The impact of gambling on student is seriously bad, and it has impacted the student negatively in a way that it has affected the academics; poses failures in academic performance,mental health issue,risk of suicide,physical health issue and lost of family togetherness.
So problem gambling can be detrimental to student and it is dangerous for Ernest student because of the negative impact it poses on the students. What is your own opinion on this.

seem the predictable effect when a person who has no source of funds getting into serious gambling issue. there are students who already killed himself after losing his tuition fee.
a grown man also won't last with his gambling issue resorting to stealing and pawning his assets just so he could continue gambling. the worse could happen to a kid who only dependent to his parents.

Gambling are for those who have extra money to spare, so a student who's still in dependant of his parents should not engage his self with such , to avoid using their money meant for relevant stuff to gamble. like their school fees and other related stuff. And just as you said Emmanuel1 it can also cause some mental issues affecting their academic performance, so student should avoid such .
a grown man also won't last with his gambling issue resorting to stealing and pawning his assets just so he could continue gambling. the worse could happen to a kid who only dependent to his parents.
this are merely cause by poor gambling habit , that why they keep on saying one should gamble responsibly and wisely. Though every one wanna hit that jackpot some day but there's no need for rush .

Re: what is the impact of gambling on students?
I think it would be the same with the adult gamblers out there.
I don't think there's any difference on the impact gambling can give to both students and adult ones.
Maybe the difference is that, most of the students have no source of income so they'll spend less money in gambling compare to those adults who most probably has a job. The only problem with this one is the parents of the student that got addicted to gambling will be the one who most likely to suffer. I mean they're spending their time working for the sake of their son/daughter who is a student, and where does their child goes? In a casino gambling using his/her money. As for the impact, I see no difference at all.

It's quite sad if students from the college are addicted to gambling. Actually, that's not surprising, because in this digital era, there are many ways to find and access gambling sites. Moreover, not many online gambling platforms pay attention to their users to use them as members. Because sometimes, on reputable gambling platforms, there should be T&C regarding gambling age limits. But on many platforms, it's not.
For this reason, it is quite sad if you suffer from addiction. because indeed, it will definitely disrupt the quality of the students' focus on studying. They will definitely tend to think about gambling again and again, and hope to get money from this gambling. Even though many people say that it will depend on each student's personality, it cannot be denied that it can have quite a negative effect on the student, especially if they have become addicted.

It is more dangerous to life of the student because it would destroy their future and make them wayward.
Naturally as a student I don't encourage them gambling because it distract so much when they finally becomes addicted gambler, they can't focus to read their books and focused on whatever they goes their for. Just as a gangster whenever they becomes addicted to clubbing it cause another problem in their lives to focused and read could be a thug of war.

Yes, gambling is detrimental to the student's advancement in academics, they should not be allowed to play until they finish their studies.
Gambling is very addictive if the student plays even if he wants to have fun, he will be out of focus on his studies and he will have failing marks, parents should teach their children about the many harms of gambling, there is a time to gamble and it is not when a person is still studying and building his future.

I completely agree that problem gambling can have detrimental impact on students. It is concerning to see how it can affect academic performance mental health physical health and family relationships. It is good for students to be aware of danger of gambling and to get help if they or someone they know is facing with this issue. Education and support are key in preventing negative consequences of problem gambling on students.

I don't agree with you,there is a big difference on students in college and adult.
The impact of problem gambling on student; 1. it reduces their academic performance. There is one of the major difference.

Yes, and I don't think that we can ignore it right now, I mean there are online gambling sites and anyone can get and play. I have my niece at 21 years no experience in gambling whatsoever and yet I was surprised to see her in the room and hearing sounds of slot machine.
She is stop college for a while and started to work, but she is now going back this couple of days to school. So I'm just a bit concern as she might be addicted though. So I will continue to monitor her and see how it goes and tell her parents.

You’ve raised a crucial point about the potential harm gambling can cause, especially for students. It’s true, problem gambling can indeed interfere with academic performance, mental and physical health, and even family relationships. And here educating rather than outright banning can be a more effective approach, especially with teenagers.
Just like with any important life skill, informed decision-making is key. Providing comprehensive information about the risks and responsibilities associated with gambling can empower young adults to make choices that consider potential consequences. They need to understand the seriousness of gambling addiction, how it can start, its impact, and where to seek help if needed. Teaching them about managing finances and recognizing emotional triggers can also build their resilience against the risks associated with gambling.

