After they become Bar Mitzvah, Jewish boys are responsible for all the commandments of the Torah/Bible. They are supposed to eat kosher food, honour the Sabbath, celebrate holidays, and many more. Many non-observant Jews do not follow all these rules, it really depends on their level of observance. But really, the meaning of becoming Bar Mitzvah is becoming an adult and becoming responsbile for your actions and choices.
