is just like a very strong addiction which is very hard to leave. It is like a spirit that keep telling us to keep doing a particular thing and if we don't control ourselves, it's going to get to an extent where it will be very hard to stop. Gambling affecting both the parent and the children looks like a trait that is gotten from the parent.
You know children are more interested and attracted to what they see which is the reason why they have higher chances to copy form what they see everyday especially from their parent. This is normal and is what children tend to do especially when they are seeing it everyday.
When someone first starts gambling he doesn't think that he will fall into a big addiction. Then he goes there to get an experience. And to get extra pleasure they start playing extra gambling and thus he falls into a big addiction. But it mostly occurs in young people. And if a child sees his parent gambling, he tends to gamble more . So parents should be careful first then their children will be careful