Gambling must be banned for students as student life is career building time. If the students participate in gambling instead of studying during this career formation, then their life will be difficult instead of career formation and later these students will face difficult situation. Therefore, students should spend all their time on education instead of spending it in other areas. Moreover, gambling can put students in financial crisis as well as emotional crisis, which will have a significant impact on the formation of their academic career. That is why a student should never participate in gambling instead of studying.

If there really are rules like this then the rules are not specific. If you are a student and are 25 years old then you are still a student. This is the reason why gambling places only say 18+ specifically because at that age people can already think what is right. good and bad. If it only says students then children aged 6 years can also enter gambling places. By writing specifically 18+, this is one of the right policies for all existing gambling places because it is shorter and directly understandable for all users.

Gambling conditions state that no one under the age of 18 can participate in gambling unless they are adults. But to build an academic career, it takes more than 25 years for some people, especially those who go for higher education ie PhD, MSc, their student life goes more than 30 years. So in this case rule should be made on the basis of category of students but in case of those who are in primary label and secondary level education then eighteen years must be applicable for this. I think for now strict legal action should be taken if children in primary education or below 10 years participate in gambling or participate in gambling in front of them.

Gambling among students is the most serious because the age at which students focus on education is the most affected if gambling affects them. The future will suffer the most from the little money they will be able to earn because the time to build the future of the students is during the student age. So all parents should be careful about the effects of gambling on their sons/daughters during the student age.

So sad... but how can a student risk his tuition fees for gambling? Gambling is for fun, and I have told many people that they should not gamble with their budget or money they can't afford to loose for that particular period. Gambling is for people who have spare money to have some fun and try their luck.
Gamble wisely.

And in the next few years, we can see the bad side-effects of allowing gambling to be accessible by anyone of age via the many apps on the smartphone. And here in my own country, they are even allowing advertising of those gambling apps in the popular free TV programs...and personally I don't approve of it as gambling should be strictly regulated and the government must not only think of the tax revenue they can generate out of the operation but also the cost of gambling to the society as a whole. Students and young people can be a very vulnerable groups on this situation as there is no need anywhere to go to a real casino because now they can do it on their fingertips.

Banning gambling for all students will be an injustice to other students who are responsible for their gambling. Gambling as we know has both positive and negative connotations and as a gambler, it's either gambling is helping you or destroying you. This is not only peculiar to students. But then, even if such laws are made prohibiting students from gambling, the challenge now will be, how do you identify a student? And what classes of students will be prohibited considering that studentship is of different levels? How would you compel a postgraduate student not to gamble?
In my thinking, there should be a widespread crusade calling on students to prioritize their studies and the government must make sure that students are paid stipends monthly because some of these students gamble to make money to fund their academics.

I agree with your submission. Personally, gambling has been sustaining me for some months now. My target every week is to make only 10,000 Naira. What I do is look for 1.50 odds and then make a stake of 20,000 Naira. This usually gives me 30,000 Naira and so, when I deduct my staking power, I have a profit of 10,000 Naira. I have been on a good run for some weeks.
I will note here that I also don't play every week. Like during the International break, I didn't gamble. Also, some weeks when fixtures appear so tricky I avoid gambling. Part of the reason most gamblers lose is that they want to gamble every day regardless of the fixtures. Others are chasing big wins and big wins come with so much risk. I advise that gamblers should mitigate the risk by reducing the number of games and outcomes they chase.

Gambling is one of the toughest obstacles because it can be extremely addictive, and it can be difficult for students to understand if they have an issues. I believe that schools should do more to educate students about the dangers of gambling problems, as well as provide assistance to students who encounter difficulties with this particular problem, because many students are still unaware of the resources that are available to them. So schools must do a better job of publicizing these programs and ensuring that students know where to get assistance. They must also address kids' usage of social media and online gaming, as these platforms may be problematic in their lives as well.

