I read it too. Nothing I have’nt read or heard before.
IMHO, the main cause of kids going off (or worse, feeling dead, disconected) is when they see / hear inconsistancies.
If they hear from the pulpit “movies are bad” yet mom rents DVDs to watch on the home computer, or they read “stealing / lying is bad” but they see big bro’ earning $ off the books so he can get Fetteh Shmiel to pay the rent, that gives a teen a mixed message.
So who screams louder? Hands down, Madison Ave, which tells you, forget yashrus, there’s no justice anyhow.. live for today, and do what you want.
That sends kids into a tailspin.
