Underage Underwriters

A 60-Second Clip

The Mitzvah ATM is about to dispense the Torah in honor of the holiday of Shavuot. One snag, though: It wants trustworthy guarantors...

Bar mitzvah
Tell your niece to contact her local Chabad Rabbi - he will see to it that her son can learn for free, although it's worth it to pay for a Torah education. By the way, your nephew will become a bar mitzvah (responsible to keep the mitzvot) at age 13 like all Jews, whether he has a celebration or not. G-d willing he will learn about his tradition and obligations as a Jew!

OUR CHILDREN
My neice is interested in ALL religions, including that of her parents, Judaism. She recently put a Mezuzzah on her door. She has a 12 year old son & has investigated the possibility of him having a bar mitzvah. He has never gone to Hebrew school for the same reason he probably won't have a Barmitzvah -- it costs too much money. If judaism and synagogues are serious about children being Bar and Bat-Mitzvahed, why don't they lower their fees? Are Bar- and Bat mitzvahs even relevant in the lives of Jews who embrace ALL cultures, like my niece....or "lapsed" Jews, like myself? After all, Prince William and Kate Middleton -- & most of the other younger peoople in the world - have NOT had Bar & Bat Mitsvahs....& it hasn't done THEM any harm, at all! Arnold Toynbee said Judaism is a 'fossil'...& I think he may have been right.
Many, many people just don't see anything important in being Jewish today. Why sacrifice money and effort to be part of a fossil?

the destiny of our children
Yes children are the future. Does your child/children know his or her destiny? ...and what is the future like for an orphan? ...How about a spiritual orphan?
