Reply To: Going off the Derech

ZeesKite-even though finding out about this other kid killed pulled at my heart, I actually don’t wish for him to fall or get punished. I would, however be happy if he would, at some point, apologize to my son for the trauma he caused him. Who knows, maybe that’s the exact medicine my son needs to begin healing. I do hope that the one ‘who was lead astray’, however, will earn his share in Gan Eden….

shmoel-even though the other kid was a ‘kid’ at the time, he was warned by the Menahel to stop making fun of my son. It not only didn’t really stop, but it continued past Bar Mitzvah when he should have had more sense. But like I said to ZeesKite, I’m not looking for retribution…only perhaps teshuva on his part.

a mamin-thanks for the good wishes.
