To lay out the ad with a $1,000 increase per age for everyone to see must make these girls feel even more dejected, helpless and crestfallen. You are blatantly telling these singles that their worth, their value as a person, decreases with each passing birthday. My emotions slowly changed from anger to sadness. Have we become so low as a society that the only incentive to help each other out in times of hardship is through exorbitant sums of money? What lesson are we teaching our children? We are a people that prides ourselves on chessed and on feeling the pain of others. We should be ashamed that the only way we can think of to change this shidduch system is by adding a high monetary incentive.
Agreed! Lo Zu Haderech! We dont want to further wound the already wounded. Yes, we ought to help, but not involving further pain and public embarassment. We have to rethink this, with a public apology, because otherwise Nasi will have lost its respect in the public eye (this is coming from a hard-working Shadchan, btw).
Yes, and please continue on the other thread.
