Assuming you find yourself in a similar situation as this, what will you do? How will you handle the situation to make your parents trust you again?

Very hard if I'm in this situation, but I would have to man up and tell my parents what had happen and ask for forgiveness and hope that they will pardoned me, which likely I think any parents will do specially if they know that their kids is not like this before. And in term, I will really go away from gambling for good and I will not waste this chances that my parents give me. Not everyday that you will here this kind of situations though and it's really hard to get out of it. And try everything to amend your relationships with your parents and show that you are still deserving of their trust.

If I get myself in the situation like OP has posted, the only thing that is left to do is to work. Pretty simple solution. Tell parents truth, apologies and dedicate next years of life working. There is no other way to solve this situation. When a person lost and owes money it does not mean that his life is over. It definitely going to change and be more complicated, but life continues. Find work, quit gambling, clear mind, focus on the goal (repay money lost) and dont try to search for quick solution. Those next years that are going to be spend in saving and limiting yourself in many things is a punishment.

So, ladies and gents,

Here is a dude who parents trusted well enough to save their money in his bank account, that is, father of this dude (according to the dude) saved all his money on his son's (the dude) bank account, the dude went ahead to start doing sports betting with the money, and like this like this normally turns out most of the time, he eventually lost all the money the father saved with him without the parents knowing.

Later on, the parents found out and became very angry with him, he is thinking of how to handle the situation but doesn't know exactly what to do,
And let's say he somehow manages to replace the money, either by means of borrowing or working menial jobs to raise the money, will his parents ever trust him again to save large sum of money with him?

When it comes to money do not trust anyone, and that includes your wife and children, you can be disciplined enough to withstand any temptation with money but not the people around you, this days even love can be exchange with money.

I know the parents will feel hurt, thinking their own son can never do such thing but I have grown passed this, because I have seen sons doing evil things to their parents, I have seen son taking their parents lives so that he can be in control of all properties.

We are in a evil world and lack of money is the major thing causing these problems, the parent have no choice than to teach their son to be discipline, it is their duty as a parent to stand up and fight this bad habit from their son before it's too late.

If this happens to anyone, just calm yourself and try to understand the fact that the money is lost. Try to figure out the capital/money lost. Bring clarity to yourself which will give you some peace of mind and confidence to pull yourself out of this.

Think about the ways you can earn the money back but this time in a legit way, like doing jobs etc.
Once you figure out everything, go to your parents, tell the truth, apologize, explain & clarify, assure and work.

Often these situations try to teach us something. Learn from it and move forward, not making these mistakes again. Also, tell others about your mistake if you see somebody making the mistake.

P.S.: In every situation you will have two options, either getting affected negatively or searching for something positive to move forward.
Having two options is inevitable.

That's clear makes his parents becomes angry when they knews that their money is lost because of playing gambling. That mistakes is because he used that money to betting without his parents knows. When he lost in gambling and decides to continue playing gambling, he will have a chance to lose more money because his minds can't thinks clear and will thinks about how he can recovers his lose. It will not happens easily because in gambling, the more you play, the more you lose although you still have a chance to gets wins. But that wins will not too big than your lose because casino will not lets you wins big money easily.

His parents will not trust him 100% he already makes a big mistakes. It needs time for his parents to trust him again and he needs to proves that he is already change himself. He must leave gambling forever if he wants his parents trust him again and that will not easy.

I will be honest on how fuck up my current situation and accept all the scolding that I deserve instead of making this as a secret since the parents might be relying on the funds for future use while it’s already gone. At least they have time to get the money in case they have an emergency which the loss money is being allocated.

The only way to regain parents trust on this situation is to find job and pay all the money owed to the parents. I’m on this situation before which I invested my tuition fee on local ponzi scam way back I’m still a student. I become honest to my grandma and help me to pay the tuition fees so that my parents will not scold me.

I missed my grandma so bad now.

