In the world of betting, people are becoming increasingly younger.<\/h3>\n

Traditionally, the profile of gambling addicts was men between 35 and 50 years old. However, today cases of gambling addiction are multiplying among younger people<\/strong>, from 25 down to 18 years of age. In \u00c1vila, Noelia Jim\u00e9nez, a councillor from the Socialist group, has warned of the need to study the relationship between young people and gambling, as the number of young people in the betting world has increased. <\/p>\n

What is the reason for this decrease in the age of bettors?<\/h4>\n

One of the most evident causes is the emergence of numerous new betting shops, both online and physical. Thanks to the large investment in advertising they make, they are increasingly entering the lives of young people. Furthermore, gambling addiction is not just about the world of betting; video games or online games are also related to the new forms that gambling addiction is taking<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

The growth of video game and online game users skyrockets every year. Consequently, the number of gambling addicts is also growing. The risk of becoming involved in these types of games at an early age is much higher because younger people are also more vulnerable. For this reason, the possibility of developing gambling behaviors increases dramatically<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In short, gambling addiction is a personality disorder that has evolved in recent years, caused by the introduction of new technologies. The same technology that facilitates communication can generate addiction to online gambling, sports betting, or video games. Like all addictive behavior, if gambling addiction is not treated properly and by professionals, it will tend to worsen.<\/strong> Therefore, it is very important to seek support from specialized centers.<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
