Youth and Online Gambling: A Rising Crisis in Bangladesh

The increasing availability of online gambling platforms has created a silent crisis among Bangladesh’s youth. Studies show that 30% of college students have tried gambling apps, often lured by promises of quick money.

Causes and Consequences:

  1. Peer Pressure: Social media influencers and gaming communities inadvertently promote gambling.
  2. Financial Risk: Young gamblers often fall into debt, straining family relationships.
  3. Addiction Cycle: The dopamine effect makes it hard for users to stop gambling.

Solutions:

Awareness campaigns in schools and colleges, combined with parental controls on digital devices, can help mitigate this issue.
