The writer says “who are fine yirei shomayim”. Are you saying that if a bocher (the young man is still a “bachur” even if he isn’t in “the best yeshiva”)is the type that doesn’t go to a learning camp or stay in a non-NY yeshiva he isn’t yirei shamayim? That is pretty elistic. No wonder you don’t beleive in SEED. Those out-of-town, non-black hat types can’t POSSIBLY be worth the time of a 17 year old. My son is a staff member in Camp Bei Kayta. He is required to go to as many sheurim and sedarim as any learning camp. He is also earning a little money.
So what’s your problem? Relizing that not every boy is meant to sit and learn all day? Hashem did creat Zevuan and the TYPE of person that a Zevulan needs to be. Or do you have a problem with boys learning that they can earn some money and not just always take from somebody.
