This is a case of domestic violence, the wife of the man shouldn't take it lightly. If divorce is possible let her ask for divorce before the beast man has her killed before her time.
a man who hits his wife especially because of money is not a man at all and the wife should not expect him to change later on it might just get worse once he is capable of hitting her because of money, who can tell what he can do?
this kind of people have anger issues and can’t control the way they act which is just ridiculous considering they are adults and should have already known better i feel for wives and other family members who have fallen victims to domestic violence because of gambling and money issues
And the sad part of it is that such men might find it very difficult to change/amend their ways. This kind of gamblers are very difficult to counsel, because there are so obsessed with gambling and money. Just imagine a home, where the father is addicted to gambling, and threats the wife badly for one reason or the other. Such situations are practically why the society tends to have so many unhealthy children. Unhealthy, not just physically, but mentally and morally.
At the end of the day, the man who is fond of beating his wife, ends up making some drastic decisions, that sometimes sends the children to the street, which automatically increase crime rate in a country.
