Reply To: Should Schools Ban Facebook?

The reality is unless you live on a deserted island, there are many things in life you will have to deal with and many you might not like.

PROPER Chinuch instead of banning everything is to teach the proper way to use tools.

Ive said I once worked at a well known Hasidic owned store. A customer walked in the store wearing a “PRIDE” Button and one of employees who was a yeshiva guy asked him about the pride button. The person said it was affirmative and the yeshiva guy said to him YEECH and walked away.

Proper Chinuch would have taught him to behave very differently.

What if someone is told the internet is ASSUR ASSUR and then gets a job where he must use the internet (Ie Selling stuff). The person might consider his job as bad as working at mcDonalds even though there is nothing wrong with his job.
