Gambling is not the problem but rather getting addicted so I think your choice of subject matter should've been "The solution to gambling addiction" cause when one gambles responsibly they'll avoid getting addicted and enjoy the fun of the game, giving solutions to gambling means you're trying to find a remedy to it, but I don't think it's something that can be stopped, it's become part of human nature cause the majority gambles even though some don't do it very often, gambling have been existing for ages that's why i doubt if it could be stopped globally, we should rather advice people concerning gambling addiction, how to avoid it and give possible solutions to those that couldn't avoid addiction, and not gambling itself cause it's come to stay.
I completely agree with you. Ideally, it would be great to come up with some kind of mechanism for identifying people who are prone to addiction before they become addicted. This would make it possible to prevent addiction at an early stage or avoid it altogether. Of course, counseling and rehabilitation centers help a certain percentage of gambling addicts, but in my opinion, this is not enough to significantly reduce the level of gambling addiction. I believe that prevention is better than cure, but people have not been able to come up with anything for this purpose. Lectures and educational programs are not very helpful.
