the birth of a child's character from the education of parents who are required to educate so that the child's future is good. but the child's character is very clever at hiding if they already know the outside world, because in the outside world they can choose the comfort they like. the child's individual can change instantly, if teenagers play with gamblers they can get involved because of curiosity. but at home they seem to know nothing
Yes you are right but the time they need to choose between what you as a parent thought them and what they learned from others is when this have reached the age of 18. But while they are below that age, they need to obey the rules given to them by their parents. However, it's true that we can no longer hide gamble from children because if the way their are now, everyday more advertises in social media about casino and when a child is beginning to see some of these things, his attention will be divided from what you have thought them. This is also the same reason why parents need to lecture their children about hard drugs and gamble, so that they will know the dangers on it.
Basically, yes, I also agree with you that it is now quite difficult to prevent a child from exposure to gambling considering that now is a modern era where most people like accessibility to the internet, most of them, especially young people, prefer to spend most of their free time playing the internet considering that social media makes it easier for people to communicate and also makes it easier for people to solve their problems while it is clear that casinos make social media their biggest place to promote.
I understand that limiting a child's accessibility to the internet can be done, but usually there will be a lot of rejection from a child and even now I see many parents who use the internet as a place to leave their children when they are busy with homework, so maybe what you said is quite true that providing understanding, knowledge about what and how gambling really is might help to prevent a child from misunderstandings related to gambling.
digging up knowledge in the current era is very easy, the era of technology that makes it very easy to find information, most children now have their own gadgets to find information. Parents buy gadgets maybe for communication or other needs, but outside the house they can gamble without their parents' knowledge. because the modern era makes it very easy, only our attitude of monitoring teenagers can still be controlled, that's already grateful
