Gambling is very popular words among all of us in this world, regardless of age, race, and gender. All of us know that gambling is something to be eradicated, because it is considered as very bad behaviors, but why all of us are so interested in Gambling. Why the people find it enjoyable and exciting? Human greed and lack of satisfactions are most likely to be the answers/
The fact that we are facing now is bitter. Most of our peers are involved in this dirty game. Of course, most of our parents especially they, who care about us, look gambling as a disgusting game. No wonder if you are looking at its negative consequences, you will know exactly, how evil the gambling is.
Most of the gambling fact are displaying that the gambler has very low self-esteem, because of that, they have very poor quality of relationship, moreover the fact states that young gambler win the most if their gambling in very early time and it has relatively big prizes. That is why most of our peers can not escape from gambling, because they are satisfied by early winning, then it makes them feel that they can win some more. These very destructive repeated behaviors lead to the next level of gambling.
Most of us will think that money is the main factor of this problem, but it is actually not, the research’s result said that the loneliness and depression is this factor. I am very sad to say that our friends are going to the wrong way. They are doing gambling most likely to wipe out their depression and difficulties. They feel as in gambling, their problem is solved. But it is wrong they just use it like opium, to feel the emptiness in their heart. What they are actually needed is caring.
Our friends seem to be desperate by gambling, they think they have no talents and, they just run to gamble. Because he thinks the only way he can win, the only way he can do is gambling. It spoils their mind and talents. They just want to feel the pleasure of winning, because they believe that they will not win in the other field.
Does this cause destructive impacts? Of course it does. Look at the most gambler, they are likely to be the most potential group to commit crime. Moreover for young gambler, it will drag down the school performances; even it will destroy your school life and daily life. Many things have been sacrificed to maintain this evil. What is the point; let us just wipe it out of our lives.
Unfortunately, this behavior has become a part of our cultures. Just in case of some countries like Canada, where the gambling is legal, it is a sad fact that children are accustomed to purchase lottery tickets and play bingo. The country is making an unwise decision to establish this poison of the youth.

Drinking Age

This comment refers to http://www2.potsdam.edu/hansondj/YouthIssues/1131639358.html


Everyone must have heard about it, everyone must have known about it. It is dangerous and obvious, it is ALCOHOL. Alcohol is begun to be established long time ago, and the law only permit the adult people to consume it, they strictly prohibited the underage to consume it. But the fact is the underage drinking is not a big deal in society, the main problem is over-consumption which leads to unhealthy relationship.

The standard of consuming alcohol for some countries is 16 to 18; some countries may have lower standard age for it. But from my view, I am totally disagreeing of the alcohol usage. I infer that the troublesome countries that has alcoholic problem are mostly states that establish the law of drinking

The trend of the alcoholic usage is applied in the family and daily live, the sad things is, most of the parents in the alcohol-legal country give their child, a wine, moreover they gave their children wine, almost after every meals. I think this bad habit was the root of all alcoholic problems. The very young children are accustomed to consume it just like drinking soft drinks. As the result most of the children do not know, the fatal effect of the alcohol. They just accept alcohol as the part of their tradition.

It is unbelievable in Europe that most of the countries are allowing the people to drive while they have been consuming alcohol. Some of the people said that because of this, the European is more capable of motor skill. Do not misperception, alcohol, do not make the people to have better motor skill, in fact the alcohol should be blamed for so many fatal road accident.

Actually, the temptation of using alcohol were lies on the wrong way of education, the alcoholics were only painted as a bad person, Of course, there are some rebellious students, who have perception that drinking alcohol is cool or good. Why should we stay away from that pleasure?

They tend to see that to consume alcohol is great and it is a pride to do it. In order to stop the trends, basically we must teach our children the proper way of using alcohol. We need to reduce and to eradicate the alcohol consumption as evil. It is just like parents that teach the children about sex in very proper manner.

Lastly we need to re-evaluate ourselves to make wise decision about what is allowed and not allowed to be drunk as well as the other decision, not only about this alcoholic issue.

Wise and careful movement will lead to successful future.
