“There are parnasah options for kids who want to remain in the daled amos of the beis medrash, whether safrus, milah, shechita, hashgacha and more.”
Tzippy, do you honestly think that this is a parnosah option for people who have 12 children? I am constantly flooded with calls and mailings from these very people. They do not have jobs that give them much health insurance so if they have one kid with health problems they are wiped out. These are very meager paying jobs, okay if you do hashgocha for a major kashrus organization but how many people want to travel constantly to hong kong and india etc. I guess shechita they can make a living we always need meat and chicken but how many shochets do we need already.
