mw13 : In response to your comment as follows : “As a Monsey resident, I can tell you that the neighborhood that has the biggest “bum crisis”, as you put it, has the most BTs. I’m sorry if this theory offends you, but I’m fairly certain it’s real”
Either you’re unknowledgeable or just plain ignorant but the facts are that places like Lakewood has one of the biggest drug and alcohol problem amongnst their bocherim. But Just like other problems its swept under the table. And Lakewood is not a camp of BT’s.
By the way, just out of curiosity, which shetls/cities are you referring which are made up of the BT’s whose kids are at risk or already going off the derech? I am not aware that BT’s congregated together for making statistics such as what you’re coming up with.