Well, earning their trust would be a bigger challenge than doing something about the money lost, in my opinion. As they say, trust, once it's broken, can barely be gathered again. So when you break someone's trust, you will barely be able to regain it again no matter what you do. Money is not that big of a problem because you can arrange it from somewhere if it isn't an extremely large amount.

I think I'm not irresponsible enough to do such a thing, but even if I did, I know I wouldn't have any other choice than to ask for their forgiveness and I'm sure they will forgive me eventually, even if it will be difficult for them at first because it isn't something very good to be done by any child and it isn't easy for parents to forgive such things but since they are parents and they love you unconditionally, they won't have a choice.

Its not easy to regain the trust of your parents because of gambling, because parents do not want us to become addicted to gambling because they know that we can lose everything to gambling.
All you can do know is to how honesty that you will not gamble again and you will work to try to pay the amount you've loss, parents are the most understanding in this world.
If they see that you repented and will do good from now on they will trust you again and speak with you again, its your parents they only want what's good for you.

Trust is trust and whenever the trust is soiled then there is no way to rebuild the trust again because at some point s/he might comprised at later ends because what made him to soiled the trust would always come up again. For me I wouldn't try it to put money in his custody again knowing too well that he doesn't control himself whenever there is fund In his hand. Let's take for example as a reputable member here whom a large sum of money is being entrusted in his hand or her hands and the money went wrong way what do you think could be his effects over here? Tags and flags right would he be trusted again No! Because he would still act the same.

[bitbollo]

in such a situation the only thing to do is take any action to recover the lost money (legal and ethical action obviously)...

first of all he need a recovery plan to understand how much is needed and what amount can be collected.
I would do double work, I would sell my "postcard collection", I would save as much as possible and avoid any waste.
depends on the amount lost, these can be really serious problems... despite this recovery plan it is impossible to reach that specific amount again... Or It requires years and years...

I hope that he will never bets on anything again for life, I think he should also ask for help from addiction help associations or groups.

[Ruttoshi]

The deed has been done, and there is nothing much anyone can do rather than trying to make sure that he wins back his parents trust. First of all, the funds would be paid back to my parent for them to be happy with me, even though they got disappointed in me for messing up with their trust.

Winning back their trust is hard, but I think that one needs to make sure he becomes a change leaf, and show that to them in your actions. Take charge of some responsibilities, and also try to work hard and become successful, so that you give to them instead of using what they kept in your custody.

[ChiBitCTy]

Very un-Dude like man. Not cool. 

I do not see why someone's parents would funnel their money in to their child's account outside of the potential for tax purposes.  I use to work for a law firm where the lawyer would do this with his daughters accounts to take advantage of some tax looop-holes.  Here, this just seems like straight negligence.

I guess sometimes the Dude doesn't abide.

[moneystery]

this is what you will get when you bet money that you shouldn't have bet in the first place. because even though betting is sometimes very smooth and someone can win continuously, at one time they could lose all their money in a losing streak. i'm sure that his parents were very disappointed in him, because his parents must have hoped for the best when they entrusted the money to their child. and i'm sure that his parents' trust in him has changed now compared to before.

[Twentyonepaylots]

If I ever get in a situation like that, then that may be my lowest point in life. Imagine losing the hard-earned money of your parents because of betting and, at the same time, their trust, which is the most important thing that you should be taking care of. For example, even though I get to recover all the money that I've lost, I think it will not be the same anymore since your parents will have second thoughts about you whenever they are trusting you on something (financially or not). Love will still be there for sure because, at the end of the day, a parent's love will overcome their anger, but the trust won't be the same.

But for me, I don't think I will end up in a situation like that. I know my limits, and to be a gambler, we should be responsible financially, gamble what you can afford to lose, and gamble your own money, not anyone's money.

Parents and children, the two of them are a bond that will not be broken forever, the child's mistake is only using money to gamble and the father's mistake is saving money for the child, My understanding is that no one is to blame in this case, if both have to be blamed.
A parent saves money in his child's account, of course he already trusts the child. If he didn't trust him, of course he wouldn't have given the money to save it in the first place, it's just that he made a mistake using the money to bet.

