She Just Found Out That Her Husband Secretly Lost $30,000 On Casino Slots And They Can No Longer Afford Their Son’s Medication, So She Slapped Him And Called Him A “Good-For-Nothing Dad”
This 34-year-old woman and her husband, who is 35, first met at a country club and were in “love at first sight.” They’ve now been married for 12 years, and she claims that they’ve always had a wonderful relationship.
However, after one recent incident that burned a massive hole in their bank account, she’s not sure if their marriage will survive.
For context, they are quite wealthy, and her husband typically handles their finances. That’s why she never noticed that their account values were decreasing.
Two years ago, their oldest son– who is 10– also got sick and was placed in the hospital.
“It devastated our family, especially our 8-year-old daughter since they were close,” she recalled.
Since her son, named Luke, got sick, she also noticed that he never seemed to get any better.
Nowadays, Luke can barely stand up and just has to lie in his bedroom all day. Meanwhile, before he got sick, he was as happy as a clam.
So, she tried talking to her husband about their son’s health just yesterday, and she found out the shocking truth. Apparently, her husband admitted that they could no longer afford Luke’s medication.
At that point, she began screaming at her husband and asking where all of their money had gone.

“He looked down in shame and said he accidentally spent it all on slots at the nearby casino with his friends,” she revealed.
All of their money was $30,000, to be exact.
At that moment, she absolutely lost her mind and started seriously yelling at her husband. She called him a “good-for-nothing dad” who was “useless.”
Throughout the entire time, her husband just stood there quietly, too. And honestly, this made her even angrier.
So, she wound up slapping him across the face at the end of her screams. Then, her husband just left their house.
Once he was gone, she started to break down, too.
“My husband was the breadwinner, and I had no idea how I was gonna pay for Luke’s medication,” she vented.
But, later on, she got reamed out by her in-laws. Her husband’s parents called her up and accused her of being a jerk. They also claimed that she completely overreacted about the situation!
So now, she’s been left wondering if screaming at her husband and slapping him for losing $30,000 at the casino was really an overreaction or not.
How would you feel if your partner gambled away so much money at your child’s expense? Do you think her reaction was justified? How would you have handled this situation?