It's such a pity, but this is what we see everyday when people have the wrong ideas about gambling, and this misconception is common amongst majority of the gamblers. Gambling should never be seen as a way to multiply your money, there are other ways you can sort for solutions when you face a financial problem. I've been in this situation before during my University days, I was out of cash and I had fees to pay but no money to pay them, I had only little money with me, like any gambler would think, I saw an opportunity to multiply the money, so I had to risk the small money with me. It was actually my first time to gamble and I had no experience, but I had a roommate who said he had sure odds (like I knew what that meant at the moment) but he assured me that it was going to be a big win, which motivated me to give it a try. I did and I actually won the game, but it still wasn't enough to pay for the fees as it was only half of the fees, rather than going to risk that one again to gamble with hopes of gaining more, i sort for other means to complete the money and paid for my fees.

A student should not involve in gambling, because they will not understand that they should gamble for fun, rather they are gambling to double their money, which will make them lose focus on their education. They will start stealing to gamble because they are not working, and they can easily because of fear take their lives, they must have used a huge amount of money to gamble that is not theirs. Students will hide their addiction, and their friends might not be able to help them because they still need parental guide in their lives. An adult can come back to his senses, after he ha e realized that he has lost a lot to gamble, and he have not hit it big, and stop gambling. Adults are working and have people around them that can help them out from any ugly situation they got in to due to their gambling activities.

Imho, impact of gambling on students is noticeable, but does not influence so much that some serious actions must be taken. For example how many students there are in general? Millions and millions. And how many of them have serious gambling problems? Maybe a hundred thousand as maximum. I think it is less than 0.1%. I dont think that this is the amount of students that require authorities to take some action. Nor they cant do anything about it. Among those students who gamble, I believe that only a little percent are addicted gamblers, other gamble for fun. I dont know real statistics, but I think that only 1 2 out of 100,000 students is addicted. That is nothing for statistics.

Gambling is very dangerous for any person but more so for students. If a student becomes addicted to gambling while still a student, his life will be ruined. I have seen some students in my area who used to take bad drugs and participate in gambling and those students are today ruining their careers and living very hard lives. Those of their classmates who did not participate in gambling always avoided gambling and shunned vices have now arranged their lives beautifully. So every parent should be careful not to attract this deadly gambling addiction to the students. If parents raise their children carefully and supervise them, students will not be attracted to gambling addiction.
-
I have seen students who are usually addicted to gambling are now known as bad people in the society. As far as possible they have created a situation where they are willing to do any evil to make up for the gambling money. So such a boy child is the biggest threat to the society and the family, because a gambling addict can never bring anything good. So every parent should be careful enough to discipline his son so that your son does not get addicted to gambling.

I have also seen several students who often open gambling sites but fortunately they are not too addicted because in their school there are several events that provide knowledge about the dangers of addiction in exchange places. I am sure they are already equipped with the risks that can occur when frequently visiting gambling places. . It's true that parents may have done their utmost to monitor what their children do every day, but when they are at school and when they are playing with their friends, as parents it will be difficult to monitor what they do out there.

When a student is addicted, his education is affected. He will lose focus on his academics, and can easily become a dropout since he will not be able to pay his school fees. Whenever such a student is given his school fees, his first thought will be to use it for gambling and the parents of the student will come to know when a lot of things have gone wrong already in the student's life.
With the rate of student involvement in gambling, parents should always keep an eye on their children's activities and work rates in school to be able to ascertain their performance. In the case of a drop in performance, parents should find out the cause. If a parent pays a lackadaisical attitude in the progress of the child, it will be too late to make corrections if the child is trapped in addiction.

Gambling is addictive and students who become addicted may have trouble focusing on their studies and may result to drop out of school. It leads to social problems such as conflict with friends and family.
Do you think KYC should be done, as to enable student to refrain from it?

This is actually amazing how things have change during last 10-20 years. When I was a student, I cant say that I was 100% focused on a study, but I barely paid attention to gambling. To gamble I needed spare money, but my mind was busy thinking where to get or earn money in general, because I was sort of in «adults life» and wanted better closed, notebook, mobile, car, own flat and etc. However, I think that current situation with students and gambling is pumped. Problem isnt that big. I think that most students are busy thinking where they would work after university with a large salary.

