Among young people is a result of the availability of gambling alternatives, such as sports betting and online gambling. Gambling disorders can have long-term effects on a person's ability to complete their education and choose their future, and young individuals may be particularly susceptible to acquiring these illnesses
While gambling brings a health risk most especially for young and less knowledgeable individuals, that is why parental guidance is of high importance so that no more teens will be able to gamble unless they have reached their legal age to access gambling. Otherwise, they will become doomed and will definitely fall on the traps of gambling while leaving their education second priority next to gambling.
Parental guidance is very important to know the activities of their children because now it is easy to do what is done on cellphones including gambling which is done in hiding, so this is difficult to supervise unless they come to land gambling.

I will oppose any teenager still in education he should not gamble before making his own money and is over the age of 18+ which is the average age gambling is legalized in certain countries.
If they are not responsible and wise in gambling then this needs to be avoided.
Parents need to supervise every activity of their children so that they do not do things that are inappropriate for their children, because they cannot yet differentiate between good and bad actions, whether they are worthy of doing them or not, but if they have already committed gambling then We have to teach them that these actions are not appropriate for children to do.

I really agree with you that for those who are still studying or still in their teens, it would be better for them not to gamble, but it would be better if they carry out their education well so that they can get a decent job later and if they have worked, of course they will know that it is difficult to earn money so they can avoid gambling.
