It sounds like you're talking about real casinos in well regulated jurisdictions. But a big part of the problem is "totally-not-a-casino" casinos which pretend to be something else because most of their clients are children.

Online casinos are, in fact, regulated.

Also why does this "children" thing keep coming up? Casinos don't want children to play their games, they don't even have money to spend!

There are casinos aimed at children but instead of playing for money they play for game skins which can be sold for money.
They might steal the credit card one or two time. And even then the gains are less worth than the hassle from charge backs or possible legal action.
