Most/all serial killers and psychopaths killed and tortured animals for the heck of it I’m adolescence. Just saying. This thread is making me uncomfortable.
I didn’t mean that’s it’s my useful ZD. I meant for me ( jokingly) because I just couldn’t grasp it. But science ( I was a bio major until I decided to study education, I was a psychology minor , also useful. Everything I learned has been useful. A bit more modern but still a orthodox yeshiva.
Tknd, a lot more than you think. I studied in high school science, psychology, history, math, music, Spanish just to name a few. All but Spanish has helped me I’m the real world. ( I couldn’t get the hang of Spanish and my teacher was a mean person). If you don’t plan to go out in the real world and get a job outside of the diamond district you do need many more skills them are being taught in these yeshivos.
Think about someone else. I laughed when I read your post. Don’t try and make me feel bad because oh poor webberman isn’t going to get a chance to molest other little girls. BH I’m not your friend? BH I don’t know any people like you. BH he was convicted. Chas vshalom any human wants to hear of such things. BUT when the stories do come out ( many have already but they won’t testify) I will gladly drink a lechaim in the spirit of him rotting in jail.
Health you clearly have no experience in the outside world and now once and for all I believe your sole purpose he is to troll. No “medical degree”, no life experience outside of your shtetl. You are in such utter denial and should just stop posting.
You are in such sad denial! Yichud. DID occur and that is just the least of it. Why are you so quick to throw a young Jewish girl under the bus? Because she has some issues and questioned orthodoxy that makes her a monster? How about the countless monsters in Williamsburg who hurt young boys, do you agree that it’s good they are protected by their communities? People like you make me sick.
Shraga and nisht, ” innocent until proven guilty”? He was proven guilty.. In a court of law. The end. I think it’s ” comical” that people like you will defend a ” frum” Jew until the ends of the earth because of his religion yet you fail you have compassion for a young girl who is one of you too.
My friend has been sharing a babysitter with a frum couple for the past 4 months. The other women claimed she caught her watching innappropriate videos online caught by their filter that her Rav had her install. The nanny who is a single mother trying to hold down 2 jobs was fired and… You guessed it, turns out it was the chofetz Chaim husband. Why don’t you take another strong look at this webberman case and see what you have overlooked just because you want to protect a Jew who in my opinion never was frum.
Health I sincerely hope you only have sons. C’v anything like this happened to your daughter she would probably be like the other girls molested by Webberman and afraid to come forward because people like you would shun her from the community.
What is the evidence that it didn’t occur?
People need to wake up and smell the ( pedophile).
Hudi, is it necessary to put chas vshalom after discussing women in sweatshirts?
Loyal Jew. No. That’s their sports jacket. There are no sports sweat shirts. A foot ball player would have given his football jacket with his number on it to his ” girlfriend” for her to wear. As for sweatshirts, my father went to Kentucky on business and got me a sweatshirt there because he always gets us something when he goes away, it’s one of my favorites I even wore it on.. Wait for it.. Shabbos after dinner because I was cold and wanted to be cozy and read a book. Guys stop looking for problems in a world with too many already.
Golfer, hopefully you are!!! And to others.. Why is wearing a sweatshirt acting like goyim I mamish don’t get it!!!! Goyim wear earrings, is wearing earrings a goyish thing to do? I am happy to do the things Hashem asks of me, in fact I love it! But he never told me not to wear a sweatshirts.
Baalhabooze, until I had a child I did not appreciate it!!! My husband an I used to take short naps on shabbos and take walks, read just hang out. Now if I can nap for 20 mins I’m golden!!! Good call though about over 15 because most of my other examples were going to be kids, high schoolers, people with no jobs.
I love coffee, it’s not about me feeling like I have a limited life style. I don’t listen to this silly nonsense. I wear gold shoes and pink hats, I have Internet on my phone because I can control myself, I have a Facebook and no I’m not friends with guys who aren’t in my family / husbands family, I live my life according to how I see fit and try my best to follow what I believe Hashem wants me to do. I don’t tell other people what to do especially when there is no basis for it. If I see my friend c’v eating treif I would say something, but someone wearing a sweatshirt is none of our business. Just like someone wearing sheer tights or a fitted top isn’t our business. You do for you and let others do for them and in the end Hashem will let us know who was right.
And yes in general the yeshivish world can be a limited life style. Not in the sense that you are missing out on anything, but in the sense that there are a TON of rules to follow and it takes a great deal o effort to do it but that’s what we do. Why add on more rules and regulations when it’s not needed?