Gambling can make a student to skip classes. Use the money for school bills to gamble. Risk writing exam for failure to pay exam fees. Miss quizzes because of always being absent from school. Lacks learning and reading materials because of using the money for gambling. Sells phones or laptops to settle debts incurred due to gambling.
The above is the behavior of a student who is addicted to gambling. All these will lead to academic failure and then create psychological problems for the gambler.
-
For me, gambling has a huge impact on students. We can simply identify it as the same as using drugs. Since gambling can lead to addiction, especially for students who are young and wouldn't think of anything aside from its focus on gambling. If they experience winning and turn that gambling activity into addiction, they will most likely go down the wrong path in life. The students will think that earning money is as easy as placing a bet and boom, they got the money. They will do it again and again to make money thinking that it's just an easy thing to do.
Addiction for students can also cause them to do bad things, such things that you wouldn't expect them to be able to do as they are still young. The reason why is because that's the only path they see to move forward even if it is the wrong path. They are being blinded by their goal which is to win in gambling.

Don't be judgemental mate because sometimes you are not in the situation to talk like that.
I use to be a gambler when I was a student but that does not affect my education badly m though my funds is at risk but never that make my grades drops.
maybe we should not try to be judging when you are not into that.

It's true, everyone's level of awareness is different. It is better to work with information and provide useful skills. Any problem is always an opportunity for growth.

It is natural that gambling can bring bad things to anyone if they conduct gambling recklessly. However, since students are only busy with their studies and have no other major work to do, gambling addiction can lead them in a different direction. A student's main task in student life is learning. And if he spends time on the good aspects during this learning, then he can learn the good things, on the other hand, if he focuses on the bad aspects, the impact of evil will be more on him due to which he may suffer in his life.

I think being judgmental is needed because gambling has adverse consequences in lives of the students, if your grades weren't affected while being a gambler, that doesn't mean the students grades also won't be affected if the get involve into gambling.
I think in this matter I agree with DabsPoorVersion because gambling can be very harmful for the students and the ones who can't control their emotions often get failed as students when they get involved in gambling activities.

The important word here is can. Gambling also cant be the reason to skip classes. University students are different from school students. They have more freedom. Judging situation by what students were doing when I was in university, gambling is only one among many things that interfere students from study. As students often have deadlines when they need to pass test or do "work", they can plan their time whenever they want. By banning gambling or other things, this means basically closing students in room with books and force them study. This will never be a solution. Students are very creative. Remove gambling from them, and they will find plenty of things to do just not to study.

I agree with you that gambling as a student has a bad impact especially if he cannot afford the gambling money himself. And in most cases, those who gamble in the state of students are gambling from their parents' pocket money. But that doesn't mean that students don't earn their own money or gamble with their own money, I did it myself with my own money. I don't believe that because he is a student he can't gamble if he earns himself or uploads his own money and if it doesn't come under S then I don't see anything wrong there. There is room for entertainment if studies are done properly.

Exactly. Being student does mean study-study-study. They have free time also. Many of the students work, at least on a part time job. I suggest others look on gambling from the different angle. Not every student gamble, lose and get into debt. Some of them win. Some of them dont gamble at all. Moreover, remember what were all of you (those who say that students only gamble instead of study) doing when you were students.

The impact of gambling on student is seriously bad, and it has impacted the student negatively in a way that it has affected the academics; poses failures in academic performance,mental health issue,risk of suicide,physical health issue and lost of family togetherness.
The impact of gambling addiction is bad on everyone not just students. There must still be students who are responsible gamblers, so the gamblers who are students and have allowed gambling become a problem to them is because they permitted it.
Exactly. Being student does mean study-study-study. They have free time also. Many of the students work, at least on a part time job. I suggest others look on gambling from the different angle.
Some students are not even running undergraduate programs, there are students who are doing graduate programs, and are already working fulltime and learning parttime. These are adults, but are still students. Some are already doing okay financially, and just gambling for fun as a stress reliever.

