****”What is the correct way to deal with a child who, unfortunately, does not take the inyan of wearing a hat and jacket seriously.”****
Has anyone ever explained “the inyan” of wearing a hat and jacket during davening?
****”Both during davening and in general”****
Is there an “inyan” to wear a hat and jacket “in general”?
****”There is a fear that this lack of seriousness will lead to worse things down the road, loy oleynu.”****
If this is your concern, not wearing a hat and jacket is the least of your problems with this boy. Does he take tefilla seriously? Does he take YOU seriously?
