Reply To: Going off the Derech

I think I might have ruined everything. I don’t think I’m going to be able to pass my side of the ‘test’. Friday night, my son was out with his chevra (late), and they were across the street. They were making a spectacle of themselves. It wasn’t my son who was yelling, cursing, and throwing things, but he was with them. I just couldn’t fathom how my son felt like he belonged there. My heart was breaking in two. He came home really late, later than he said. I told him last night that I can’t accept it anymore. He’s destroying me and his father. I told him he can’t do stuff like this right under our noses and expect us not to have any reaction. We each went back and forth with different ‘threats’, and I just don’t know what’s going to happen. He’s not in a good place right now..and neither am I
