[quote=Anonymous]5:37 here I just want to add that almost ALL Jewish children complain about going to Sunday School and Hebrew School. Just like I'm sure most Christian kids complain about have to go to church on Sunday. If that is what this child doesn't want to do, then it likely has nothing to do with being adopted from Asia but more about not wanting to do do extra work or not wanting to wake up early on Sunday mornings. It's not clear from the OP if this is what the child is unhappy about or if the child has already gone all through Hebrew school and doesn't want to take the next year to prepare for her Bat Mitzvah. If it's the latter, then this child is likely 12 years old and should be able to articulate why it is she doesn't want a Bat Mitzvah and her parents should be clued in if it's the work involved in preparation or something deeper about not feeling connected.[/quote]