You know what, I think I am going to vote for allowing gambling at early ages and for everyone. Gambling is a valuable experience. If a person wins or ends with profit, that is marvelous. If he loses all of his money, that is ok. Better face such difficulties while being young, ambitious and have whole life ahead. Better get strong, face life difficulties and solve them. As many students nowadays are soft and not ready for adults life, live with parents till 30ties. If they dont learn how to cope with difficulties in life, they will never be ready for independent life.

Exactly. Being student does mean study-study-study. They have free time also. Many of the students work, at least on a part time job. I suggest others look on gambling from the different angle. Not every student gamble, lose and get into debt. Some of them win. Some of them dont gamble at all. Moreover, remember what were all of you (those who say that students only gamble instead of study) doing when you were students. You guys turn probability of getting into trouble due to gambling into 100 % chance to happen.
I also said that students can also gamble because there is no way that a student will not have entertainment in his life. And of course the student cannot be under eight. However, you must not get addicted to gambling, and you must have knowledge of money management. Because gambling addiction is very dangerous, I am telling from my own experience, when I was doing my diploma, one of my classmates was very addicted to gambling and he used to gamble by lying to his parents to get money in the name of college tuition fee, and last time After he gambled away his college fees and lost, he again borrowed the money from another person gamble also that fund and later lost that amount as well. Then he attempted suicide due to debt tension. As a result, we lost a friend at this young age and his parents lost their child.

Gambling has literally negative impacts on students. Most students rely to their parents for allowances and tuition fees unless you are a working student. But no matter what the situation is, it still divide the focus and attention of the student and that is when he or she became distracted and will begun to lost interest in the school activities which will affect the grades and one thing is mood swings especially when losing on it.

Yes, when a student becomes addicted to gambling, he can no longer prolong his academic life. His attention will be wasted. He can also be greedy for some reason. His intelligence and human strength may be lost. He can get out of living a normal life. As a result he will lose the position he deserves everywhere. A learner during the period of his education, if he is attracted to gambling, he will lack in learning manners which will never do him any good. Every person has a certain age at which they should do the work they are fit to do.

I use to be a gambler when I was a student but that does not affect my education badly m though my funds is at risk but never that make my grades drops.
I think being judgmental is needed because gambling has adverse consequences in lives of the students, if your grades weren't affected while being a gambler, that doesn't mean the students grades also won't be affected if the get involve into gambling.
I think in this matter I agree with DabsPoorVersion because gambling can be very harmful for the students and the ones who can't control their emotions often get failed as students when they get involved in gambling activities.
Quick to judge gambling might not be the best approach. It's similar to other habits - not great in excess but okay in moderation. Instead of condemning it and potentially making young people feel targeted, we should teach them about it. Let's show both the risks and responsible ways to handle gambling. Educating them empowers them to make their own informed decisions and deal with the consequences responsibly

Gambling isn't for students because they are under the minimum age to play gambling. Students also still have no mature mindset, so it is very risky for them to play gambling. If unmatured people play gambling, they are probably to end up with addiction. Gambling is only for matured people who understand how to deal with the risks in gambling and have self-control. Only matured people who have good self-control and know how to limit the risks in gambling.

Logically it's like that, but so far there are many around me who open gambling sites and they are people who are still students. Ironically, they do this with their pocket money which they deliberately don't use but only spend on gambling. You are lucky if you find an adult who is able to control themselves so that they are not influenced by gambling sites.

Well, they are willing to save and not buy something and choose to save, the problem is that they actually use their savings for gambling, this ultimately becomes a problem.
If it were like that, their parents would never know about their children's activities, because they don't ask their parents for money, but instead set aside their daily pocket money. Of course this has a negative impact on those who are still at student age, because it will affect their brains and maybe even in lessons they will find it more difficult to understand because their brains have been diverted to gambling.

we don't know the beginning of pocket money, there will definitely be many reasons to ask parents to have more money, so they can still gamble later,
It's true that someone should be able to provide an explanation about the dangers if they are addicted to gambling

If a gambler gets addicted to gambling during his student life, it will definitely have a very bad effect on his studies. That time is the time to give full attention to studies, if the gambler thinks about gambling while giving full attention to studies and if he loses money by gambling then he will only think about those things except his studies. When a gambler thinks about those things, he will unknowingly fall behind in his education, I think that is definitely a very bad thing for a student. Everything has its time, if a student is in varsity life he can gamble if he wants but when he is in college or secondary level it is better not to get addicted to gambling.

