should i let my 15 year old son in yeshiva get dressed or he is too old
You are never to old to be dressed or to young it gets cold outside.
Don’t you think if he’s 15 years old he can decide for himself?
any person can dress up. my grandfather dressed up at 87.
{Why ask } Have ur son dress up in a giant Talmud costume, then I psak it’s allowed.
Let him have a little fun, one is never too old to dress up
Are you kidding me? Let him get dressed up! Im 16 years old and I’m getting dressed up!
are you mad, if you let him dress up it could lead to all sorts of things also dont let him smoke drink or breath, just lock him in a room for purim
Takamamesh, t’s illegal not to get dressed, so it’s not his decision.
It’s hard to answer without knowing where your son goes to Yeshiva.
15 year olds hate being different. Is he your oldest? If you really have no idea what’s done in his yeshiva, ask some of your friends whose boys have been through Purim there. Unless he runs the risk of being the only one (nebbach) with or without a costume, let him do whatever he wants. If he’s a normal 15 year old, he will IY”H provide you with many opportunities to go to war and forbid him to do this that and the other in the next few years. Save your battles for something more critical.
what happened last year at 14, did he ask you if he can get dressed up? Did you help him make a costume?
If yes to any of the above, I think it is time to loosen (not cut) the cord
Buckle his shoes. Let him choose his own wine.
I’m over 40 and still dress up, chill guys, do what’s accepted in his environment
