It’s fun to blame whatever hashkafa we already don’t like, but I think it fails us when trying to understand the root causes.

Hit the nail on the head.

Examples in this thread of anti-Torah bias:

Blaming the community approach in a community which doesn’t have a higher prevalence

The ludicrous assumption that the troubled kids who haven’t connected with Torah would have connected with secular studies

The lack of recognition that there are definitely programs inside and outside of Lakewood which deal with boys who haven’t connected with Torah
