  1. kneidel – the Poskim talk about this and whether there’s and issue of erasing Hashem’s name from a computer screen. In short, most poskim rule that there is no problem at all. Thus, there is no room for rebuke here because they have on whom to rely on to be lenient.

    May this child have a Refuah Shaleima Bimheira V’yamanu!

  2. We have to worry about the baby. The best way to show our support for the baby is to glorify the name of Hashem not have it on Internet pages.
