I think it is important to teach kids about gambling much like sex education in school. Help them learn where their boundaries are, whether they have an addictive personality to gambling (e.g. if they gamble then they can’t stop). To talk about gambling one has to be able to talk about the odds and math and the reasoning behind it. I don’t think don’t gamble similar to the avoid sex type of sexual education. On a basic level, gambling is probability. We deal with probability and uncertainty from getting into a car to buying life insurance.
