This thread reminds me of the argument I was having a few days ago.

When we talk about minors not being allowed to gamble, it's a general rule everywhere, not just in some countries, so if a child who is below 18 years has been gambling without the knowledge of the parent and he or she happensto win an amount which requires advanced KYC to be passed, if the child uses his real ID card, it will be noticed that he's not yet of age.

As a parent to the child, can you allow the child to use your details to pass KYC verification, if asked? And if you do that, does it also mean that you are supporting underage gambling?

First of all I can't be staying under the same roof with my child without knowing if he is a gambler or not because I am gambler and I should know some move and signs right. But if it happens that I don't know and then one day my child come to me and told me about something like this I won't yell at him or her but I will freely give him or her my ID card and after that we can now discuss what prompt him to go into gambling. But then again, the gambling site he signed up at must have contain his details and so using another document or ID to do KYC, some site won't allow it.
