My friends aunty called him on the call while we were conversing today, and she was complaining about how her son has withdrawn #20,000 approximately $15 from her account through mobile transfer to play bet and he lost it all.
She complained bitterly and pitifully because she struggled to safe such amount of money.
Now, the mum is calling on everyone she could to intervene, discipline the child and force him to provide the money in any means he can without the concern of how he could refund the money.
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?
Good question. I think that the aunt is to some extent to blame for the fact that he gained access to her account. You must prevent other people from using your account. In this case it was only $15, although in some countries it can be a larger amount.
On the other hand, it’s good that through such a relatively small amount the whole family found out that he has a gambling problem. After all, he crossed a very significant line - he stole money, this is very bad.
Returning to your question, I will say that even if he won the money, the fact of theft would still have taken place. Secondly, in this case, it may be even better that now he has lost money and his bet did not work out. If he had won, he would probably have had big problems later and would have lost all his winnings.
It can be called a pre-warning for that woman. Because she found out that her son had done such a thing, now she must first try how to keep her wealth more secure. she will change his account PIN and password as soon as possible. Although she is worried about his son's gambling incident, she will be more cautious about how to deal with such situation by bringing it under control. Therefore, as a family manager, mother and father must take care of their children with enough responsibility. There is no alternative to being aware of where her child is doing and with whom she is missing. Many of the gamblers who are addicted steal money from their parents and manage their gambling if a parent does not find out about this at the right time then they will suffer a lot.
