“, on the other hand if and when they need it for parnussah, they may be far more dedicated.”
Fabie you posted really well. However, by the time some boys wake up to the reality that they cannot make a parnassah and are not trained for anything, it may be too late. Let’s say they get married and their wives agree to support for five years. After five years, do you really think those wives will be thrilled to have to support them while they go for training or schooling that they could have far more easily done before having the responsibilities of a wife and possibly children?
I think SRPsych has an excellent option.
