Flatebush27,
You can’t pick and choose which particulars you will listen to the Gedolim. You apply the takonah to prohibit hotels for Pesach from the Gedolim from Eretz Yisroel to the American hotels. Yet, you make an excuse why American children are allowed to play sports.
I don’t know the cheshbon that the Gedolim take in order to make their decisions, but that was obviously catered to the Eretz Yisroel crowd. As far as I know (please inform me if I am incorrect), there aren’t American programs that cater to the non frum crowds, but in Eretz Yisroel there are those that exist.
It isn’t wise to say that hotels aren’t ever necessary. I know of a woman, who always makes Pesach at home, who unfortunately has to go to a hotel due to an serious illness this year.
For someone who doesn’t care, you seem to comment a lot about this topic!
Also, I am going to make the obligatory statement that I personally do not go to a hotel or “mish”.