The impact of gambling on student is seriously bad, and it has impacted the student negatively in a way that it has affected the academics; poses failures in academic performance,mental health issue,risk of suicide,physical health issue and lost of family togetherness.
So problem gambling can be detrimental to student and it is dangerous for Ernest student because of the negative impact it poses on the students. What is your own opinion on this.
A student should be studying not gambling and if he does gamble then his student life is over as this will be ruin by gambling if he/she can't cope up with it, i mean gambling needs money and as a student where would he will get the capital for gambling, this would result in committing a crime though not for everyone but to most of the student who does gambling.

exactly, student should focus on their studies not gambling. Because it would totally affect their academic performance bigtime, for instance a student is gambling and he or she endup losing . His mood would be bad and such student won't be able to think straight again because all his thought would be how to get back what he as loss. Which surely lead to that individual lacking concentration in his studies.

I don't know what instance they are referring to when one studies, because I went to a casino for the first time when I was in college, and although I wanted to listen every day, I knew that I couldn't do such a thing, so what I do is that Every time I went to a casino with friends, I enjoyed everything I could, but I never neglected my studies, now for those who are minors, I think they should not even enter a casino because every casino needs them to be of legal age. age and not teenagers or children, but I think that from my experience none of us who were studying neglected ourselves because our studies were something else, there was nothing that distracted us, so based on these things is what I can say, or so Maybe we were a different type of student, maybe a little more relaxed, because we also played soccer, went out to parties, etc.

The effect is not only narrowed to students, because I believe there are lots of people who are gambling addict that are all adults, for me I think if anyone lacks the ability to control their urge and also if they lack the funds too and also struggle to fund their gambling session then it's definitely going to be a problem for him to cope because after he or she must have lost his money and have no good access to funds he will definitely device to other means be it student or an adult who is not working.

Financial instability is the reason why many students gamble. If you have the opportunity to visit the hostel, you will found out that almost guys in the hostel gamble a lot and when you check you will see that they are all looking for a way to make money for feeding, money to print handout and assignment, money for projects and other school activities.
The painful part of this gambling behavior by students is that many of them don't make much and many lost a lot of money because they don't have much time to analyze, there is school stress, they just waste money the should have manage in the school and face their studies.

Students who long for a brighter future shouldn't partake in gambling because of the implications it can lead them to, which will affect their future ambition and financial growth.
A student who gambles what does he or her actually want from gambling? To be rich before they graduate from school or what?
The wrong mindset of gambling ''to be rich from it", has caused a lot of damage to our society which makes it all seem like both the young and the old want to be rich without knowing the implications that come around gambling when one take it as a way to make quick money for themselves.

I would absolutely agree with you. Student life is the most important time to build your career. One must give full attention to one's education at this most important time of building one's career. At this time, if a student gives full attention to gambling or any other aspect without giving full attention to studies, it will definitely have a bad effect on his student life. After giving full attention to studies in student life when a student completes graduation and after completing graduation when he enters a good job then he can indulge in gambling if he wants it will not affect his future badly.

That's right, whether they are students or not, it will certainly have an impact on them because they don't have sufficient finances to be able to fulfill what they want to do in gambling. Gambling is only good for those who already have financial advantages and do not use gambling to seek profits that cannot be obtained, but simply for entertainment to relieve fatigue from work activities.
But if he doesn't have adequate finances, then he will destroy his own life by being addicted to gambling, so he can find ways to do whatever he can to gamble. Not a few might pawn their wealth to gamble and that is a bad impact.

The role of the parents and old people are important for this case. If there are old people know it, they should tell about it to their parents. So, the parents can give the students some lessons and will limit the pocket money for the students. If it is needed, the students can get some punishments from the parents. If the parents don't want to do it, the students will never consider to stop gambling. They will continue it until they become addicts.

