Overview

Addiction in childhood and in adolescence developes much faster than in later years. Not surprisingly, therefore, data from the literature, which found the incidence of pathological gambling among adolescents and younger adults than in the general population. From the percpective of society as whole is therefore the most important to restrict access to gambling for children and adolescents and regulate gambling advertising in such a way as to operate on this highly vulnerable population.

Key words:
addiction, children, adolescents, craving, gambling.
