GAW, it is a well known fact that Hashem does not discriminate when dealing the nisayon cards. Those who scream that “your child may affect my child” might be the very same ones that are begging the RY to keep their child in yeshiva the following year. Furthermore if we understood as a community and as a yeshiva system in general the reasons why kids go OTD, and make appropriate corrections to combat the process, we will be in a better position to help those kids and work with them instead of shoving them along their dark journey. There are many more mentors and volunteers in each community that are more than willing to get involved and come into the yeshivas to help out.
