ZD – you see now how labels breed sinas chinam. I have written several posts asking you for your opinion and showing respect and agreement for your opinion, and never once did I imply that I agree with the OP.
Yet you assume that I must agree with the person whom the OP was quoting because you are assuming that that person is Chareidi edited!
As you can see, I do not decide who to agree with based on their label (especially regarding an issue that has no connection to hashkafa). And I also don’t decide what label to give someone based on their opinion on a particular issue.
Why are you making assumptions about me based on my label? And why are you making assumptions about the OP’s quotee’s label based on his opinion? Why are you assuming that he must be Chareidi, and why are you assuming that I must agree with him?
WTP & ZD – thank you for the information and for answering my questions in any case. I would have preferred that the answers be given over a bit more nicely, but I appreciate the information in any case.
You missed my point , it has nothing to do with which camp you consider yourself part of. But more you seem to be always willing to give the benefit of the doubt to more charedi people, but not so much to people on the more modern side. Its perfect OK to disagree with someone on your camp and agree with people on the other side. It does not damage your principles.
Personally I certainly think the charedi communities have more of a sense of community than the more modern communities and are more willing to help than the more modern ones and try to make the Yeshiva tutitions more affordable than the modern communities where tuition very well might destroy the community
LU, if my answer was harsh don’t take it personally, it’s because this is very important, and sometimes when it comes to safety, people laugh it off and think “oh, they’re just being over-protective, nothing will actually happen if I do X…”
WTP – I’m sorry – that part of my post wasn’t meant for you. There was nothing harsh about your answer. I appreciate your answering my questions. I never knew anything about this before, and I’m happy to know. It’s important to know these things. If/when I have my own kids, I suppose I will find out anyhow, but meanwhile, it’s good to know in case I’m watching someone else’s kids. And I probably would never have heard about this otherwise, so thank you!
Don’t take my ignorance as a generalization – the fact that I never heard of this doesn’t mean that most people haven’t. When my youngest siblings were kids, they weren’t saying these things yet, so I was never updated. But I’m sure most parents of babies know about these things.