Sometimes the things I read here make me for a split second question why I am frum. How horrible is that???? Is this what we have to discuss, whether or not YOU think it’s appropriate for “Shira” to wear a sweatshirt? If you don’t like it don’t wear one! This makes me so angry and I hope my children never have to deal with being judges on what they wear to keep them warm.
My sister in laws boyfriend is ” ex charedi”, not not religious at all. He is divorced with 2 kids ( satmar) whom he has no contact with because he said that satmar believes if you are no longer frum, you aren’t Jewish. Does anyone know if that is a real chasidish concept because I can’t believe it. Anyway my sil told me that basically all his life growing up he had tons if questions. Questions about halachos and about things he didn’t understand in the Torah and that no one ever took the time to help him understand. He was shut up or yelled at when he questioned anything. His ex wife had some minor mental issues that apparently his parents knew about but still had him marry her. He is so far off the derech now and it makes me so sad. Not the fact that he eats treif and has no regard for shabbos, but that this did not have to be the way. Now c’v am I ever saying its you or anyone here’s fault for their child going OTD but I just wanted to share because I’m so sad over it. Not to mention the fact that slowly my sil is slipping farther away from keeping shabbos etc.
^^^ yes I second shani nemetsky! She’s my friend but also has done my makeup for 2 chasunas and it was amazing! I wanted her for my wedding but she was in israel. I used another amazing person but she’s in monsey and does travel but she was a little pricey..
Sweatshirts are so warm and easy to wear. Why is it that every last drop of a persons independence has to be regulated? Hashem didn’t say in the Torah that women were forbidden from wearing sweatshirts, why do you have to add more chumras to an already very limited life style? I’m not a teen.. I’m a married mother and when I need to walk to do errands I often wear a comfortable sweatshirt because it keeps me warm when it’s not quite cold enough for a coat.
What???^ why have we never seen these beings then?
Same sex marriage became legal in July 2011 , not right before hurricane sandy at all.
I have thought about this a lot and wondered the same thing, but the fact is we can’t ever know. We should always be working on ourselves no matter what is going on.
I am shocked that someone here wrote that a bais yaakov invited Christine Quinn to speak. I am nauseated! What is happening in our culture? My husband and I were at a Friday night shabbos meal recently and politics as always came up. This one guy ( modern but shabbos observant kashrus observant grew up going o yeshiva day schools, said that he was ” fiscally conservative but socially very liberal”. I knew what this meant but my husband had to start up with him because he can’t understand how a person can be in favor or toeiva marriage but keep Hashem’s Mitzvos. I once said to someone that you can’t possibly consider yourself a Torah observer if you are in favor of gay marriage. I have literally lost friendships over my views because so many frum and modern Jews now think ok it’s 2012/2013 let’s get wih the times gay marriage isn’t what is used to be.
Here we go. Pit bulls are not mean dogs. Any dog can be a mean dog if its raised a certain way. I have 2pit bulls. They are the sweetest things in the world. If they had been beaten as puppies it would be another story. A pit bill has the ability to do damage because of their strength but if treated right they won’t be like that.
New roc city is fun I grew up around there but not really the city. Ripleys believe it or not manhattan is SO fun. Wax museum. The big toys are us and m&m factory is you aren’t c’y.
My father always feeds my families 3 dogs before he takes a bite of food in the morning or at dinner time. I am a hugeeee dog lover. Yes it’s a pain sometimes but it becomes part of your routine and doesn’t seem like a pain once you have had a pet for a while.
Being a parent.
Finding cheap gas.
Uninterrupted sleep!!
NOT getting the flu during flu season..!
That feeling after you light shabbos candles.. Ahhh best ever.
Laughing really hard.
A shabbos nap.
The list is endless.
I in no way am educated enough in this to answer but, I know that someone going through the process of conversation cannot fully keep shabbos. I know of a story that goes something like this . A woman was in the process of converting to Judaism and decided that she would fully keep shabbos because she was converting anyway and she felt it was the right thing to do. One time when she met with the Rabbi she confessed that she had been trying so hard to fully keep shabbos, but as a smoker she just had to have one cigarette everyday including shabbos. He laughed and said something to the affect of it being good and you shouldn’t 100% keep shabbos until you are a Jew.
I honesty don’t even understand your second paragraph.
