Reply To: Kosher Hangouts

veimloachshuv- i read your post a little while ago but i didnt have time to respond, I was going to write that u are wrong that the main thing isnt that they need t be care for that its emotional probelms mainlt, but the more i thought about it, I realized that they are interconected, most emotional problems are from not being cared about, whether its dysfunctional homes, abuse or just a busy parent. kids nee to feel they are truly care about, andwe can tell when people are fake. my ideal kosher hangout would provide the love and careing and sense of needing that these kds long for and crave. so you are correct

tzippi- i went to an ncsy summer camp 3 years ago, and its purpose was to integrate bais yaakov kids with public school kids wo we could rub off on the public school kids, there were different levels of elarning and it was aimed to be eared for all types of girls, but it didnt quite do that, i think the public school kis influenced me more. when i was 10 or so my brother was some big thing in monsey jr ncsy and he would bring me to a lot of the events and most of those kis were in co-ed more modern day schools. so basically ncsy is a big mix it has public school kids and co-ed day schools, but mainly its focus is with kids who have basically no background in judiasm, its nor emnat fro these kids in question- the ones who grew up frum and are somewhat turned pff and need positive reinforcement, it would be to below us and we would end up being influenced by these kids who are just starting off in the frum world

charlie brown- thanks, um one thing I might need help I dont know if you would want to, but I want to write letters t different rabbeim asking for guidance in this undertaking, so I need a little help composing them cause I dont want it to sound childish or anything. So I dont know if thats your are or what but just a thought.

So I was thinking that also, that the kids who never experimented should not get involved with this crowd, but one thing is some of these kids are dieing inside even though they have never acted out on the exterior and maybe this will prevent them doing anything bad in the future, it would have worked for me. but i dont think the kids who arent involved would come, they wouldnt want to be with that crowd.

I actually never heard of Rabbi Blobstein, I will ask some of the guys and it does sound like he could be helpfull as this falls under his field. I doubt the guys I talk to will know him as most of the guys I know in Monsey are either very frum or not religous anymore and not intrested but I will loook into it, thanks
