Some of the things that makes children grow up with wrong knowledge is because their parents kept away information that they needed to know while growing up because they are afraid that if this children have an idea about what they kept away from them that they may start doing those things without their parents awareness but the best way to make a child stay away from a bad habit is to teach the child the basic necessity they need to know and the consequences that surrounds it If the choose to get involved because when you do that as a parent, you have already given the child the knowledge of the dangers involved so even if they are introduced to those things by others outside it will be difficult for them to take part in it.
Not letting our children know that we are gamblers doesn't mean we should keep them away from knowing about the repercussions if they choose to gamble.

I basically think like this as well, there is a difference between teaching a kid how to gamble, a very irresponsible thing to do, and teaching them how gambling works and why it is not a good idea for them to participate in it, this way in the case one of their peers tried to introduce them to that world, they will be prepared to take a responsible choice and stay away from it, unlike what happens to those that are kept ignorant about the dangers of gambling at such an early age and decide to try it because the rest of their friends are willing to do it.

Such kind of an approach will help those young minds not to deal with gambling if they are aware on what danger or risk that they'll going to encounter, like what you just said, two different approach and there's a big difference especially when a kid being taught the right things that they need to understand, it's simple as you are preventing them and you are giving them that idea if they push their ways and let them enter they will just messing up with their lives.

It's something that needed to taking care correctly, as there are many adult person who are not caring about the after effects of what the kids are seeing from them.

It's pretty normal for children if they also do what they see in their parents, that's the nature of children so as a parent, we should adjust ourselves and limit the things we do once they are in front of us because they don't know the things that shouldn't be imitated because parents will serve as role models for children until they grow up. if they see what you and your spouse are doing, they can imitate it while they are young, not unless you explain every detail of what should not be imitated by children from what they see in their parents.

Children are good imitators so what they see from our bad habits, for example gambling, will of course be easily remembered by their brains to continue to remember it and force them to try doing it in the future, usually they will often feel curious if they have never tried doing it or received an explanation about gambling. What is meant, especially since the sophistication of technology is currently quite developed, they can know what his father is playing on his computer monitor, of course that will be the beginning of disaster for him.

The point is that as a parent or father, don't ever try to show your bad habit of gambling in front of your children. After all, there is still time to gamble when they are asleep. Like what I do, I only gamble at night when they are asleep. Don't force yourself to gamble too much in front of your children. Even though there is a very profitable gambling betting opportunity, don't be too enthusiastic, stay relaxed, arrange the time so they don't see it, don't let us explain what they should, don't ask about it, especially about the gambling that we play too often in front of them.

Yeah right, they can easily immitate something and they can find the reason why they want to do things when they see someone who's doing it in front of them, curiosities is something that you need to consider when taking actions in front of your kids, and gambling is not exempted as they can simply use the internet to search for it and learn how things works.
