Reply To: Should I Allow My Kids To Miss Yeshiva?

Thanks for all the advice. Against overwhelming odds to the contrary, I am leaning towards Daas’s view. They are boys and it involves bittul torah. I can’t imagine that the school would allow them to take off. At best, they would turn a blind eye. And I certainly would not allow my kids to lie about where they were. I can make it a point to spend quality time together-a fun outing, batting practice or something-after school, and bring them to a bonfire on motzei shabbos. I think the main thing that they will remember is that I gave them quality time and undivided attention, which I plan on doing.
