Question: would she be so disheartened and mad as this if the son had won the bet on a multi million price?
Dear fellows, let's assume you are the mom, what would be your state of mind on this context?
I believe we all know the response that the first question will receive but they’re still some parents out there who are going to discipline him despite the fact that he won’t the bet through the stolen money – we have heard of case before where a father asked that his son return the money he won from gambling since it was against his beliefs.
The mother and father of that child need to worry more about what their child is going to turn out to be in the future because for him to have been able to steal his mother money despite being aware that she’s not financially stable and yet squandered it on a bet – it means he will be able to do same thing outside, so there’s a possibility that outside his gambling addiction [which I believe he has] there’s a chance of him turning into a criminal if not properly handled.
If I was in the mom’s position I definitely would have been heartbroken, knowing that my son could do something like that… And I’ll also look for means to make him change even if it means I’ll have to take him to somewhere else to live.
