I don’t think gambling breeds the abusive behavior, but I know that it is terrible when someone who has anger issues, or is abusive is also addicted to gambling. Because when they fail, they put it on the person or object next to them. Seen those clips where people game on a PlayStation console and the person losing punches the game display? That’s exact what I mean by terrible.
Is there any effective way to make sure youths stays where the are told to stay instead of looking for quick money? Gambling isn't the solution to poverty it will possibly drown you deep into more poverty.
If the government in question doesn’t try to provide jobs, etc to make youth have a better source of income, then they are prone to continue trying to make quick money. Some of them do it because of laziness, some do it just to be able to afford basic needs. It’s just sadder when they lose they little they had.
