Woman Abandons 4-year-old Child In Gambling Shop As Collateral After Huge Losses

[Cryptomultiplier]

Firstly, for her to have had the thought of using the child as a stake in a game of probability, means she either regrets having such a child or her mental perception Is distorted. I also take it that the facility wherein the game was played may probably not be a licensed one, hence, such would not have happened.
Secondly, in addition to the said lady being diagnosed with a mental disorder, a psychiatrist should be able to give a clear analysis of the level of gambling addiction she has attained because I believe this is one of the worst-case scenario cases I have read especially coming from the female gender. Her case file can be used for research purpose in order to aid other gamblers be aware of red flags that might coerce them into doing silly things, because of an addiction of gambling.

reading the article, what i realized was that the residents of the area said that the woman abandoned her son at the lottery store after she had a lot of losses, honestly i don't see how anyone could have a lot of losses in a lottery store and still like the channel Did you come to the conclusion that she gave the boy as collateral? What would the lottery shop win by taking the boy as collateral? this doesn't make any sense, because people took the boy to the police so easily the police could go to the lottery shop and see if it was true that the mother gave the child as collateral, but all I read in the article was that the police were still investigating and couldn't get useful information from the boy because he doesn't speak well, so I think you can't judge the mother without knowing what really happened and the news channel is accusing the mother without proof, that's slander and defamation, something that in every corner of the world is a crime

^ You perfectly arise good questions here, the first thing that I think is why the lottery casino owner agreed that the collateral is a boy, the son of an addicted woman to gambling which is they probably take the advantage of this woman. This is very irresponsible parenting if this is true or the mother has a mental disorder because no one parent will be put in danger of their child. However, we cannot give enough conclusions to judge the gambling addict's mother, there could be other reasons why that has happened. A lesson to learn from all of us here, we should always put a limit in gambling, never gamble too much and always fight back if we feel eagerness in gambling which usually turn into an addiction.

[passwordnow]

so I think you can't judge the mother without knowing what really happened and the news channel is accusing the mother without proof, that's slander and defamation, something that in every corner of the world is a crime

If it's a true story, very irresponsible gambler and parent.
I've seen other consequences that other gamblers did when they can no longer afford to pay what they're up to due to gambling but this is out of this world. The humanity of this parent has been gone for her own child.
But again, only if it's true but if there's another side of the story but why would the woman leave her child there at 4 years of age there alone? There could really be some odd reason for that.

People who are addicted to gambling have done crazy things as a result of their addiction. Nonetheless, I never imagined reading a story as unbelievable as this. It is the story of a woman who abandons her 4-year-old child after using him as collateral and sustaining huge losses. Firstly, I am shocked because it is the male gender who have been known to go to any lengths to satisfy their gambling addiction.  In addition, I wonder what would have moved the woman in this case to do this kind of thing. My assessment is that this is simply a case of irresponsible parenting and problem gambling. How do you think about this?

A woman has reportedly abandoned her 4-year-old son in a lottery shop in Enugu after incurring huge losses in gambling. The incident Sahara Reporters gathered happened at Moore House Street, Ogui in the state capital on Thursday. Residents of the area said the woman left her son in the Lotto shop after she incurred a huge loss she couldn’t offset. The little boy was later taken to Ogui police station when the wait for his mother was becoming endless. A police officer who confirmed the incident to SaharaReporters on Friday narrated how a little child was brought to the station by some persons who claimed his mother used him as collateral to play lotto.

Just when you believe that you have seen it all something like this happens, to begin with how did the woman lose more money than what she had on her at the time? Did the casino allowed her to borrow money? Because I really think such practice should be forbidden in order to diminish the instances in which an event like this could happen, second did she not had something else on her to leave as collateral like a smartphone? And even if that was not the case she could have always made a call so an item could be brought to her so she could leave it as collateral at the casino, and finally I really hope the police finds her and she receives some criminal charges as what she did is something that her son will never forget even if he is still a young boy.

[lalabotax]

Reading this news really made me sad. How far has this woman been exposed to gambling addiction so that she dares and wants to leave her child for security? Then, what if he can't pay for it? Will he casually give the child away?

This is why when we gamble, we must be good at controlling ourselves, aware of whatever we have, and be able to manage ourselves, money, and games in these gambling activities.

But if it's already like that woman, I really can't understand it. I think he will dare to do as he pleases even more.

[crzy]

That is insane addiction, how can a gambling shop allows 4 years old to enter the vicinity?
Now because of that addiction, that young child is at risk of losing his mother, such a heartbreaking situation. I hope they can settle this and the family of that mother will help her overcome that addiction and repay the money in time. This is an eye opening situation where we should not allow ourselves to be on this situation.

[Baofeng]

We just really don't know what extend a addict can do just to continue with their gambling. And so I'm not surprised by this story, I have heard this many times from drug addicts. And so they are the same as far as their mentality goes, their judges is really clouded and they doesn't care if they include the lives of a child. Hopefully the women will be jailed for this for child abandonment. And for the child, this is a trauma that he might have to carry for the rest of his life.

It was 4:48 in the morning, the temperature had dropped into the mid-40s, and security officers decided they needed to break into the truck.

Police took the cold, hungry, shoeless girl to a hospital for an examination and a bowl of cereal. Casino security officers set out to find her mother.

Guerra Perez was playing a slot machine, the officers reported.

