Mammele: +1 Lipa is going way overboard this time! If he doesn’t want his wife to shave her head , so be it, BUT HE SHOULDN’T TELL OTHER WOMEN WHAT TO DO!!
a maminParticipantThis is really not a joke! This is serious business! So often I hear how parents are not realistic about their children’s needs and then they end up with a divorced child! You need to have a serious but respectful conversation with both your parents! They assume they are doing what’s best for you! You will need to convince them otherwise!
a maminParticipantReVa Pomerantz writes beautifully!
a maminParticipantWhy can’t the list be entered here? I’m sure it would help many others as well.
a maminParticipantI was referring to the last topic you brought up with getting married and no money?
June 11, 2015 6:13 pm at 6:13 pm in reply to: The real reason for the ban against chassidish women driving? #1086870a maminParticipantMATAN 1: You are looking to start an explosion? How can you compare that to this? Give me a break, that’s clearly indisputably cult like. In most Chasidis women do not drive, and no one forces you to follow your chasidus, if you want to leave you are free to do so in most any chasidus that I know of!
a maminParticipantFlatbusher: I find it quite interesting, the topics you choose to bring up on this forum….
June 10, 2015 9:12 pm at 9:12 pm in reply to: The real reason for the ban against chassidish women driving? #1086849a maminParticipantOOHMEIN!!!
a maminParticipantWOW: Still having you in mind as always…..
June 10, 2015 6:47 pm at 6:47 pm in reply to: The real reason for the ban against chassidish women driving? #1086846a maminParticipantZD: In what way was I telling anyone how to act, besides minding your own business?
June 10, 2015 5:40 pm at 5:40 pm in reply to: The real reason for the ban against chassidish women driving? #1086844a maminParticipantZD: Funny, we also stop in KJ on the way home from visiting day. You must not have been there in a long time because the supermarkets are massive!
As far as women driving or not in Chasidic communities, its no ones business. Who’s pointing the gun at you or your wife and telling her not to drive? If you don’t belong to that Chasidus , you can choose who you listen to.
Besides , all the comments here, based on stupidity of why its “not tzniusdig NOT to drive.” Everyone should listen to their local Rav or Rebbe.
a maminParticipantWhats the difference with all of you making fun of shtreimlich and Bnei Yoel burning the israeli flag?
a maminParticipantDY: On target, as usual!
GAW: Whats $11,000 when you’re marrying off a child? I’m not talking about lavish weddings or lavish expenses. Though Baruch Hashem with Hashems help we marry off our children and set them up as well. Then they’re on their own …..
a maminParticipantIn many communities the takana weddings are working. So they’ve accomplished bringing down the cost of marrying off, but they still need outside help to marry off their children.
a maminParticipantsatmer: when is the last time you heard a 19 year old afford to pay for their own wedding?
Don’t be ridiculous! Usually in our circles the parents pay for the chasunah of their children. that being said , Baruch HaShem with a large family , how can one put away money to marry off all their children without outside help, even if they are working! Most families are happy they get by, but to put away money is another thing all together!
a maminParticipantFlatbusher: You can choose where you want to give tzedaka and do chesed. No one is forcing you to pay for their wedding.If there is one thing I cant stand is people who are approached for Tzedaka, don’t want to give and give their unsolicited advice instead! Don’t worry the couple will get married without your contribution!We are a people of chesed. The amount of tzedaka and chesed the Jewish nation give is uncomparable! My wish for you, is that you should always be on the giving end …. and never have to understand or feel what its like to need.
a maminParticipantNfgo: I wish I would’ve been judge mental . Unfortunately I wasn’t .there were various signs which I chose to ignore , her not going to camp was one of them. I’m not saying this applies to everyone! As I said earlier, you need to know the reason behind it. Without knowing any details , I found you the one being judge mental by the way…… Don’t worry I’m not taking it personal.
a maminParticipantcoz….. I think I have a great shidduch for you!!
a maminParticipantMy X daughter in law didn’t go to camp. It definitely should have been a sign of her social awkwardness. You need to know the reason behind not wanting to go? Some people are just to homesick….
a maminParticipantSyag: On target!
Gamanit: That is the ways of creation….I wasn’t referring to pregnancy loss, of course. Only to actually being able to fit the role of motherhood.
a maminParticipantEverything is based on your perspective. Being pregnant for nine months is absolutely wonderful! Think of all the people who WISH they could be pregnant and are having difficulty….. They would trade places with you any day!
As far as sefira is concerned…. there is a reason for this. Though I will admit, working without music is very difficult and boring!
a maminParticipantIn Boro Park I believe Torah Veyirah is the cheapest!
Mazel tov!
a maminParticipantRefuah sheleima l’ Gila bas Francis and Tzipora bas Gila
a maminParticipantAmama: thank you for your reply! They are in all my tefilos and I was hoping to hear Gita besiras…..
a maminParticipantHASHEM YERACHIM!
a maminParticipantChavi123: I am with you 100%!! I started this post with only good intentions and are very disappointed, to put it mildly! After all this , haven’t we learnt anything at all?? I thought very often , that I certainly pray that no one from the Sassoon family is reading these highly insensitive posts!!
I’ve seen various clips from Mr. Sassoon and are totally in awe of him, and how he raised his family!! I feel that each time he speaks publicly he is giving me personally an enormous amount of chizuck in emunah and bitochon!! They have lost 7 of their children , rachmonei litzlan, I feel their loss is our loss as well!
