You’re a parent. How often do you wish that you had more opportunities to learn with your son?

The challenge is that life demands most of your attention and energy. At the end of the day, your son just keeps learning more, while you get busier and find it increasingly difficult to remain involved.

This is especially true in situations where your son dorms at Yeshiva – perhaps out- of-state or even in a different country. Sometimes simply remembering the subject he’s studying isn’t something that comes easily to mind.

This can lead to an unfortunate disconnect between father and son.

Teach your children by example.

Your family always finds inspiration in your actions. When you learn at home, you imbue the environment with a sense of torah and hasmadah. When, after a full day of work, you devote even a little bit of your evening time, they learn to value the importance of torah study.

More importantly, when you express interest and discuss torah with your children, you show them that what they are learning is important to you, too. There is no better way for father and son to interact and grow closer than by‘koching’ together in the subjects the son is learning in yeshiva.

Turn a new leaf with Velimadtem.

Velimadtem is an exciting new project conceived with one single goal: to put fathers and sons on the same daf. This innovative approach enables fathers everywhere to keep in touch with their sons’ gemara learning – wherever they may be, whatever their subject of study.

Velimadtem is the result of a partnership between yeshivos worldwide and the Igud Mesivtos V’Yeshivos. The program caters to the Masechtos currently being studied b’iyun in Lubavitcher yeshivos around the globe. With time, our hope is to cover all topics learned in Yeshiva.

Cultivate a spiritual connection.

With this knowledge, you’ll always have something to discuss with your son – regardless of how much or little time you have to learn.

Just imagine next time your son calls or returns home from Yeshiva. You’ll be proud and ready to ask him, “What are you learning?”

You will actually have learnt what he is repeating back to you. Chances are, you’ll even have an interesting inyan to add and share with him. Picture the spiritual connection with your child at that moment, even if only for a couple of minutes.

What wouldn’t you give for that?
