It’s an amazing thing. We have so many problems,

1) Fathers being banned from graduations

2) Kids not being allowed to socialize with opposite gender

3) Too much contact with opposite gender

4) Kids not being allowed to socialize with same gender

5) No guidance councilors (at least not ones who can keep a secret)

6) Parents and teachers who are too restrictive

7) Parents and teachers who are not restrictive enough

8) No classes in hashkafa

9) No classes in Sefer Hachinuch

10)Everyone expected to become Roshei Yeshivos (girls too?)

11)Being told what to do by the previous dor

12)Being taught wrongly

13)Teachers who misrepresent the obligation of a husband to support his wife as optional

13)Being emotionally suffocated

14)Stuffing kids in a box

15)Adults who are OFF

16)Blameworthy schools

17)Insistence on rule following

18)No fun allowed

19)No questions allowed

20)An unrealistic view of childhood

21)Studying Torah

22)Taking care of babies

and yet, so many of our children are not off the derech.

It’s unexplainable!
