What is your state on mind if your son stole your money to gamble?

[Ever-young]

Death penalty, no mercy!

But joking aside here, I think that a lot of things must have been going wrong beforehand. I think in a healthy relationship between father and son, it would be quite a rare occasion that a son steals money and then uses it to gamble. Wonder if it is about stealing money from a physical wallet or taking it from a credit card or otherwise, but in the end it doesn't matter.

I'd think that if father and son get along well, what would the issue be to ask the dad for some cash to have fun doing some gambling? It's not the best activity, but if there is trust between the two, I'd rather want my son to ask.

You are right, of course there is something that is not talked about enough so that these children dare to steal the money that their children have, because if they get along with each other as you say, of course they will ask their parents and if that's true according to people For their parents, gambling is not a good thing. Of course, as parents, they can advise their children not to play gambling and advise their children to choose the type of game that is appropriate for their age.

Gambling may seem like a thrilling and enjoyable pastime to a child, but it can actually be highly dangerous. Their parents' messages and those they hear in the media frequently vary significantly. A child may become divided and confused about gambling as a result. To enable kids to understand the dangers of gambling and make an educated choice about whether or not to engage, this needs to be addressed in a clear and thorough manner. It takes a consistent message to keep kids safe from the negative effects of gambling.

It's true, if it's with relatives. and what annoys me is my relative who likes to gamble, she is a woman and is married and also has a child who is only about 9 months old, but she still likes to gamble, and when I get paid occasionally she likes to ask me for money, my heart doesn't want to give it because if it is used for gambling. because in my opinion, if I obey everything she asks, one of which is always giving money when she asks, I'm afraid she will be even bolder in the future, even though she already has a husband, the husband should be the one responsible for his wife's wishes, sometimes I can understand it, but If it often comes to the point where she asks for money to buy milk and her husband also asks me for money to buy cigarettes, that's very annoying for me, because I don't think I have any responsibility for that myself. I'm sure their situation is like that because a lot of their money is used on gambling so they experience economic difficulties.

I agree with you, indeed if someone commits an act of stealing and nothing happens, meaning no one knows that he stole money, there is a possibility that he could become bolder and more reckless to commit a bigger theft. it was so terrible. The impact of addiction is very bad, therefore we must be able to educate and advise the children under us, even though we cannot supervise them all day, we must do our best to prevent major losses.

Then why you would really be trying out to act on that way on which you do really make yourself as if you do have a responsibility with them? Yes i do understand about having that pity
on them but we do know that its not your problem and just let them on on facing up their challenges in life. They wont really be able to realize things until they would really be able to experience those hardship in life because if you do keep on supporting them then they wouldnt really be able to learn those hard things life since they do know that there's someone who would really be
catching them and this is something wont really be that right. Its not your responsibility as i said and there's no point on doing that as a form of help. It turns out that you are the ones
who do have work hard for you to raise them. lol

because in the future I will get married and have children, so what's wrong with me thinking about or dedicating what I have to do to my children in the future, that's why I'm like that, also in my opinion there's no harm, but the fault lies with those who forget themselves when I try to help them. Sometimes I myself feel confused about why I have to have feelings of sympathy and discomfort so that sometimes it makes things difficult for me. but with this I learned a lesson not to overdo it in helping people because I was afraid something similar would happen again and those who were helped would forget themselves. It's true what you said, they have to face the challenges of their lives, and I don't have full responsibility for them. Thank you friend.

Maybe if you help, that's still normal, but if you put responsibility for their lives, that's not normal, especially if they already have their own relationship. but if I were someone who had a lot of money or unlimited money then I wouldn't mind doing that, but unfortunately I still occasionally have difficulties in carrying out my daily life hahaha.
I don't want my child to dare to do bad things like stealing to gamble, and if that happens, maybe I will punish him to deter him and not repeat that bad action again.

