Gambling does not negatively affect me or any people that I know, they are fine, since they know how to control themselves. I never blame gambling or any kind of advertisement when a person becomes a gambling addict. It is too shallow to think that way. Remember people have their own brains to decide whether they indulge themselves and be out of control. Gambling platform is just there offering their services, they never push or threaten anyone to play in the platform, do they? Yes they are enticing people but didn't every business do this kind of strategy? Now whether a person will end up in financial ruins is dependent on that person's decision.

About kids, parents are there to guide them and the government is doing whatever it can to give guidelines that can minimize the impact of gambling on minors. If you do not want kids to see these ads, better to shut these kids in the house without any internet or television but isn't it much better to educate them than make them avoid exposure to gambling ads?

Then you guys must be lucky actually because the kind of damages that gambling comes with is not something to joke with because a lot of people have lost everything and if you gain control early then i don't think anything should have an effect on them. And even me I don't think I have a problem with gambling platforms but they are always warning people to gamble responsibly and people think they have a shot against winning everytime they gamble so it is all on who ever thinks they can cross the limit. And it is gree so they are not forcing anyone to gamble so there choice actually but the only thing is that they should do it responsibly.

And I think it is started clearly that an underage are not allowed to gamble and parent to have a role to play in monitoring what ever there child is doing because it will be much more easier for them to know what ever they are doing but some careless parent don't even care which is very wrong they need to keep tabs.
