[quote=Anonymous]I grew up modern orthodox but am no longer orthodox. I send my kids to Jewish schools and replied in one of the above posts, but I can’t really tell if the above tone is insulting to non-orthodox Jews. Should only Orthodox Jews care about instilling a sense of jewish identity and education in their kids? It’s like asking why conservative or reform Jews “hope to get out of” going to shul, having a bar/bat mitzvah, sitting shiva, visiting israel, making Aliyah, or celebrating Jewish holidays. Why would kids from only orthodox or frum families benefit from a jewish environment and education? If anything, non Orthodox Jews whose day to day is less heavily involved with Jewish rituals have more to gain from a Jewish environment. Having grown up orthodox, this seems like such a common attitude towards the “lesser than” non orthodox. There are also studies that show the impact that Jewish camps have on kids and their Jewish identity. [/quote]
