Reply To: Girls High School Curriculum: Maybe all the schools need to do this

OOM first of all, calm down. I am entitled to my own opinion, as is everyone else in here. My posts do not contradict each other- it is the overwhelming pressure and stress of having to know every chazal and meforsh that drives people to resenting yiddishkeit. I remember people just breaking down in tears from the stress of never-ending tests, quizes and assignments. The girls were worn down, sleep deprived and just plain DEPRESSED from all the useless memorization. One girl was so stressed, she stated out loud, “I wish I could commit suicide”. So tell me, is this what Sarah Schenirer had in mind?? This is counterproductive to teaching love of Torah.
