One of my kids has a great Rebbi this year BH. Among his maylos, he is on top of being in touch regularly, even if it is a 1-minute phone call (less than 30 minutes and he calls the whole class).
These phone calls would take a little longer than that. Perhaps it could be suggested that each Rebbi should call the parents of his class before Sukkos to discuss the reality (Aseres Yemei Teshuva might be an extra push for parents to hear if some things in their home need to change to protect their children). They can also prep the boys before going home and check in with them after bein hazemanim. Some of these conversations need to happen years before they go to yeshiva. Devices and other influences are affecting kids much earlier than that. Just an idea, and I wanted to bump this thread before . . .  Warning: Spoiler! |

The yetzarim a person has the most trouble dealing with are his most powerful God-given tools for developing his potential and achieving shleimus. It doesn't matter how big the number is, only that today it is going up by one. Please feel free to reach out. I'd appreciate connecting with you (via GYE, email, or phone - whatever floats your boat) A little about me: guardyoureyes.com/forum/19-Introduce-Yourself/412971-I-Want-to-Help-Others |

Warning: Spoiler!I'm very open to ideas of raising awareness in the proper way. I'm just curious why you think this will work? (I hope I'm not coming across as too harsh, it isn't my intention.) What makes you think that: a) Rebbeim are aware of the issues and ready to deal with them? b) Parents are aware and ready? Explaining to anyone who isn't aware of the issue the severity of it, how many people struggle, etc is much longer than a minute or two conversation, I think. Warning: Spoiler! |

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. You might be right and this wouldn't be realistic. It would require a structured system where the Rabbeim are educated by an appropriate Rosh Hamosad who would oversee it. I can try to paint an example tomorrow when I have some more time (and could still be that it's not practical) Kol tov |