Health, you could not be more wrong. I can’t tell if you are trying to make a joke or not, but you are wrong. Being 10 pounds over weight is not the end of the world, it does not mean that you like an unhealthy life. Being 60 pounds over weight is grotesque and that person is in serious need of a life style change. When I was dating if my husband had been 10-15 pounds heavier than he was it probably would have had zero impact on me continuing to date him. Had he been 50-60 pounds over weight? No way because he clearly does not value his health/life. Granted not everyone feels this way I know many over weight people who are happily married, I also have friends who are chubby or who’s husbands are a little chubby and I know my friends would have serious problems if their husbands became ” fat” because it is unhealthy and sets a bad example for your children.
There is definitely a difference between “fat” and “chubby”. I don’t think there is too much wrong with saying no to a shidduch because one of the parties is overweight. In my Kallah classes I learned physical attraction is a big factor in a marriage. If weight is an issue say no in the beginning, not once people have spent thousands of dollars to fly across the country for a lechaim! Also the girls feelings were at stake at that point. In general when people say we focus too much of superficiality, I have mixed feelings. There is being superficial, and there is reasonable.
She is actually married now with a 1 year old! She isn’t ” fat” I would say chubby I guess but beautiful and her husband adores her. The first guy had never mentioned it so she was taken a back. There is also a way to go a out saying something.. That was not the way!
Infertility is not hereditary. Many things are but this is not. My mother had had some issues with this and when I got married I asked my Dr about it and he said one thing has nothing to do with the other. BH I got pregnant quite easily and am a mom.
Unless an injury has occurred there is no way to tell unless she has a work up which is not going to happen. It’s all in Hashem’s hands. Even if c’v she needs fertility treatments, bH medical advances are getting better by the day and what they have already accomplished is amazing.
What in the op’s post suggests that she is related to the girls family at all?
I do not think that prank was funny at ALL. What a cruel thing to do with someone oh my gosh.
I have a friend who was in Israel and about to get engaged. Her family flew in, his family was there already, everything was planned. The night before he was planning to propose, they were taking a walk and he mentioned very non chalantly that he hopes she plans to lose weight during their marriage. I guess she thought about this all night, and the next day when he asked her she said no!!!
I also live in Queens and think that I do a pretty good job shopping on a budget. I don’t have food stamps or assistance, I’m not sure what you are able to spend but ill try to give some tips!
Sign up for Aron’s and seasons daily circulars. Seasons has a reputation for being super expensive. The seasons in the town I grew up sells most of their briskets Etc for 16.99 a pound, and in queens you can find for 6.99. Aron’s send coupons almost everyday. Te other day they had chicken cutlets for $1.99 a pound. Often I download the entire circular so that I am prepared when I get to the store. Aron’s has an outer area that contains some fruits and veges I’m sure you know. I found that they are much cheaper than the ones inside! A few weeks ago I decided to compare. The peppers are over $1 cheaper outside as are the onions and bagged potatoes.
Seasons sometimes has half off deli prices. You pick why you want and they weigh it, then cut the price in half. This doesn’t happen so often but when it does, if you have the room it’s wise to freeze chicken, prepared meats Etc.
Do you like sushi? I do! Main glatt on Main Street has excellent sushi for around $3.95 a roll. Sometimes I will pick up 5 rolls for dinner or my husband and me and its delicious and not expensive.
Meal Mart on main also has great prices that are sometimes overlooked. Their fried chicken is amazing and really inexpensive and they have huge portions. Good luck!
Creepy, I was there today too. :-). And yes seasons usually had very cheap meat sales on Sundays and Mondays.
I did it, really easy actually!! The second paragraph I have seen something like it. So interesting! Are the stats true?
Hey I have a great marriage !! 🙂 bH
I usually can’t afford to go to Costco because I end up spending too much on things I don’t need BUT.. Costco is great for paper plates and definitely flatware. I usually get paper towels etc at Costco once or twice a year and just stock up. I go to Aron’s kissena farms for most of my grocery needs. Sometimes they have such amazing sales on meat/ chicken and dairy. As a teacher I get a discount.. Always see what you qualify for. Shop rite has great prices for canned goods, soda, milk, bottled water, baby food, raw fruit and veggies. Cvs surprisingly sells pareve Dunkin Heinz cake and cookie mixes at $1 a box which is amazing!!!
Good gracious. Stop attacking the OP. He isn’t saying that these kids shouldn’t be in this earth or c’v he wishes they weren’t, he is just asking ( an interesting) question in my opinion.
Nooooo don’t use a straightener! It bends the hand so it will look crimped.
Maybe you could speak directly to the seminary. Perhaps half the year you could learn and the other half be a madricha? I have a friend who did something similar to this, I can ask her for more details if you would like.
