<DIV>There would seem to be a slight problem in the logic. The only reason we
have to follow the chiyuvim deRabbanan is because there is a mitsvoh d’Aureisa
that commands us to follow the Rabbinic mitsvot and takanot. But the ketanim are
not mechuyav in any mitzvot d’Aureisa (including lo tasur yamin u’semol) so how
can they be required to follow Rabbiinic commands? At best the mitsvoh of
chinuch is on the father (although I have vaguely heard of some meforshim who
apply to the chiyuv in some fashion to the ketanim as well). I haven’t followed
this thread from the beginning so please excuse me if I have brought up
something you already discussed.</DIV>
