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?
It's possible that they will listen to their teachers but this is like introduction than prevention. A lot of things play in my mind but an actual scenario and test or case study will prove if it will.
I worry about the current generation of children not really listening to what their teachers say, in contrast to previous children who really respected their teachers and obeyed school rules, that's why I don't think it guarantees that they can be ready to get education about gambling because it will definitely make them try gambling. and don't understand the dangers because what we know is that differences in time and technology greatly influence a child's character.
So in my opinion, gambling education is actually very inappropriate, let it be the job of parents at home to provide guidance for their children to understand the dangers of gambling and stay away from it because it can cause addiction and harm themselves.
Well said mate. The new generation these days might only perceive it on one ear and then pass it on the other. So I don’t think introducing gambling education will work for them. Instead, it might only lead them to some curiosity and might try gambling even if their ages are not fit for it. So let it be the role of parents to educate their children about gambling because first and foremost, they serve as the role models of their children, and if they are on gambling, their children will probably imitate the same. Although introducing gambling education at school might have a good intention, but the more the children become aware on it, the bigger the chances they will be encouraged to experiment.
