The question is how to achieve that? In today's world and as a father myself, I can tell you that it's practically impossible to control or even keep an eye on your children 24/7. Kids, if they are not out with their friends, they will stay in their rooms with phones/tablets/PCs and open access to the internet or watching TVs with all sorts of ads. How can you protect them from all this and limit their exposure to ads and content which is not suitable for their age?
It is impossible to control or even supervise your children 24/7 but you have to keep trying to keep your relationship with them closer. If you can establish that close relationship, they will be more open to you and willing to tell you a lot about their world.

I see this trend occurring because parents are busy with their work, so they are less able to supervise their children and don't even know what their children are doing. As parents, we must try to approach our children because with today's technological advances, we can invite them to study together and not leave them alone playing on phones/tablets/PCs and others. When we can explain what is good and not good for them, they will slowly understand and not try to try. Parental supervision is very necessary for this.
Definitely need parental supervision and control over what your child does with a mobile phone, tablet or computer. 
And if you notice suspicious sites that the child went to, it's always worth finding out what those sites are.  This definitely applies to online gambling.  By the way, it is not always necessary to directly ask the child why he went to some sites.  This can only hurt and he will be offended that you are following him.  And even worse, he can make password entries and you won’t know at all what he is doing on the Internet. 
In short, one must be careful and careful in communicating with the child on the issue of communications on the network.



Well, I do agree with that. that parental supervision and proper child education are required It is also true that parents can't monitor their children 24/7; thus, they can't watch the child's internet activities. There is a lot out there competing for children's attention with the rise of gamification, social media, and online gaming. When children engage in online media that resembles gambling, they may be exposed to more untrustworthy websites. However, some children are more tech-savvy than their parents. Shall we say a parent can simply block apps or restrict certain apps for children aged 10 or below because for sure the child doesn't know what the gambling apps are or the apps that are not suitable for them? But how about those children under the age of 18 who are now able to understand and manipulate phone apps or websites? We can't simply say that we can just communicate with them if they do things at their own will right? How will you be able to solve this? Children older than 10 years old probably know how the internet works and how they can encrypt passwords or hide their internet activities. It would not be adequate if parents put their child's internet activity under 24/7 surveillance.
