Hey everyone, it's Bonus Dose Day, and if you've watched literally ANYTHING with ads in the last two or three years, you have been bombarded with ads for sports betting. Which means young people are ALSO seeing those ads. Now, they also see ads for alcohol, but that doesn't mean we go out and buy them Jack Daniels, right? RIGHT?! Well, enjoy this Dose about parents who've decided that peer pressure is actually a good thing.

Sports betting apps, or at least the ads for sports betting apps, are inescapable, and Americans lost nearly $14 billion gambling last year. And what better way to teach your kids about money than by letting them throw it away! A look at several Canadians who let their children download and use sports betting apps, one who likened it to "having a drink at home", and a little Buckley Lore!

Honestly not surprised parents are encouraging gambling they are already trying to groom kids into being streamers and influencers why not wannabe high rollers

The visuals in this one are hilarious 😂 I lost it at the girl on the slots and the baby with the pint

I hate gambling. And the idea of kids doing it is abhorrant. How is it possible the world keeps getting grosser the more technology we have? Dumb question I know but I swear I worry for my grandkids.

As someone who struggled and is still struggling with online gambling since I was 19 they need to get kids far the fuck away from that crooked shit. The amount of times I’ve saved up for months to a decent bit of money just to lose it within a couple hours is ridiculous and it keeps happening. A lot of people don’t have good impulse control and its getting worse as the world continues to go the way it’s going, it’s hard for a lot of people to quit while they’re ahead or cut their losses while gambling. I struggle with it a lot and I’m currently still picking up the pieces from my last ‘gambling’ hiatus, which was actually trading options on the stock market which made me thousands over the last few months but has also lost me almost just as much, I’m sick of losing my money so I’m trying my hardest to be done for good. It’s inevitable kids will get into it nowadays but fuck man, it’s evil.

That's rough. Thanks for sharing that, hope things turn out OK.

You know who else is a "bit of a numbers whiz"? The hundreds of people who set the odds on every one of those betting sites.

Oh I hate gambling. This makes my grandparents sneaking me into the pokies to play slot machines (their idea not mine) look like child's play. About parents supervising drinking alcohol (once agian, their idea not mine. I was first offered wine at 10), yeah, generally one grows to become an alcoholic, especially if they have crap parents.

A Dose of Buckley

Haha yeah but everyone thinks they're smarter or can "beat the system". The system remains relatively undefeated, several thousand year winning streak.
