    btw to expound on what i said to jothar earlier: many gedolim have kids who are nebach mechalel shabbos, does that mean that they give credence to it?!?

    most of what i wanted to say has already been said so for the most part just re: bombmaniac and chofetzchaim (bombmaniac im still trying to figure out if i know u lol) but here goes my two cents: 1. kimat all of todays major yeshivas were started by slabodka talmidim and if you look at who the alter felt was most raoi to succeed him in harbotzas hatorah et. all, historically it was r” dovid leibowitz, founder of the chofetz chaim yeshiva dynasty, and all of those gedolim (except possibly r” aron) would not dispute that which seemingly would be a pretty decent raya as to the fact that chofetz chaim is excuse me for sounding haughty but the best yeshiva 2. to jothar- yes r” dovid harris has sons in lakewood but that doesnt neccesarily means he agrees with their derech halimud or mussar, it just means that he feels his sons are old enough to make their own wise decisions 3. many branches have their own things to offer even within the system for instance (all the following are personal opinion) brooklyn seeems to produce better learners than the other branches, wits has a more intense program if thats what your looking for, miami has rabbi luban and rabbi goldman two of the greatest rebbeim available, dallas (my yeshiva) has the absolutely amazing rebbeim great guys and a lot to do outside of seder in terms of healthy outlets, ner aryeh (la) has a very small olam with much personal attention (however the attentions prob tru of most branches lol), along with many other branches with their own personalities and whatever, all im saying is a. dont look at wits as your only option in the system (boruch hashem lol jk) and b. dont just leave the “cult” because you feel like your being brainwashed, actually look into the sugya and see whats best for you…btw im so curious what branch your currently in

    ya im not a fan of bombmaniacs name but im familiar with many rebbeim at the chofetz chaim in brooklyn or “tiferes yisrael” as its called and i know many of the bochurim and it truly seems to be from all accounts as good a yeshiva as it gets in almost every respect…altho picking a mesivta from a blog does not necessarily seem like the smartest idea but thats just my own opinion lol

    1.well my family lives in scranton the community is a very nice growing young yeshivish community and real estate is quite low w/ close proximity to ny (if thats a good thing lol)

    2. rochester has a very nice growing chofetz chaim style community full of very warm people and the yeshiva just started a few yrs ago a new day school w/ a pizza place and shabbos takeout

    3. the shul in far north dallas has a cholent contest every winter and a growing yeshiva with warm rebbeim and geshmake guys

    4. waterbury i herd is cheap but no mikveh yet so thats bad i guess

    5. if u like having ur family together then u can move to lakewood and hav your son go to a baseball game and then all ur kids will be thrown out of yeshiva and i guess thats nice
