PARENTS BLAMED FOR CONFUSION OF YOUTH
STARLIGHT, Pa., (JTA) — Jewish parents are falling their children by not providing them with proper spiritual and ethic<il guidance. Dr. Ira Eisensteln of Chicago charged, addressing a conference here of 80 teen-age re¬ gional leaders of the B'nai B'rith Youth Organization. He asserted that Jewish youth today is "al¬ together confused because they cannot see what effect either belonging or believing has upon moral   behavior   or   individuals."
Rabbi Eisensteln was equally critical of the structure of or¬ ganized Jewish religious life, "Jewish adults seem to think that when they have established three major denominations they have solved the problem for their chil¬ dren—all the young people have to do is choose one of the denomi¬ nations. The fact is, however, that none of the three groups offers a clear-cut program of Jewish be¬ lief and practice. Each is a loose consideration of more or less like- minded people who are not pre¬ pared to make an issue of doc¬ trine, because they are too con¬ cerned about keeping their or¬ ganization Intact."
The result is confusion for most young people. Dr. Eisensteln con¬ tinued. "The solution is an en¬ riched religious school curriculum that would stress values of living I and ethical life," he declared.
