Joseph:
We know there is a problem with the child abuse issue. That has been demonstrated in accumulated anecdotal data, and there is even more formal data from surveys among mental health professionals. It may not be enough to give reliable statistics of exactly how prevalent it is. I strongly believe the pronouncement by the “activists” that it is dangerous for a Jewish child to attend yeshiva is baseless, and even destructive. No, I don’t get impressed with the media coverage of the incidents that do get reported. So it is important to give the issue its day, because there are system issues at play that must be fixed. If a rebbe bullies my kid, that may be an individual issue for me, but it places the entire class at risk, and needs to be solved at the system level.
You effort to compare the real to the fabrication is not accepted.
