He only said that one can’t learn Torah with a cell phone. He is not forbidding them. With so many parents far away from their children it is incumbent upon each bochur to speak to his parent at least once a day and reassure them that he is okay via cell phone-or just a call from a regular telephone. Parents out of EY hear the media make it sound so chaotic-that I know that it takes a ton of emunah to allow their sons to stay in EY. I live in EY and my friends who have children learning here are going crazy with fear and worry. They allow their children to learn here davka because they have the ability to be in touch with them instantly.