May this bring an end to all tzoris in Klal Yisroel !!
Mods please close this thread, I really feel there is nothing to gain further here…
a maminParticipantSam: If you listen to Rabbi Wallerstein you will hear. One of the points made was, “If Hashem wanted to teach us about smoke detectors and hot plates, Hwe could’ve taken 1 child, we would’ve all been shocked as well, BUT here it was SEVEN KARBONOS!! Please take the time to listen. You will be enlightened.
a maminParticipantLetakin girl on another thread has so kindly brought to our attention , an amazing shuir by Rabbi Wallerstein on this tragedy. This brings all my thoughts to fruition. He quotes Rav Kanievsky, the Gadol Hador in Eretz Yisroel as well! Yes this is real Daas Torah. I’m sure you will all want to listen to it and gain true wisdom! May these karbonos bring an end to all tzaros in Klal Yisroel!

When I started this thread , I ONLY had good intentions I never meant it to turn into this! After all this haven’t we learnt anything at all? We can all have different opinions but there’s a way to say it ….
I also never said that Hamodia is daas Torah. I wrote about that in a seperate
entry. I rewrote the editorial because I thought it made a lot of sense.
Wishing you all a Simchas YomTov and may we ONLY share simchas in Klal Yisroel!!
a maminParticipantI am quoting the editorial in today’s Hamodia” When learning of a tragedy of any sort, there is a natural inclination to make inquiries as to precisely what occurred and how it happened. Often, these questions are driven by a fear of this happening to us, and the subconscious desire to use this detailed information to distance our own circumstances from those of the victims and comfort ourselves with the thought that this couldn’t happen to us.
BUT as Torah Jews, we must seek to Quell this inclination with the realization that this IS about all of us!
Certainly, HISHTADLUS, for safety is obligatory at all times, but the primary reaction to this communal tragedy must be of spiritual
introspection.
This is a time for each of us to make a cheshbon hanefesh, to look deep within the recesses of our own heart and seek the way to return to HASHEM.
However, in order to do so, we must fortify ourselves with emunah peshuta!
a maminParticipantA pushata Yid. I think I need to clarify my point? YES we all need to have working smoke detectors, BUT according to the Daas Torah I’ve heard, they have claimed whoever comes out of this thinking , that’s all we would’ve needed is a working smoke detector, THEY HAVE ALL MISSED THE POINT! There is a higher authority and no one in their right mind can deny that!
a maminParticipantZD: Please speak with your local Rabbi.
a maminParticipantWe must all have working smoke detectors in our homes. That being said, if that’s the message you get out of this horrific tragedy, you’ve MISSED THE POINT!!
a maminParticipantI did 7 hrs ago , but like you said , no one has been able to comment?
The loss is massive , you are right we all need to do teshuva. I guess each person knows where they need to. It’s an individual thing, each one separately . I feel numb right now , I can’t stop thinking of the family left behind….they will need tremendous chizuck….may Hakadush Baruch Hu console us all…
a maminParticipantKj chusid; what have you been drinking??? Is that really you or some imposter?
a maminParticipantI Love it!! It takes the boredom out of the day!!
a maminParticipantWhat a cool game!!
February 8, 2015 5:00 am at 5:00 am in reply to: How to Deal with a Request for a Shidduch Picture #1136543a maminParticipantDY: it’s a very painful subject for me, am I the only parent here who’s son doesn’t accept any parental
Opinion??
February 5, 2015 10:32 pm at 10:32 pm in reply to: How to Deal with a Request for a Shidduch Picture #1136535a maminParticipantHe would either get a picture on his own or he won’t go into the shidduch.
February 5, 2015 9:21 pm at 9:21 pm in reply to: How to Deal with a Request for a Shidduch Picture #1136533a maminParticipantAll kidding aside: Any recommendations for a mother who’s son won’t consider a shidduch till he sees a pic??
a maminParticipantI Believe the Divrei Yoel was one of the gedolei hador, but He was not the Rebbe I was referring to.
a maminParticipantFirst of all I would like to commend you on your opening remarks. Secondly, my advice is as follows: you need to sit down and have a heart to heart discussion, explaining your feelings. Please try to keep it as respectful as possible. I would begin with thanking them for everything they’ve done and continue to do for you on a daily basis. You need to explain to them that you understand how they only have your best interests in mind, but you’ve come to a point in your life where you need to have a little more independence! Yes you are prepared to even make mistakes along the way , but that’s how we all grow… If you convey your wishes with respect and thankfulness I am sure they will get your message! Hatzlocha!!!
a maminParticipantCI Boy : Didn’t mean to go off topic, how are you doing???
a maminParticipantOkay so here’s your big chance!!!! Today it warmed up a little in New York, so whoever was not KIND enough to remove their ice , DO IT NOW! Before the next storm hits…..
a maminParticipantWithout giving out to much private info. I will say our Rebbe was niftar awhile back, and no one individual was able to take over the loss and the impact he had on our life: therefore we have a few Rabbonim we consider to be our Rav.
a maminParticipantI’m affiliated with all of them!
a maminParticipantKJ: I told you I am neutral, believe it or not!
a maminParticipantLG: I may not agree with KJ chusid, but I wouldn’t call him a self hating Jew??? If someone is anti-zionist does not call for them to be referred to as a self hating Jew!
