[quote=Anonymous]A Rabbi is not there to serve you and just perform ceremonies, a rabbi is a spiritual advisor. He is well within his rights to have an opinion about the state of bar/bat mitzvahs today (which I agree is way too materialistic — although this was also the case when I had mine 20 years ago) Of course he should communicate this with compassion but he’s right. Also the bar/t mitzvah isn't your kids “day”, it’s when they join the community, which means sharing the day with any other celebration going on that Shabbat. [/quote]