Gambling can be a hobby only for people who have responsibility or that means only for responsible gamblers who can limit their approach along with their expectations of winning, but if we are talking about children who are still underage then yes obviously I am not sure that they can be responsible for their decisions and also of course gambling can have a very bad impact on a child if parents do not immediately address this problem, I think it is clear that parents must do everything they can to keep their children out of the gambling zone, one of which is to limit them from their environment and also limit their use of smartphones because as we know that now many online casinos are doing big promotions through social media which can reach anyone including children who are still minors, so the point is that it is the responsibility of parents to keep their children out of the reach of gambling.

The message sent towards kids regarding gambling and any similar activity is very clear, kids should not gamble no matter what as they are not mature enough to decide what it is the best thing for them and their future, and some kids are deciding to ignore this advice on their own and they try to gamble by any means possible, and since as a society we cannot stop kids from doing so, as they can always find a loophole and find a way to gamble, we need to make those kids responsible for their actions, because as a society we are doing everything we can already.

we have to prepare anticipatory steps to overcome this problem and the most important step is to recognize the signs that children have started to get involved in gambling, we have to stop them before they become addicted to gambling and we have to actively guide children about the rules of gambling and the impacts negative effects on mental health and financial loss if you gamble underage and are not yet financially free.

I think if we monitor their activities then it will be easy to stop them from being influenced by gambling before they become addicted to gambling, if we can stop them from being influenced by gambling then we have saved their lives and dreams to focus on education.

It is really necessary for our children who are minors to monitor their activities, not necessarily every move, it's like we should be aware of what they do, what they are interested in and of course the circles of friends they hang out with should we know, let's just do it in a minimal way, don't be super strict because as others say, a child becomes more rebellious if we restrict them too much, we also need to respect their privacy, that's why It would be good if we can build a good relationship between parents and children in them so that they themselves will tell stories or open up topics to their parents about their own lives.

A person must somehow understand that it is impossible to steal money. This is first of all. In addition, he must understand that one cannot play gambling without a system and without risk management. Each transaction must have a volume limit. If this is not the case, a bad future awaits the player. Of course, the child must be punished in some way. However, from the starting post it is not clear how old the child is. Is he already of age or not yet? But it is stupid for parents to sue their child. If the child is underage, then the punishment should be limited entertainment. And if the child is of age, then the punishment can only be limited to communication with such a son.

We must monitor our children carefully if we don't wants to see them playing gambling like the other children because many children already playing gambling without their parents knows. We must knows and aware with their environment so we knows about their friends to monitor easily. We don't have to be super strict to them as they will not follow what we suggests them and yes, they will becomes rebellious if we do like that. We gives them a time to do whatever they wants but we always supervise them so they don't doing something that can makes them in trouble. If we can gets close to them, they will tells whatever they feels to us and shares many things to us so if they have a problem, they will asks us to helps them to solve it.

Gambling is a very bad thing when someone sees their child stealing their money and using it to gamble it is very distressing. and that's why children should always be monitored to see how they spend their time. Smartphones have become a very popular entertainment medium for kids these days. Kids now use smartphones a lot and can get addicted to the way gambling sites promote them. so parents must always track their children's activities. so that children at least do not get addicted to drugs and gambling

The lack of age information makes us think ambiguously in the matter between being old enough or not, maybe we can assume that the person concerned is not old enough, so it is unethical for a father to prosecute his underage child, we only need to give ordinary lessons in a family manner, it is much better in educating a child, but I might take legal action if my child is old enough and commits theft not only once, parents only educate to a certain extent, if a child does not understand the lesson then it needs to be taught by someone else such as being locked up in prison.

Even the kids is already growing we should take the time to monitor them, same with your statement, it's still part of our responsibilities to make sure that they are engaging to the right kind of environment, especially those who accompanying them, people that sorrounds them influence the most, so not just the family but more on their friends who have interactions with them, the types of influence that they bringing to our kids is very important to monitor.

Indeed, if it's already in the right age I'll do the same, better to let them understand the hard way, I mean the consequences so they will learn about their mistakes, but if the kids still young and still have that chance to listen, maybe trying to take disciplinary actions that can help them to stay away from this kind of bad habits will do.