Handcuffed and charged with neglect on that morning in November 2015, the 22-year-old became another in a string of Marylanders accused of abandoning a child while gambling at a casino.

[Yogee]

Treating humans as commodities just like the old days, eh? The casino never really thought that the mother would actually abandon her kid. Who would even do that? That's probably why they accepted the offer and wait for her to return with the money and fetch her child. I don't think it was their intention to treat the kid as payment for whatever amount she owes to the casino.

News like this is very alarming, a mother's love is unconditional and it will protect his children at all costs, in this case, addiction blurred her mind and she is not in his right mind anymore, the government should do an investigation on the status of the woman is she that desperate that she will abandon his 4-year-old Child, I am don't know Nigeria's take on gambling but if they have this many cases then its time to assess if gambling is doing harm to the family or this is just an isolated case, its very unusual for a mother to abandon his kid that age as collateral for gambling.

[Sirait]

I don't know if this woman deserves to be called a mother, indirectly she has killed the child just for the sake of gambling. women when they are addicted to gambling then their madness is not much different from what a man addicted to gambling would do but usually, they will sell themselves for it, the other extreme is like the story above (selling their children). this woman really deserves to rot in jail.

[Rufsilf]

That was a crazy addiction. I condemned such action and unconditional behavior for this is no good anymore. I think the said casino will also help gamblers to set their limitations and discourage debts, not just for their personal benefits. We have the same scenario as well in our country but the baby has been saved because of some concern citizens help it.

And for you also who take a baby as collateral, I don't know what is in your mind.

Gambling addiction don't recognize gender.  Male or female, they are both susceptible to addiciton.  This kind of story isn't the first one to be heard.  This kind of heart breaking incidents always happen even before we are born in this world.  Selling properties, relatives like daughter and sons to slavery just to fulfill the person's desire to gamble happens even in ancient times.

News like this is very alarming, a mother's love is unconditional and it will protect his children at all costs, in this case, addiction blurred her mind and she is not in his right mind anymore, the government should do an investigation on the status of the woman is she that desperate that she will abandon his 4-year-old Child, I am don't know Nigeria's take on gambling but if they have this many cases then its time to assess if gambling is doing harm to the family or this is just an isolated case, its very unusual for a mother to abandon his kid that age as collateral for gambling.

Indeed it is very alarming reason why many government put restrictions on gambling.  In the earlier years, I think this kind of event happens way more frequently.  Lucky in modern times government are able to minimize this kind of activity due to laws that forbid this kind of human traficking.

Gambling addiction is indeed a very scary thing, a person involved in gambling activity must always have a self check in order to determine whether he has the sing of addiction and do the necessary thing before things get out of control

she needs to receive a hard lesson from what she did to his kid. once gambling is out of her system, she will wake up to her senses and for sure regret what she had done. this story is no surprise especially for addicted gamblers. they will make decisions that are extreme to the point of endangering the life of their child. we will be hearing worst case scenarios when it comes to gambling. and that's the reason why gambling has negative connotation in the community, just think about the situation they are willing to take for the sake of their gambling desires.

[bekti3]

This is a pretty crazy act and it's clear that it has to be done at any cost. Giving up children for the sake of gambling clearly makes me personally furious to read this. Gambling has been considered as something negative and with this it will obviously make gamblers even more perceived as negative people. At least if we are not being right but we must still have a conscience.

[EdenHazard]

Holycrapp , that's human trafficking for sure! Why would the casino accept for such collateral lol

Gambling are indeed can be dangerous , especially when you have gone too far ... you can do anything no sense and might be a bit regret on what you have done for being that crazy ... inhuman act. Cruel story.

[nara1892]

This is news that certainly makes everyone feel emotional I feel.
it was a 4 year old child and at such an early age he had to accept inhumane treatment.
There needs to be special action for this because if there is no hopeful action for this woman, it is clear that she will not regret what she has done and this could be something that others can follow if it is not followed up.

[X-ray]

It seems like the tittle was click bait. Im feeling doubt about the tittle. It means like the tittle of thread said woman used child as collateral while he was ignoring his child after a big losses that happened with her. I can understand how she was feeling about that but doing something that makes others disrespect with her was something wrong for her. i meant it could harm her reputation despite getting a good reputation and he has been marked as a bad parent for his child. that's it. She shall not try to play again.
She has been facing huge lose and that's enough for her rather than wasting money until it goes to the zero

[Hydrogen]

While most of the modern world has progressed.

There are still many cultures in the world today who practice indentured servitude, cannibalism, slavery, child sacrifice, stoning or burning people to death and other old world practices.

There is a woman known in the media as the 100 year old virgin. Who never dated or married. Due to every woman in a relationship she saw being a victim of domestic abuse. It wasn't long ago that practices like domestic abuse were normalized in western society.

So while there may be an effort to pin these old world social norms on gambling. It has much more to do with the native culture in place, than it does gambling. In some places of the world, it might still be considered somewhat normal for a person to auction off their sons or daughters to pay debts. Its simply their culture and way of doing things.

With millions of people involved in gambling around the world, things like this or worst than this surely happened and for me this is just a matter of personal upbringing, I mean maybe that woman involved has been doing those weird things in the past that making her child as collateral is not a hard thing to do.

This case might be an eye opener for those people that is not responsible enough on their gambling activities and a reminder for them that if they continue doing this way then they will end up like this but then again we are millions so this might go unnoticed to most of the gamblers.
