    Msseeker- your post couldn’t be more wrong!

    I, As a Chassidish woman, came across many BTs and even some Gerim/geroyes who joined our circle and community.

    Some people do like Chassidim after all….

    Ohyeah- putting them to sleep on a full stomach does NOT mean they’ll sleep through.

    Some babies do, some babies don’t. No rule.

    I have an idea! Try a cup with a regular straw! My baby loves to drink like that.

    Feed him regular healthy foods and give him to drink in a cup.

    Try a sippy cup so he can drink by himself.

    Did you try all different types of bottles and nipples? I had this with one of my babies and I tried every bottle under the sun until he finally drank from one!(Avent)

    Hatzlacha. Having been there, I feel for you.

    I think the Ezra Lmarpeh office here might be able to help you. I do not have their phone # though.

    I was told not to use it. But I guess you should feed your baby what you would eat (Kashrus-wise).

    I also used Materna for my babies.

    I agree with RB. It’s either you be them Mochel totally, or tell them outright that you expect some compensation. This is serious stuff.

    So there you go Wolf- everyone has different things that make their Shabbos more beautiful. For me flowers are for Kvod Shabbos only.

    And have telephone reception so that we can get emergency phone calls if necessary.

    Flowers? are purely to make a beautiful shabbos table. It makes me feel good because my house looks calm and shabbosdig. That’s called Hanaoh Lkovod Shabbos. An armani suit is more for others to see how beautiful you look.

    Can’t really explain it, but there’s a huge difference between the two.

    (And btw, we do wear special beautiful Shabbos clothes. But the Shabbos doesn’t really care if your suit cost $50 or $500!)

    RB- I think there’s a posuk about it. But it’s only things Lkovod Shabbos that I get paid back for. An armani suit is more Lkovod your own pride!

    I don’t know why you’re all so impressed that he was fired. They fired him because they are terrified it will ruin their business. Not because they love us.

    They’re all screaming anti semitism inside.

    About 10 Years ago, I trained myself not to eat at night. It was extremely difficult. Some nights I went to sleep very hungry, but I didn’t give up. (Once you sleep you forget!)

    By now, not eating at night comes so natural to me, that I don’t even think twice about it. I can’t even look at someone who eats late at night!! I do cheat here and there, but overall, I have no urge to eat after supper.

    (And I’m still 20 lbs overweight :()

    Hakatan- I had the same thoughts about the parking lot.

    Why doesn’t the Shul close off the parking lot for Shabbos? It will make people think twice before driving there.

    Poppa- there’s a difference in becoming drunk and acting crazy, or becoming a little lightheaded.

    CB1- I would think that the family says “aneurism”, to cover up the real reason. I don’t blame them.

    Canine- when you sleep, you can also be mekayem ad dlo yodo. Or you can bang your head in the wall several times. People choose to follow what they want to do.

    My husband became drunk one year. It was a nightmare. It is definitely NOT what the Torah asks from us. He never did it again B”H.

    Ok I’ll accept that these people are new to our community, and they’re learning about Yiddishkeit, and aren’t up to giving up their car for a day. That would make sense. Thanks to whoever suggested that. I HOPE that is the truth.
