[Avodah] a troubling halacha

[Rich, Joel]

		Rather it seems to me that the reason for kaddish to be
said by all the sons, and only the sons, is simply because that's the
way the minhag was originally done. Not because of any reason which has
yet been mentioned in this post.

	WADR, may I strongly suggest that you get a hold of a copy of
Mourning in Halacha by Rabbi Chaim Binyamin Goldberg. (

<http://www.artscroll.com/Books/moup.html>  )
	
	There you will be able to read all about Kaddish, who should say
it, when it is to be said, etc.

	================ 

	I would have assumed the reason is that the source story by R'
Akiva was teaching the son rather than R' Akiva doing it himself.
