Yes, that is what is very worrying about gambling among young people, I also found such a case in my neighborhood, where the child was addicted to gambling without anyone knowing that he was gambling, and the parents realized it late and regretted not watching their children properly.
This will be a big problem if the parents are not aware of the technology that their children use, unfortunately in my neighborhood there are only a few people who understand using smartphones, many of them do not understand or stutter on technology but their children already know better than their parents, it is quite sad that the child always steals money from his parents to do gambling.
Not everything should be blamed out into those parents or guardians because no one would really be liking for their kids to be gamblers because we do know on what kind or type of risks that involves specially about addiction.We do know that even as a parent then we can't know everything and even if you do strictly have that kind of access to gadgets but as long they do have their phone then theres always that tendency that they will really be having easy access on gambling or simply with yjr exposure because everything could really be seen online.This is why it would be better that you shouldn't really be just that focusing on monitoring their phone or restrictions by rather it would be also best that you should really be that educating them about gambling and it's imposed risks and telling about avoiding it at all cost once they would be able to encounter it.
While I'm pessimistic about professional parental control apps, it appears to be the only practicality blueprint to track the online activities of young people. Adolescents, technically will outshine their parents tech wise and most guardians are not deeply rooted in using such softwares. This creates a strong sense of uncertainty in the effectiveness of relying only on parental control apps, as a solution to the unending desire of young people to boycott gambling restrictions placed on them. Admittedly, without the app, one cannot properly understand the level of a child's indulgence in 18+ activities like gambling. But parents who possess technical information less than their kids should apply strict measures and physically observe what is happening clandestinely in a child's life. For the betterment of the family, parents should carefully implement this supervision.
