The possible solution to problem we discuss here is to make kids busy. But not in a way that they work or do something 24/7 and are tired to gamble. They should be busy with other things that they are interested in. Perfect will be sports, but any other activity would do. It is actually easy to make a kid or teenager busy. Parent must be involved into what kids is interested in. Like I've said, speaking and spending time together are the solution. If parents spend all the on the own, because they are busy, tired, dont have time for kids, then to wonder kids get exposed by everything. I know that it is tough to find time for everything, work, rest, kids, family. But that is only solution I see in this case.
In short, a good parenting would prevent a kid from trying gambling out of curiosity or because of peer pressure.
Kids nowadays have the access in every social media because gen z parent's thinks that a gadget would be a great way to make a kid occupied and not get bored, but they're just killing their kids slowly by exposing them to radiation and other adult contents that's not for kids that can be seen online.
Most of the social media influencers here in my country are promoting gambling. So I'm not surprised that even a kid here knows how to play gambling.
Well, I also have the same thoughts as you, I mean it is true that now parents prefer to entrust their children to digital media in the sense of using cellphones or other digital devices as one way to keep a child from being fussy and that is really proven to be effective, and of course this action can indeed be used as a solution so that their children are not fussy and parents can be freer in doing their daily activities, but of course it also has the potential to have a bad impact on a child's future, the reason for which is clear as you said that a child can fall into various things that should be avoided, such as radiation that can have a bad impact on a child's health, adult content and gambling promotional displays on social media which of course can really affect a child's personality and way of thinking.
On the other hand, of course this should be a big concern for parents, simply you have to know about the various potential bad impacts that can occur from any activity carried out by a child, such as realizing that now the internet or social media is full of things that should be kept away from the sight of a child who is in the development stage.
