New Alert: Nearly Half of 17-Year-Old Boys Have Gambled

A new alert is now live highlighting a critical trend — gambling among teens is more common than many families realize. Read it and share it with someone who needs to see it.

We just published an important new alert: nearly half of 17-year-old boys have gambled. That's not a far-off statistic — that's our sons, our nephews, our students, our neighbors.

This alert breaks down what families need to know about this trend and why early conversations matter. Gambling doesn't always look like a casino. It shows up in sports betting apps, online games, and group chats — places our kids already are.

If you're in recovery yourself, this is a reminder that the patterns we know all too well can start younger than we think. If you're a parent or family member, this is your nudge to start that conversation today.

Head over to the alerts feed to read the full piece and share it with someone in your circle.
