Clearheaded -Saying that a person cannot go OTD for “mental reasons” is clearly K’neged Halacha. If you defined different levels of “mental reasons” it could be that it wouldn’t be k’neged. But to generally say all “Mental reasons” is. Didn’t you learn a Shoitah is Putter in mitzvos? Even a Cheresh is Putter. You seem to misinterpret Dan l’caf zecus. We were judging them up at the time they went off and at that time they were keeping mitzvos. You have no reason not to give these kids the benefit of doubt.
