A lot of social media influencers especially vloggers and YouTubers are promoting gambling usually at the end of their vlogs or videos.
I could see a huge contribution and spread of information that they made especially during this time where the majority are using smartphones already. In fact, we've been seeing a massive increase in gamblers and online gambling sites. But how this could affect the mindset of the kids when they are also seeing these ads/promotions from the social media influencers they followed? I could be wrong but this has a mental effect on them and at a very young age, they are exposed to gambling already which is supposedly not the right time.
I think these influencers must know their target audience before accepting the offer or should not be included in their vlogs or videos?
If we do speak about social media contents then it wont really be just that limited on gambling-related things alone but also in other things as well on which it might not really be that proper or just right for young viewers for them to see or look with those things on which it could really be something that could really be affecting them in future actions that they would be making. This is why parenting would really be something important on this regard on which it would really be needing that you would really be telling your kids that they should really be not seeing or tending to follow these kind of contents on which we know that this is something that could really be affecting them in near future.
Now that we are seeing tons of those slot gaming streams online specially on facebook then it is really that most likely that our kids will really be able to see those stuffs.
If you dont mind that much about their possible condition the one day you might be seeing them engaging with gambling without you knowing and we know that this is something that we dont
really like to happen. Be responsible as a parent but of course not all the time we would be able to monitor them. This is why it would really be situational.
