Guest guest Posted June 12, 2001 Report Share Posted June 12, 2001 It is this very laissez faire attitude amongst American parents of Jewish kids which has, unfortunately, spawned a new generation of kids " going off " , (assimilating) far more virulent in the States than here, yet, but we're catching up. The kids say: " But Mom and Dad don't care what I do. They're too busy with their own lives. Dad never made me go to shul or do anything I didn't want to do..it was all left up to me. " Sometimes parenting, particularly with something as important to us as our faith in its practice, means actually doing more than just leaving it up to them.
