Health class curricula across the nation cover the typical risks for teens such as smoking, drinking, vaping, etc yet gambling education is nowhere to be found in our schools. "

Did that really change anything? Do you think that teens don't smoke, drink or vape despite all the negative side effects that they are lectured about? They do and that's because if you do something like that, you are considered as one of the coolest person anywhere you go and everyone wants to hang out with you. Actors, singers, some athletes and many influencers promote that culture.

And would you agree with him in implementing gambling prevention education in schools?

That does nothing but if parents take care of their children and become their friends and supporters, teach them and explain what's good and bad and how it will end up if they follow that path, then we will definitely have a very positive outcome out of this. Schools aren't gonna happen in this thing, parents have responsibilities too and there are things that you have to learn in your family and that's ethics, culture, manners and respect.

You just said the teens will do it because they think they'd be cool to their friends. Who do you think they listen the most while they are still teens, their parents or their friends?

Because in some cases teens who do all of those vices change after they get older, some friends get married and work at their father's business, some become successful working in the city. They mature eventually and stop the nonsense. Those who got deeper got worse though. I must depend and who they listen.
