Question
A nursing care young man who cannot eat solid food (currently), is he obligated in Kiddush (he cannot do it himself, and others need to do it for him)?
Answer
According to the basic law, he is exempt from Kiddush. However, since in Shaarei Teshuva (Siman 282) it is brought from Sefer HaBatim that even in such a case one should make Kiddush, he should not do it himself, but others should do it for him. The one who does it for him must also fulfill the Kiddush obligation, as there is an opinion that he is not obligated.
