[RBS] PSA: ein hinuch l'aveilut

[Phil'n'Chanie Rosenfelder]

most kids want to be giborim, and fast even when they don't have to
however, it is hot and many kids wind up dehydrating in their efforts
to be , what they think is, frum

i want to recommend that if your kids under gil  mitzvot are thinking
of fasting, that you take them to a rav to learn about the concept of
"ein hinuch l'aveilut" in order to best explain to your kids why they
must eat and drink even if tomorrow is a fast .  the same might apply
to tish'a b'av if it doesn't become a hag by then
