L’kovod Mattisyahu Bernstein’s Bar Mitzvah…

According to Rav Moshe Feinstein zt”l, a person is still obligated to be madrich and mechanech his children post-bar-mitzvah. Why then the “baruch shepetaranee”? Says Rav Moshe: beforehand it is bein adam lachaveiro; afterwards, it is bein odom lamokom. The berachah is over becoming pattur from the bein odom lachaveiro, since for that Teshuvah would not help (without mechilah) (see Darash Moshe page 427)
