Poppa- you say that many times issues are caused by bad parenting. So how do you explain the teens who are off the derech, who come from amazing homes? The sons and daughters of Rabbis in the community, who are not religous, yet whos siblings are the cream of the crop?

I have researched a phenomena called “poorness of fit”. In short, it explais how sometimes the personalities of a parent and their child clash, and leaves the blame out of the equation entirely.
