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

In other words gambling can destroy a person's life.
I only hope that with threads like this and with discussions about the evils of gambling addiction, it will warn all gamblers, especially novice gamblers, not to visit gambling too often because the habit of visiting gambling can also be addictive.
The story the Op wrote I hope to provide some awareness to other gamblers.

It's not just gambling but almost all of things that you can addicted to that cost a lot of money to maintain is dangerous and one example of it is drugs. Being addicted to something that you can't maintain is dangerous. Depending on your mind condition, you will think of the unimaginable like this grandfather did to his grandchildren. It's crazy to see someone who kidnapped his grandchild just to continue his addiction. I hope no one in this forum really consider this situation just to continue your gambling vices.
