[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, are you Jewish? Im assuming so, which means that you know that most kids have to be forced to go to Hebrew school because they are kids and it is Hebrew school. But if your niece is being raised Jewish a bat mitzvah is kind of expected. [/quote] This. Growing ip, none of us liked Hebrew School (especially on Sunday mornings!) or Bra/Bat Mitzvah prep. But it’s what Jewish kids did, just like our Catholic friends went to CCD every week. I won’t comment on the cultural issues raised in OPs post and others, but IMO is the niece is being raised as Jewish in a Jewish family, the Bat Mitzvah thing is a separate issue and not an abnormal expectation of her parents.
