I just have a question to all the posters who are decrying the decision of the yeshiva (if indeed the OP statement is accurate). Is it that you think there is nothing wrong with a boy talking to a girl or you think they should have Rachmonus? If parents think there is nothing wrong and there are am sure plenty who do, why not send to a MO school? I heard that there are 2 MO schools, one in NJ and one in Balto., closing for next year. I just have the feeling people like to pretend they are frummer than they really are.
It’s not like everybody is becoming right wing, but everyone on the outside has to pretend they are. Why are you upset if a Yeshiva actually practices what they preach? The yeshiva doesn’t have to accept lower standards. If you want lower standards go to a MO school. If you want to fake about videos, Tzinus and everything else that these yeshivos don’t allow, don’t complain when you get caught. Or don’t be two-faced and send your kids to the MO schools!
