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.

Teenage age is a really complicated time of the young persons. They want to have a feel of so many things around them. Just like toddlers that you try to prevent from crawling to dangerous environment but they will keep going back there. So this is synonymous to the actions of a young person and this is why they need to be properly guided so that they won't be mislead .

Parents need to teach their children on the good, the bad and their effects but we also know that the children learn faster from what they see their parents doing so the first place of control is the parents not to exibit character not worthy to be emulate. If a parent is a gambler of course the child could likely be emulating that especially if the parent is unconsciously lose about that by not taking precautions of hiding it from the child.

Yes, that's right, adolescence is a time when they are still looking for their identity, even though they are still vulnerable to negative things without the help of parental supervision, this is very dangerous for teenagers in the future.
Yes, good and correct educational guidance from parents to their teenage children is very important because it is from parents that they learn and become role models for their behavior. If there are some parents who have been involved in gambling, it is better to just keep quiet and not tell about it to their children or another step is to provide an understanding that gambling will indeed have a bad impact on someone, for example we will lose all our money and some will be ostracized from beloved family due to the consequences of gambling.
