Mahirap magsalita because we don't know what kind of relationship the father has with the son. i do agree that the father is entitled to his hard earned money, maybe use as tissue paper to wipe his butt for all i care. That said:
-- in what universe does it make sense to sell land, etc. to finance a gambling habit, or more likely, a gambling addiction?
-- if the father is willing to piss everything away at the casinos, to the point of losing the business which i assume other family members are relying on...short of telenovela-level dysfunction within the family, i think he better check his priorities. Kahit papano, he brought his kids into this world(who never asked to be born by the way), so he bears some burden of making sure they're taken cared of, even beyond his time on this earth.
-- let's assume for a moment na gago't sakim yung anak...well gee, i wonder who raised him that way?
-- what if the father was spending his hard earned money on drugs? Wala pa ring pakialam mga anak kasi pera nila? Let's not confuse money grabbing with intervention.

mahirap kasi hindi ko pa alam true story.....
pero lets say na addict talaga sa sugal si daddy eh tama lang magintervene si anak..... kasi usually mga anak eh yan na nagtake over sa business.... so imagine the hard work, sleepless nights, worries eh ayaw masayang yung pinagpaguran.....
ang tama dapat may portion lang ng pagsugal si papah....
Malamang may iniwan naman ang tatay para sa sarili niya. Naubos lang sa casino.
True, the father started the business. But the son might helped run the business, who know maybe he even made the company bigger than it was. I agree with badkuk, nobody in his right mind would let someone piss away everything for a gambling addiction.

analyze nyo yun usapan ng SC saka BM, yun SC nag-shift bigla ang thinking, pero nun wala pa sya senior citizen card hindi sya ganyan dati, puro para sa aank. dun pa lang mapapaisip na kayo talaga na may sense ang nangyari nato. kasi ganun mangatwiran yun SC
At the end of the day, this is family and as such who was right and who was wrong will not matter for whatever way you look at it, this is tragic...
malamang dun sa tatay niya din naman natutunan yung pagiging masinop sa pera.
Our valedictorian was quite the gambler. One of the smartest people I know, yet he had little self control when it came to gambling. Before he would even borrow from friends to try to win his losses back.
Heard he got married to a nice girl and managed to put gambling behind him.
Guess as long as a solid support system is in place, people can recover. Family is really important.