Yes indeed, if we know that a student is gambling, then the first step we have to do is to advise them, but if we can't then we can tell their teacher if they are close to their school, we don't have to give their name, but we can give them input. teachers to discuss gambling or the negative side of gambling if they are still students.
If we cannot do both, we can inform the family about their activities. Maybe this is risky because maybe the students will hate us, but that doesn't matter as long as we do it for their good.

Study is main target for a student. But when a student engage with gambling. I think gambling is very bad for students. Because gambling is one kinds of addiction some times. When a student fall in this addition then his study will be suffer.
So my strong advice for student to avoid gambling. Because it will stand in the way of achieving his goals.

In my view, students do not deserve to be allowed to gamble and there should be government regulations on this matter. I really agree, that gambling is the same as using illegal drugs, it can make gamblers addicted.
Of course, it is very dangerous for students because their learning activities will be consumed by their addiction.
There must be very strict supervision from the school or parents themselves so that their children are not trapped in gambling.
Gambling should only be done by those who are financially established and are not seeking profit from gambling but only as a form of entertainment.

I hold a different perspective. I believe that rather than imposing strict government regulations specifically targeting students, we should focus on educating them about responsible gambling behaviors. While the addictive nature of gambling is a concern, treating it similarly to illegal drug use looks a bit overextension.
Many adults including students who are of legal age, can engage in gambling responsibly as a form of entertainment without it interfering with their academic and personal growth. So providing educational programs and support systems could empower students to make informed decisions. If we act on this way its promotes responsibility without compromising personal freedoms.

Students should avoid gambling. It will definitely impact their studies. They wouldn't be able to concentrate on their studies if they are addicted to gambling. When people start gambling they generally get addicted to it and it affects his family and professional life. To become a good citizen of the country students must not indulge in gambling. It will be good for them and for country as well.

Yeah gambling can actually have a disastrous impact on a student's life, both academically and socially.
When a person becomes too used to gambling and suddenly develops the inability to control their emotions when gambling, then addiction sets it, and gambling addiction comes with a lot of things, from financial problems to mental health problems and then social problems and so many more, and if a student (regardless the age or level of education) starts to develop these symptoms, then it will definitely become veey harmful for them because they won't be mentally balanced to be able to do on the academic activities.

This happens only in some parallel universe. Among millions of students how many are really gambling addicted? Several thousands? That is nothing in matter of statistics. Students are busy doing all kind of stuff, and I doubt that many focus so much on gambling, that it has a significant impact on their study and grades. As you make an imaginary chain of what can happen in future gambling>addicted gambling>bad grades>expelled>low paid work>no future>health problem, then there is no use to go out from the house at at all because, for example, you can get hit by car, robbed, object can fall on the head and etc.
Leave students alone. That is their first experience of grown-up life. Let them have their own experience, bad and good. Let them do their own mistakes and solve them. Otherwise we will have army of «mama’s boys» .

Well, I was a university student when I started gambling, the truth is it was very Exciting, yes it can be like an addiction, but you have to know how to treat things, when they are underage students things change, now they can't. It is taken the Same because the game is always a great temptation , minors are something else, it is something that is not allowed to enter or anything like that, that is something that already escapes the normal parameters, but in another since being a student You can take advantage of everything, of course that's how I see Things, it's much better when you learn to have control, whether you are a student or not, because it is an indication of the type of Professional you will be in the face of any adversity.

Although gambling is a matter of entertainment, there are some negative consequences of gambling by students especially if a student becomes addicted to gambling. Greed for money will keep the student away from acquiring his knowledge. Moreover, if the student becomes addicted due to gambling, then the student must spend a lot of time which will have a big impact on his student life. If a student does not earn himself, he will not get money for gambling. And if he borrows or collects money in any other way then he will be busy to refinance after losing that money which will affect his stability greatly. Of course, gambling should be avoided during student life and if it is not in one's favor, it should be kept in such a way that it does not become addictive.

How you managed not to turn crazy on gambling? I know one of the reasons - as you became an adult (I suppose all university students are 18+), you got official access to lots of things that you werent allowed to do, test or have when you were underaged. I may only predict, but I think you focus on things was spread. What I say that you were not focused on studying and gambling only. Which means gambling industry will have to really try to get you addicted. Am I right ?
