Tuesday 13 January 2015 Atnachta

We visited our friends at Atnachta, Masha and Yaron.  Atnachta is a home for children between the ages of 12-18 that are not living in their home.  They reported 75% of the children come from ultra orthodox homes where the parents ask them to leave or they leave on their own because of their behavior.  Some of the families want to keep contact with the child but others will consider their child dead and have no more contact with them until they conform to family beliefs and expectations.
