Sad reality that most of the time both parents needs to work to address the needs of their family, to extent that they need to work overtime and with that situation the time that they need to spend for their kids, and like what you mentioned there are many wrong information that the kids can get from the internet,

Such things are sometimes unavoidable because it is indeed a necessity to survive in life and to support the needs of the small family that we have but indeed on the other hand in this case of course we also still have to continue to take the time to at least save our children from the negative effects of the Internet. Even if we can't monitor for 24 hours but in the end there must be one or 2 days off at work where it can be used to create closeness with children and tell them what is good and what is bad. If that can't happen, we can still limit and monitor what our children do when surfing the internet.

The problem of gambling is sometimes very difficult to prevent including for a child but indeed this is still limited because in the end if they are adults and determine what they want with responsibility then it is welcome if they really want to do gambling even though but for children who are still not time to do it then it would be better if they continue to be limited and do not fall into something like this.

When they are already in the right age, the only thing that you can do is provide the guidance that still possible for them to hear, but the control is no longer in your power, unlike when they are still a kid where you can guide and guard them to direct them to the right direction, just like what you mentioned, if you can have that time to continue patronizing them and knowing whatever that they are doing you can avoid them taking the path in their early age, while if they already old enough then it's them who can decide to whatever they wanted to become that's not limited if they are into gambling.

Hey gamblers' community, hope you're all doing great.
I wanted to convey my message here that gambling in front of our kids may put adverse effects on their growing minds and they may also take the wrong path and start gambling (either by asking you personally for funds or by stealing it in order to fulfill their gambling cravings).

I'm sharing this because I saw this issue with my kiddo who was once watching me gamble at a website playing blackjack and she started asking me more about the game. Then one day, she wanted to play it herself and asked me if she can go for it and I said "no, it's not your legal age to go for such games". So, it's better to keep our kiddos away from gambling and let them focus on their studies, else it'd actually ruin everything for the whole family if the kid takes the wrong path.

If a gambler gambles regularly and if he has a family but he is forced to gamble in front of his family, many times these gambling issues have a bad effect on the gambler's family. If gambling is regularly discussed in front of children, they will at some point ask the Guardian what gambling is or how to play it because children are always curious and try to learn new things. If he regularly hears discussions about these matters from the family, a gambling effect will develop in him and the effect is harmful at least for the children. So as much as possible a gambler should conduct their gambling away from children.

That's right, curiosity that will deliver them to gain interest and start following the path, thinking that there's no wrong as they can see it from those adults that doing it in front of them, you can't control that kind of interest so better to become more careful whenever you are doing your gamble, especially if kids are around.
