If one makes a siyum to commemorate the same, it is a kiyum of the takanah (http://divreichaim.blogspot.com/2008/04/siyum-on-taanis-bechorim-ii.html). The pashtus though is that since the ta'anis is only a minhag b'alma, any simcha is enough to be doche it. Some have the same practice (I think the Steipler brings this down) of making a siyum on erev Rosh haShana because the S.A. brings a minhag ta'anis there as well.Chaim B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02231811394447584320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-29543677533510454652014-04-09T10:15:21.421-04:002014-04-09T10:15:21.421-04:00To answer your previous question , of the katan be...To answer your previous question , of the katan being patients, it's not a regular chiyuv on the gavra, it's the fact he's a bechor, it's the din bchor shebo. <br /><br />On the second question, then why does the father fast for him? Why should the father have the sons chiyuv (and not the son having the chaotic)?<br />Yybturnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12475392082466169051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20173285.post-85213384349240376672014-04-09T10:08:32.929-04:002014-04-09T10:08:32.929-04:00By a katan it might be different.

(I think katan is always considered an eino mechuyav badavar that can't be motzi the rabim, even on a din derabanan like megilla, there's a big sugya of trei derabanans not being motzi chad derabanan by bentching and the like. Here though, you're not being "motzi" anybody in the siyum, just it needs to be a siyum to pater the chiyuv, and I'm just suggesting that it may only be considered a siyum insofar as other ketanim are concerned.)
