My 19-year-old couldn’t find himself in any yeshiva. He was negative, weak, and pulling other bochurim down with him. Now, I cringe that I thought of him as weak: my perspective of my son has changed, and, slowly, so has he.
Today, he has become my most positive child, with a real love for people and Yiddishkeit. He’s the life of our family and everyone is pulled towards him and his sparkling personality.
