Sorry poppa – I missed your post the 1st time.

Is my son like that? I need to face facts; everyone (myself included) takes the path of least resistence. If not held to standards, why strive? And at 22-24 no less?

Add to this mix the fact that slacker attitude is amply (and in some cases, lavishly) rewarded. I mean, to hand a boy a Breitling.. just because he asked for one! 5-10 years suport? At least the kallah has shown her ability to earn a decent living, so her diamond solitare can be justified. But what does a bochur bring to the table that warrants such a shakedown?

Time has come to start asking the hard questions. (and yes, I only have boys…. until the D-I-Ls start ariving 🙂
