In my opinion, all these issues(drinking, smoking,, vaping) being brought up are due to a system that has many flaws. Sending a bunch of young, impressionable boys to live together for extended periods of time, with limited adult supervision, during extremely formative years of their lives is going to cause issues. They have no semblance of what it is like to live, everyday normal lives, as part of a household.

I think that the way to make sure our sons reap the benefits of yeshiva while being only minimally affected by these negatives is by making sure they have a strong sense of self and have an ability to choose from right and wrong regardless of what their friends are doing.

It’s a problem in the local Lakewood yeshivas that don’t have dorms, so your theory doesn’t work.
