D9, I feel terrible over your predicament. It is a very tough decision. While here I often post that people should learn a parnasa, it seems like your boys are very sincere and self-motivated. I am against Yeshivos forbidding college and secular studies across the board, but think every boy must be treated as an individual. If they truly excel in learning, and can become the next poskim, then maybe they should stay only in learning. However, we do see so many families struggling to pay the bills. It is such a difficult decision and very hard to know what Hashem wants here. They need to think it over very carefully, fully aware of how difficult it is for many families. If they still want to only learn, then maybe they should.
