Who has gambling restrictions?

[$crypto$]

Most time I will see student whose  are around the age range of 16 complaining on how they have lose their cash without even having good understanding about gambling. While some will give experience gambler to gamble for them. Where as gambling are for people that are matured with good sources of income. That have other things they are doing not putting all hope in betting. We'll know that betting not something you encourage children to engage with.

When it comes to keeping to the restriction of children on gambling, bookies have always abide by the restriction and they do this by ensuring that underage children are prevented from creating a betting account. When a child declares a false date of birth such a child can be held liable for misrepresentation and there are penalties for misrepresentation because it becomes a fraud. For shops allowing children to gamble, such bet shops should either be closed down or the manager should be arrested because State laws prohibit children from gambling. Sometimes, children appear bigger than their age hence it becomes difficult to even tell if the person is below 18yrs and you don't expect a bet shop manager to inquire about every gambler's age and this is one of the impediments faced by bet shop owners in a bid to restrict children from gambling. Also, asking someone to help you place a bet doesn't mean that you are a child. You can be an adult and even solicit assistance during gambling.

On the other hand, this will be difficult to stop, because access to gambling is now very easy, someone only needs a cellphone to start accessing gambling sites. On the other hand for the bookmakers they will not think too much about it, because even though there is a ban on gambling for them children, they can still access it without anyone's knowledge. And for the bookie himself, anyone who gambles will benefit them.

The role of parents is very necessary here, logically, children who have not worked can get money from where? yes definitely from their own parents, and in this case parents must provide supervision of them. The problem is that today's children are smarter, even though they gamble on their cellphones, they can still hide from their parents.

Gambling is one of the most serious and harmful social problems. Recently it is seen that people of different age are addicted to gambling. Especially in the area where I live, usually school going students below 18 years of age are getting addicted to these harmful drugs. Although at this age they are not engaging in sports and entertainment, they are engaging themselves in serious harmful vices like gambling at this age. It is absolutely necessary to discuss and criticize the question of what class of people gambling should really be restricted to.

It's harmful, especially to underage, the government should protect the youth this is a corruption of minors. if I encounter this I will check our country law's about this abuse and if the establishment is violating their compliancy and terms they should be liable for this, a gambling premises should have a sign that minors are restricted, if there is none, there's a possibility that the establishment is illegal so it should be taken down.
Minors should not engage in gambling if adults see this they have to report this to authorities and the authorities will call their parents
to castigate them, the youth is the hope of the nation if they indulge in gambling the hope of the nation will crumble.

That's true. It's either the establishment is illegal or maybe they just focus on making money rather than doing the right thing and helping the younger generation avoid gambling. The best thing to do on this is to report the establishment and have the authorities deploy people to regularly check not only the said establishment, but all establishments around the area if ever the minors have tried to gamble. This way, they can see that people are monitoring their activities and they might face consequences if they happen to continue gambling even with their minor age.

I don't think there is any specific age limit for gambling. I have heard many stories of people who have taken up gambling as their career after retiring from their jobs to support their children and other expenses. School going students in the area where you live are getting addicted to gambling which is not good news for your area. If a good student gets addicted to gambling, he will lose focus on his studies. If one by two all the students of the area get addicted to gambling like this then in future you will not see any highly educated boys and girls from your area. If you are upset about the matter or if you feel that the children in your area are getting too addicted to gambling then take responsibility of your family to try to get them out of gambling and power. If they get addicted to gambling without focusing on studies at the moment then their career will not be good at all.

This is not correct. Children are limited from gambling. Some laws have considered gambling by a child illegal and in bet shops if it is obvious that you are a child, you will not be allowed to gamble unless you appear older than your age since it is difficult to ask everyone who comes to gamble his age before letting him gamble. This notwithstanding, the law doesn't support a child's gambling.

Gambling creates anarchy in the society. It has many harmful aspects. In the beginning people take it as fun but if they get any kind of profit from it slowly it consumes people and at the end of the day it takes a horrible form. When a gambler gambles regularly it eventually becomes one of the causes of his addiction. It can be seen that families who are in poverty still cannot give up the game and put pressure on the family in various ways to raise money for gambling. But in developed countries it manifests differently. There it is fully legal in certain regions. And since they don't think it's immoral there, it doesn't have much impact on those states.
