Who's educating the parents on what's going on in the games? The casinos? The slot machines? The sports betting apps?
Where do the average learn about these things?
All well and good if you are fairly well educated and know about some of the psychology going on. But damn I do not have any hope for the next generation raised on tick tocks as the GOP dismantle public education.
It's going to quickly get like Idiocracy in here all the while bystanders will say, but the parents working two minimum wage jobs to put food on the table and a roof over their head should have taken responsibility for their child!
People fall through the cracks and we all as society benefit when we are responsible enough to try to make sure the cracks can't just swallow you whole.
Shit, I've got 3 university degrees and top certifications for my specify IT field and wouldn't know much about this topic if it weren't for Sout Park Freemium Isn't Free.
We can't depend on being educated or involved with children to protect them from 24/7 365 always online dopamine addiction to compulsion loops.
