True if children follows their parents footsteps the world would been a better place, many thing the children do today the parents never do them, its just our world. The way their train our parents is the different from how our parents train us today. internet has more influence to the children than parents. so its hard to copy your parents life styles. As for me, my parents hate gambling and they banned us from playing it. yet we still play because we have access to the internet and i can play without stepping outside. Parents really has no say on the impact of gambling on children, but they can reduce it by playing advisory role.
just being an advisor is not enough now, my neighbor has a small child who almost every day steals his parents' money just to deposit to play slots which can now be easily accessed, he even often plays sports parlays, for a child his age to become an active gambler is very unreasonable, I blame his parents who don't care about whatever their children do, being busy working is good but being firm with children is also very necessary, the child's performance at school will definitely be affected if he is active as a gambler.
Indeed, that kind of situation still on the side of the parents even how busy they are to provide the needs of their family they need to be their to guide those young minds, especially nowaday that online gambling is easy to access. It's tough for those young adults to balance their schooling and thier participation to gambling some of them may go far to the point that they'll be using the money that supposedly for their studies but instead they use it to gamble, and we know most of the time if not alway but most is they'll going to lose it and waste the opportunities to use it for their education.
That's what's not good when gambling affects a student. Their studies have already been affected, even the tuition fees that their parents worked hard for will be wasted or just go to waste.
So it's just common sense to ask if gambling affects education, of course the big answer is YES.
Where have you seen a student graduate because of his gambling, is there any such testimony from a student who graduated? Isn't there any? because students know that gambling
is good to do while studying and they know the bad effects it has on them.
