We are already in the 21st century when teen are interested in doing things they don't even have idea about. It is good we understand the time that we are in so that we can know how to discipline children on what to do and what not to do. Technology is moving very fast and it is good we strategize on how to talk to children and guide the from going too far doing things that would crumble the future. Gambling cam really have great effects and children and it is good we know how to react to them and talk to them in a way that will not take them far away from us. Gambling is not meant for the little once but it is quite obvious that children are going too far in gambling.
The fast pase of advancement we are experiencing in technology is something we don't have a total control over and this by extension makes it not so easy putting the restrictions that we may need to get our kids from really getting involved with some of these things, it will be even better to get them educated about it and the possible danger it can cause them because trying so hard to stop or restrict them may even result in them been very inquisitive and wanting to know why you are very concerned about it and trying to stop them from getting involved.
Agree, we cannot object to technological reasons, but once technology has made such great strides, education should also rely on technology to make breakthroughs and change new approaches, there are quite a few families with knowledgeable parents, they know the impact of technology and rely on technology to better manage their children, not completely control activities, just to know what their child is doing and what the level of education is. This society needs such civilization, young people are sometimes busier and more educated and also reduce the frequency of gambling activities, that's all.
