@LeebaW, ***THUMBS UP***!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 26, 2013 6:51 pm at 6:51 pm in reply to: Letter circulated in Brooklyn about Motzei Shabbos hangouts #950772WanderingTeenMemberThese things drive me other the freaking edge!!!!! What on earth is wrong with teenagers having some innocent fun???? The craziness in the frum community is beyond me, So wrapped up in all this stupidity, making no time for the stuff that really matter. FANATICS: YOU ARE THE ONES RESPONSIBLE FOR DRIVING YOUR KIDS OTD! Focus on whats really important and dont make a huge deal about things that are so not a problem. Gosh! what you guys dont come up with!
WanderingTeenMemberSeriously, i think you guys need to chill out. There is nothing wrong with enjoying life the way ‘at-risk'(as you guys put it) teens do! just because a child chooses not do follow in your footsteps entirely doesnt mean he’s bad! i think you guys are being wayyyyy too dramatic. Hassidic people seem to think that in judiasm, its their way or the highway. Thats where you guys are so wrong & causing such drama is what causes your children to back away further more! you guys dont realize that YOU are the ones that make your loved ones go ‘OTD’ by not accepting the fact that the child is just more modern or whatever. so stop all this drama, move on with your life. if you really love your children, you’d accept & love them regardless of which path they decide to go down!
WanderingTeenMemberOhTeeDee:
I’m with you, ALL THE WAY!!!
WanderingTeenMemberWrite or wrong,
You said there are answers to every question…I haven’t been able to get any answers to my questions! Hows about we sit down and see if you can give me answers?? maybe then I will find out the truth!

WanderingTeenMemberMsseeker,
Usually something triggers going OTD. Your daughter probably just said that as an outsider, not knowing anything about whatever situation made her say it.
WanderingTeenMemberBeing accepting is key in this situation….believe me I speak from experience! If you’d actually know what im up to you’d be surprised that I visit this site, but somehow somewhat I do occasionally for reasons not known to myself. Just letting it out there, had my parents not shown me the acceptance they do to this day, I would have been completely off. At this point I cannot say im all good, I’ll be honest im not. But thanks to my parents I didn’t trash the entire religion just yet! I’m confused like all at risk teens and by people constantly lashing out and giving ‘mussur’ so to speak, THAT drives us further away!
