Therefore, we should not take advantage of the sincerity of our parents, such as using pocket money for gambling, obviously it is a bad act. Honestly I don't understand those who do it, but in my opinion if the child has a good personality and knows how to appreciate then I think something like that will not happen, I mean they will not be able to use their pocket money for gambling. I think whether you're using your own money or your parents' money, it's definitely not a good idea to spend it on gambling, it's better not to do it at all.
I think this happens mostly during the teenage stage, and at that time, the kid is not yet working or earning from anywhere, so they are just yet dependent on their parents, and some of these kids go gambling with their pocket money because they believe they can make more money. But for a full-grown adult to still rely on their parents for every one of their needs and yet still gamble with the money they are getting from their parents or their guidance, then it's wrong. Gambling at such an age should be done with money that you worked for, not another person's money that was gifted to you. While I was still in university, my parents would handle almost all my bills, and I still gambled with the money I got from them, but now I am making some money and I can do whatever I want with my money.
It is definitely a problem when a teenager is gambling with money that is not even theirs, however most of the time this is just part of what being a teenager is about, as when we were that age we did all kind of crazy things that when we think about it the first thing that comes to our minds is what were we thinking? However an adult that is also in that situation is a completely different thing, as they are immersed in a very unhealthy dynamic with their family by not earning their own money at that age.
