A 14-hour shift in a cotton mill is what today's youth need.Today's brats eh, I grew up on C64s and text adventures, I kinda just wanna clip the collective youth of today round the ears, they have it so good the little oiks.
Even worse is the namby pamby PC guardian angel brigade that believe kids should be protected from, well, everything at the expense of adult liberties. Sick of the 'Think of the children' narrative bandied about when they have no right to use these things anyway.
Take away all their gadgets, cut their pocket money and lock em in a cupboard, problem solved! And yes, namby pamby is an excellent expression.
*By the way, I have no offspring, but my point stands

Looks like both channels mentioned in OP is back now.

Just logged into mine and they are making changes to the partner program Feb 20 2018 for anyone who does not know, No longer will be under the partner program as you need to have 4,000 hours watched in the last 12 month's and 1,000 subscriber's. Than you need to apply and have your account reviewed. Less than 24 hour's from my post in videoslot's thread, The "stuff" is already starting. This does not effect me as I have not posted video's in quite a bit, Wonder what happens to my cent's I made.
Only if those children happen to live in a seaside resort, otherwise kids could only play them a few time a year, when on holiday.
It started for me with flick-cards at junior school; budding merchant types, with a thick wad of cigarette cards, would set up shop by placing a card against the wall in the playground, and offer odds against the punter knocking it down, from a predetermined distance, by flicking a card at it - obviously, the further away, the higher the odds. We would have been like nine or ten years old.Or they can watch TV with poker players chucking in 10k bundles of bills into the pot.
I suggest you read the Gamcare forum and see how many addicts started off as children. Everything's relative - children have limited funds usually from pocket money or housework and the thrill of even small amounts 'for nothing' is the same as for an adult. In fact even worse as they'll have no realistic or mathematical grasp of what gambling really means. Even those 2p pushers can have a serious psychological effect and I saw this myself when taking my lot on holiday and seeing kids hanging round all day, begging and searching for coins under chairs and machines for another go. Don't dismiss this issue just because it is labelled 'amusements'.
I got hooked on gambling aged about 8 when I visited a holiday resort and learned that when I squeezed around the back of one of those two penny push games when you had to get the coin plumb between the rolling lines that the back was off. All I had to do was reach down or even climb in and fill my pockets
Legal and ethical are poles apart
Ethical to what extent though?Legal and ethical are poles apart
Just the type of advertisement plastering on unrelated content, that might catch someone's eye. It's legal but has no place in certain YouTube domains....
