Avi K : In today’s day & age it’s very easy to be a frum Jew, there are all types of programs to help you. R’ Moshe was talking about 1950-1970 when there wasn’t the social services that we have today and it wasn’t easy to get job and be shomer shabbos. R’ Yaakov may have known something about the person in question but just to slander everyone that had a child go OTD and say he is a thief or cheat, I think is not right. There are people not in business, in chinuch or learning whose children went OTD. Are you claiming they too are cheaters? I think that the child who comes from a learned family, was under a lot of pressure to succeed in learning (more then his friends) and he rebels. Every action has a reaction resulting in him going completely OTD.
