Itche: I explained why she’s going off (her parents are abusive and she’s emotionally unstable). But it certainly isn’t because of “too many restrictions” or because she “didn’t fit the mold” (she’s probably the brightest kid I ever met). Her parents are hypocrites. They do pretty bad stuff while focusing on “stupid” chumra’s. THAT’S why she’s turned off. But if the kids FEEL you’re sincere and you yourself keep the chumras and you don’t “put up a show” for everyone while doing kol davar assur at home, the kids stay frum. (As most frum parents are since you see most kids stay frum)If only she WOULD get some REAL VALID restrictions.