Gambling is not for children, even if adults playing gambling, they must be careful because many bad impacts can happens to them.  If a child stolen money to playing gambling, that child have a problem with his minds and maybe he becomes addicted to gambling. He can search where he can have money and mostly, he will steal other people's money to playing gambling. It needs parents attention to always watch and monitor what their children doing, especially if they are with their friends. Friends influence can be strong and can attract our children doing something that will give them bad impacts. That's why parents now must be careful to guide their child and must gives more attentions to their child.

Every parent will be disappointed if his child makes something illegal, bad or behave inappropriate. If a child steals money for gambling, then this is a huge warning sign for parents. Talking with child about this situations isnt a solution. Specially if parent has not enough respect from the child. It is also important to visit specialist, because stealing money from parents might be not the first act of stealing. Parents a kind of a last person to steal from, as imo stealing starts from friends or someone who are around, in a company, class and so on. From someone who is on the same social level. Imo stealing from parent means that person steals already on a regular basis.

It's all about the upbringing of their parents. Kids can never be persistent to do something if they are raised well and they know their parents have asked them to not go near that thing. However, if kids see their parents doing that thing, they always hear about it from here and there and the parents have never said anything about it whether it's good or bad, in such an environment, a kid would probably think of doing the same thing as their parents are doing or it or have never said no to it.

So it's all about how parents raise their children, whether they have always been teaching them not to gamble or not, whether they have taught them to respect their elders and their decisions or not, and whether the children have been taught to stay polite at all times or not. Parents are to be blamed if children do something wrong when they aren't even mature enough.

Gambling is not seen as a major illegal activity nowadays.  But when a child steals his father's money, it is a greater crime than gambling. and no one can accept this. There are many cases where children steal father's money and become addicted to gambling, drinking alcohol or other drugs.  These things cause a lot of trouble to a father.  For this, the children should not get involved in any bad addiction, in this direction, parents should be careful before and if someone is from any habit of gambling or taking drugs, then before becoming a father, he should give them up or bring them under his own control, in order to protect him as well as his family.

Well to me the mistake has been done already by the son, to my opinion i will advise the mom to let it go and never allow her son to even know the access to her account, he shouldn’t have that opportunity and never you tell your son to find a way to pay the money when you know that it will be difficult for him and he don’t have any way, telling him to replace the money without caring on how he will get it, So the only thing is to take precautions and never give him that chance again. And don’t tell him to replace because you are making him to thief.

This is only a temporary solution, family members should not have the need to hide important things from each other, as you are supposed to trust your family since most of the time they are the only ones you can rely on when things are not going your way on your life, the fact a mom has to hide her money from her son as she fears it could be stolen is a massive warning signal, and if something is not done to help her son, sooner or later her money will be stolen again.

Showing consistent care and attention to our children. Taking preventive measures should always lean on our heads, always imposed strict rules that will keep away our children from our accounts and most importantly, provide for their basic needs and wants because they alone will make them to be desperate to bad company. Stealing is weigh out of the picture and it shouldn't be something to consider in the system.

I think that children should not be subjected to such strict regimes that they become more disobedient. Only it should not be thought that they will not be in danger if they are under strict rule. As the saying goes, if the rope is too tight, the rope will break. So they should be brought up with proper education from childhood so that they can understand themselves well. They should understand that stealing is always a bad thing when they ask for the things they need. Stealing only gambling is a bad deed, but buying and eating something without stealing is also a bad deed.

That is right. Hiding money from son because he might steal again is like fighting in wrong direction. I would say that this is not a solution but an act of adapt to situation. That is wrong.

Imo first step would be to talk about this situation with a kid. If this was the first act of stealing, he would understand that is bad. Second step would be to find out why exactly he wanted that «extra» money for. Was a one-time passion to gamble, addiction or there was something more in that story. Third step would be to load him with work, to work for that money he stole, to earn his own, to understand how hard it is to earn.
