Because that's the age where they absorb more information because their brains are like sponges that would absorb those information no matter how trivial it is, that's why kids with trauma during their formative years have a hard time when they're growing up especially if that trauma wasn't dealt with, they remember those stuff that you do to them. Your story is a bit cute but I have to call it out as something really fishy like why does this kid already asking about the forum and the gambling community, pretty sure that you're not talking about it all the time that they'd pick it up easily, I'm really not sure if that's a real thing though, or maybe I'm wrong and you've got a genius kid. I don't know how that kid got interested with gambling but I'm going to tell you that you're either failing as a parent because you've likely exposed them to that, no way that it's all innate.
Sometimes he follows me about my activities and working in this community. It's a very simple matter. If you gamble in front of your kids or anything you do in front of kids. These things impact their mind feeling their curiosity. You know in the world, everything will be invented for people's curiosity. I don't know about what he said but I believe ginious. It's my thought. Sorry for the above.
Overall, yes, it's true that children have a fairly high sense of curiosity, where they are always interested in trying things they haven't tried or things that interest them, but in fact, for example, if you gamble in front of them anywhere via your smartphone in an online casino, if for example you don't show any body movements that can attract their attention then I think they won't be curious about what you are doing, unless for example you are gambling by showing expressions that can attract attention as well as increasing the volume of a betting game being played. while you are playing, it is clear that a child will definitely come up to you and ask what you are actually doing.
Another thing is that in my opinion it is also unlikely for a child to immediately conclude that you are "gambling", because usually they don't have much knowledge, especially about gambling, but yes, if we are talking about preventive measures then it is clearly better never to gamble in in front of your children because the possibility of something bad could happen, the fear is that they will try to find a casino site on the internet according to what they see from the games you play.
Kids are smart, way smarter than we give them credit for. They watch us, they learn from us. Its how they make sense of the world. When we gamble around them, even if we try to be sneaky, they see it. And that sends a message, whether we mean to or not. It tells them gambling's normal, okay, just another fun thing grown-ups do.
Now, some say, "They dont get it anyway, whats the harm?" Wrong. Kids are always figuring things out, and normalizing gambling just sets a bad foundation. Its not just about them fiddling with a slot machine - its about the mindset we create. Do we want kids thinking luck and chance are the way to get ahead, rather than hard work?
Protecting kids isnt just about shielding them, its about showing them the right way. We gamble, they might follow along later. Thats on us. Lets be smart, responsible. Adult stuff stays in the adult world, period.
