Reply To: OTD kids- and going along with them

DY,

On the other thread, you seemed to show that you feel that a major factor in OTD is hypocrisy. Joining your child in doing something assur in order to get him or her to stop doing d’varim assurim would therefore not be an effective tool.

You’re right! Its complicated. Thats why it’s best to have a really understanding Gadol to advise them. Firstly, a Gadol has seen and heard it all, and secondly, if the outcome isnt exactly as desired, no one beats themselves up.
