But I think even though children or teenagers are taught about money management, losses and gains, they are still unstable so if they lose many times, their young blood will be turbulent and make them want to recover their losses.
Would it be better, if children from early age understand the whole path of a gambler and being addicted? To test everything on their own skin. Would it better if they gamble and lose in childhood, that when they turn adult, they would already have experience. I mean, when they are kids, they cant make as big fails as they make while being adults. Isnt it better for kid to lose lunch money and learn the lesson, than to lose a monthly salary at the age of 40 ?
Of course not, especially if they have started gambling early because it only triggers gambling addiction when they start growing up. If they were kids, they could have had a losing experience in gambling and we don't know what the effect would be. Maybe we can teach them a lesson about how dangerous gambling is, but not try to play gambling because their young age still can't control their emotions. When they grow up, they should be able to understand why their parents used to say that gambling could lead to bankruptcy so they would never try it.
