A Shanghai man was sentenced to prison for kidnapping his own granddaughter so he could maintain his gambling addiction with the ransom money...........................

OMG... I never thought there would be news like that, a grandfather kidnaps his grandson to ransom money to play gambling. This is crazy, I didn't expect anyone to have such thoughts.

It turns out that gambling can not only waste money, but can also destroy families. Even this incident was carried out by a grandfather with the age of 65 years?

What was the grandpa's motive, I thought he could ask his son for money, or maybe his family didn't care about that grandpa anymore because he wasted his money playing gambling. He had lost his mind. He should be enjoying old age and playing with his grandchildren, now he has to feel the cold of prison. I think this is a lesson, so that no one loses their minds when gambling. Gambling is a game of stakes, but never put everything on the line for gambling. Don't risk family relationships for the sake of gambling
Such stories still exists in our present day? Gambling has broken families and pushed addicts to take numerous risky measures all in the name of being capable of wager. What would his child think if he saw a mature man take his granddaughter for ransom, not to settle bills or loans, but to gamble? It's ridiculous. Gambling at that age implies that he is a full-time gambler and will face the wrath of the law in prison. I doubt he'll survive the conditions over there; he's old and may never see his granddaughter again because they'd be too frightened to get close to him.
