The final geula is being delayed because of sinas chinam.

There is lots of difficulties that parents are having with children who.are going OTD.

But parents naturally love their children so deeply.

When a child is otd or in some other way "challenging" it can seem very hard and senseless for the parents who live that child so much.

But how perhaps we could reframe it like this. Having a challenging child is a gift from Hashem to make it easier for us to do the tikkun of sinas chinam- ahavas chinam because the ahaha has already been "built in" by Hashem.

It is the otd/challenging who are helping hasten the geula.

It's a thought that I find very comforting

Not only that but parents can be very G-dlike, in loving their children no matter how far they've gone, and not giving up on them.
May all who are dealing with this challenge in any capacity have koach and clarity.

How do you know the final geulah is being delayed because of sinas chinam? Maybe it's because of any of the 10 other reasons I can think of?

Although I think OP's words are very nice, I had the same question.

I don't know what is holding back the Guela and assume it is for many reasons but I've heard many times that since the Bais H'Mikdash was destroyed because of Sinas Chinam that is also what prevents it from being rebuilt.

We cannot know, but there is no harm in making the world a better place. So even if it does nothing for geulah, reducing hate is worthwhile.
