Over two decades ago, approximately?30% of all high?school?students?participated in gambling. This was before everyone of them had a smartphone, and more importantly, before the removal of the federal ban on sports betting in 2018. This digital transformation and the proliferation of sports betting can be credited for the fact that?between 60-80%?of high school students now gamble. This segment of the American population is more vulnerable than any. They don?t have the?frontal lobe development?to make calculated decisions regarding actions that may lead to negative consequences. This is?spurred on by peer pressure. This pressure is occurring not just in on-premises settings (in the schoolyard, etc.) as?recent research?has found that?social media communities?are contributing to adolescent problem gambling behavior. For example, there are online youth groups for Roblox, which is a?video game that incorporates gambling themes.
There is no arguing that casino gaming and sports betting has significant potential to cause serious harm to our nation?s youth. But parents, educators, and concerned citizens alike are wondering ? what exactly are the effects of gambling on students? Let?s review.
In a?recent study?regarding gambling among adolescents, it was found that a below average academic performance was associated with gambling. This is highly concerning given academic pressures already contribute to the mental health challenges of high school students.
Another warning sign of problem gambling among students is a loss of interest in sports and other extracurricular activities. This can impact their ability to get into colleges and universities (and receive scholarships) and can also spill over into the other areas addressed below.
While social pressures may promote gambling behavior in students, habitual participation in the activity can circle back to have a negative effect on social relationships. It is known that?social isolation?is one of the effects of gambling on students. Not being able to maintain friendships will reverberate into their lives as they enter adulthood.
As students become fully immersed in gambling, the same loss of focus regarding interpersonal relationships is also felt at home. Youth disconnect with their siblings, parents, grandparents, and cousins. Compulsive gamblers no longer want to be involved in (or forget to attend) family functions because it takes away from their time casino gaming or sports betting.
Compounding strained relationships with family members, is the tendency to lie to parents/guardians to cover up participation in an activity that is not only harmful, but illegal at their age. Moreover, young gamblers are subverting online gambling gatekeeping regarding age by using their parents credit cards and identifications (without consent) to set-up gambling accounts, which is a form of fraud.
Lying and committing fraud at home quickly escalates into the outside world. Without full frontal lobe development to make better decisions, high school students who struggle with gambling may turn to theft and even extortion from other students to cover losses and fund gambling. This is extremely troubling given that?research shows?strong continuity in criminal offenses from adolescence to adulthood.
Suicidal thoughts? already been increasing?among American youth, and when you add gambling as a threat to their mental health the concern grows even deeper. The?American Psychiatric Association reports?that people with gambling problems are at heightened risk of suicide.
Everything above is closely connected to compromised mental health. However, it?s important to delineate this effect of gambling in students because of?all that it encompasses. Gambling leads to, or cooccurs with, student?anxiety,?depression,?stress, and even?ADHD?along with?eating disorders. This is simply too much to put on the plate of America?s youth.
The aforementioned loss of interest in youth sports and other related activities in addition to limited time with friends and family (which often involve physical activity) also lead to compromised physical health. View more on the?physical consequences of gambling?that can impact students.
Without adequate federal interventions in place, parents and educators alike must learn to lean on external support from experts in the field of gambling disorder treatment. Kindbridge Behavioral Health is America?s preeminent resource for online counseling for problem gambling. Kindbridge has been working with young Americans at a collegiate level, and is responding to demand by expanding into high school environments.
