This topic is something we can't get off easily without a debate. I have read a lot of comments and your opinions, everyone giving their own reason as to why they will do what they will do, and the majority are going with the option of trying to get the money out first since it's their kids money we are talking about here. Which we also need to look at some other things while making a decision, since it's already an event that has happened; you can't stop it, but the decision which you as the parent take afterwards will play a very major role in the type of parent you can be addressed as.

If you also support your child by providing your identity for verification, it could also be seen as identity theft, as it's clear you show support for that. On the other hand, again, if you don't do it, your child loses the money, which is also somehow unfair since the casino has been taking it from the child through his losses.

The decision we are going to make if we find ourselves in such a situation is never going to be easy to decide until that very moment; everyone will give reasons to justify their decision, and it's understandable only to them and not to the law.
