Taken from mypaper under the section, MY VIEWS IN 60 SECONDS
THE $10-million Toto Hongbao draw has attracted long queue at many betting outlets.
Many punters take their children along and some of the kids even mill around the betting counters.
Parents should inculcate the right values in their children by not taking them along to place bets.

Come on man, live with it, even if you dont bring these kids to betting station, there are so many in Singapore. Kids are curious, you dont bring them does not mean they wont noe. The most important thing is to TEACH, AVOIDANCE WILL NOT WORK.
true, parents have the job to teach, but if parents were to do dat to " INCULCATE THE RIGHT VALUES", den i think it would be dangerous.
I hv seen kids younger than me smoking, watch illegal DVD sex, gambling and drinking. SO what is a legal gambling den to them. The school already give them spelling on how to spell Casino and when adults strike money, the kids are also happy, cos the parent will treat them to nice foods and goodies.
true.
what i think is, dun hide. Instead, my mum, she emphasize wad the pros and CONS abt betting.
dat should be the way. now i see a lot of pple lost their money and family, even if i do buy toto and 4D, i usually buy at a v minimal amount.
i tot the legal age to go in was 18? or was it just to bet?
yeah i know loads of punks who smoke too......