If that happened to me, of course I would advise him well, of course I would still forgive my child's mistakes, but in the future with financial problems of course I won't trust him anymore.
We must not look down on situations like that, we must correct ourselves for the actions we have done in the past, money is not a problem for punishing children.

Very sure with that really, I mean, if I was to put myself in the shoes of the parent, I did rather have someone else entirely not related as a family do such a thing to me, than have my own son do it to me, will be 100x more heart breaking when people we hold dear to us end up disappointing us to such magnitude, than if done by someone we are not completely related to.

I believe that dude must have thought of ways to use the money the father kept in his account to his own advantage, and possibly not knowing what exactly to do with the money to make profit with it, he decided that betting was a good choice, unfortunately, this is something that the outcome is always unpredictable, and the worst part is, the more you keep losing, the more you keep feeling like you will win the next round, this makes the person to keep betting even more and more, and before he or she knows it, the entire money in the person's custody is gone, this is exactly another good example why we should never gamble with funds that is not ours, or money we really can not afford to lose.

Assuming you find yourself in a similar situation as this, what will you do? How will you handle the situation to make your parents trust you again?

I will be ashamed of myself and look for a means to pay back the funds to my parents. For me to be able to make up for my mistakes and win their trust back, I must quit gambling for a while, in order for me to be able to overcome my addiction. This is because it is only an addicted gambler that cannot be entrusted with money, because he will end up using it for gamble since he cannot control his gambling activities and would always want to chase his losses all the time.

If I quit gamble and overcome my addiction, I can look for so many ways so show them that I am now responsible and can be trusted upon with funds, but it would be hard for them to believe you, only if it was very easy for you to make the repayment in a short period of time, when his father noticed the money is no longer in his son's account. If it was very hard to pay back or was not paid back, you have lost their trust in you for life.

Seeing myself in such situations will be like a guilts and shame that will keep lingering till God knows when,but it's a very bad idea to ever take or use money put in your hands for gambling,sport betting or whatsoever needs it may be, probably it's best to even ask of them if they refuse or not you know what next to do but not taking laws into your hands by using all of it.
And I don't think I can forgive myself doing that and i will not earn the trust they have for me again.

Tho there was similar issues of sort but the money didn't go for gambling but I regretted ever trying that cause the results was not fruitful

What would I do? Not be using another person's bank account tl store money for starters. It's an incredibly bad idea to do that and irresponsible for the parent. The son should not have taken the money obviously, but that is a huge and unnecessary temptation for a younger person who will not necessarily understand the risks of gambling. The son will be spending a long time to give back the money, only then can the broke trust start to be rebuilt - it will be a long journey to that point though.

[coolcoinz]

This would be on me 100% so if I lost it I'd do everything I can to earn it back.

I don't know how much that was, but lets assume it's an achievable amount, not millions of dollars. I'd take a loan to put money on the account and I'd lie to my parents, tell them I have it all on the account. I'd be in debt but they'd still trust me and that's what's important here. You don't want to lose their trust and you don't want them to worry, so if you could get only 80% of the money in a loan or 50% tell them you borrowed the rest and will slowly earn it back, while the rest is for them to take right now if they want it.

[serjent05]

Assuming you find yourself in a similar situation as this, what will you do? How will you handle the situation to make your parents trust you again?

If I in the kids situation, I will admit my mistakes, as if there is a way to deny the lost of funds.  I will  not expect for my parents to trust me again but I will deeply apologize to them and would face any consequences and the responsibility and action needed for them to forgive me.

Trust once broken is hard to earn back but parents are forgiving, just give it a time and do whatever he can to appease the anger of his parents.  Be responsible and always be humble whenever our parents scolded us or asked us to do errands.  Since we are in the stage of earning back their trust, we should prove to them that we have changed and show them that we are trying our best to be a better person not in words but through the results of our actions.
