Instead of outrightly banning gambling, how about if the concerned countries officially include gambling education in their academic syllabus, just like sex education is taught in schools. Gambling education will teach the young ones the dangers of gambling and promote moderation in gambling. Will this not be a better way to handle the gambling cases?

This is interesting, but what is the urgency of gambling education for society or in schools? All students are initially taught ethics and norms apart from reading and so on, this education is enough for their basics. BTW, I'm talking about education in my country. Regarding gambling, it is the same as other types of fun. Even though it is prohibited by the country, some people, groups, communities will try to get around it, including against the law, even as you said.

Believe me, we live in a world that is regulated by the laws and regulations that apply in each of our countries. However, the fact is that not everyone will comply. especially, those related to something pleasant. something that is enjoyable for someone, it is difficult to stop immediately. for example, children are now very familiar with the types of games on their gadgets. Almost all urban children must have played a game of any kind.

Well, now we're talking about gambling. Gambling is a type of instant entertainment that contains risks. gambling, offering simple, easy and fun games. now, gambling has become legal in several countries even though there are certain regulations that differentiate it. and IMO, gambling education is more effective through a family and persuasive approach.

Gambling is everywhere and we can't ask the younger generation just to avoid it because it's everywhere nowadays. It is better if gambling reminders will be implemented in schools and the government were strict in implementing gambling restrictions. That's the importance of KYC these days so minors can't gamble though we all know that there are also tricky youth who know how to fake KYCs.
It is important that as early as possible, the younger generation would know how to get rid of gambling especially if they couldn't deal with its risk. We should remind them that it isn't for everyone and that a person can only gamble if he or she is financially and emotionally capable of doing it.
