torahis1 – you totally made my day! And I thank you
My son will not be going to a yeshiva because the 2 options in my city are not appropriate options for him. Sending him away is NOT an option – he doesn’t want to go away and we don’t really want him to go either.
As with any label, just because one sends a child to a yeshiva, doesn’t mean they are in a safe and loving environment. I must tell you that my son in public school is just where he needs to be.
I do thank you so very much for the chizuk, and yes I (we) do care very much for our sons…
