Question

I find it difficult to immerse utensils. Can I send my child, who is an expert in the laws and always teaches me what needs to be immersed? What about the blessing? And how to immerse?

Answer

Shalom and blessings. First of all, thank God you have a child who is a talmid chacham, and may you merit that he grows to be great in Israel. However, according to Halacha, even a child who knows the laws well can only immerse utensils when someone over Bar Mitzvah is present and supervising him.
