1. Tzedek-Tzedek announces two upcoming events/lectures in Ramat Bet Shemesh on child abuse, and how to protect your kids, and developing a community response.
2. Lines Writing Lines talks about the Tel Aviv Central Bus Station.
3. MM has the latest chumroh question in shidduch questions.
4. Free Thought is publicizes a miracle his family experienced, without the help of a donation to Kupat Ha'Ir, and also has some advice based on his experience.
5. Muqata posts about the Gap opening its first store in Israel, and now potential olim from the US have no excuses left to not make aliyah!
6. The Jewish Worker posted parts of a booklet published by the Eida Haredis in support of the mother in Jerusalem accused of starving her son. The cartoon image is particularly offensive.
I dont know what MM's problem is. Why cant a boy want to marry a chissidishe girl whos mother covers her hair with both a shaitel and hat?
ReplyDeleteAnd whats the deal with the Bra question
I live in RBS, and I'm extremely concerned about the recent cases of child abuse in our community. I had the feeling that nothing has been done to avoid similar incidents from happening again in the future...and our kids are as vulnerable as ever.
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting the link to Tzedek-Tzedek, publicizing two events in RBS (a public talk and a professional workshop) about protecting our kids from child abuse.
I now see that there are those who criticize, and those who do...
Thank goodness we have people in Ramat Bet Shemesh taking the matter of Child Abuse seriously - and are working on practical steps and solutions.
Kol Hakavod to Lema'an Achai & Ohel! Kol Hakavod to Limudei Lotti!
I'm so upset about that booklet (#6), it's awful. When someone demonizes another person, one can become self-demonized as a result. Just awful!
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to 'reason' with some frum people not in Israel, who just 'go along' with 'what their side says' no matter what.
It's the "don't confuse me with facts"!
Anonymous at 6:58 - please explain to me what is the issue with "covers her hair with both a shaitel and hat?" and "the deal with the Bra question". This is new to me and I wan to understand it. Via tsnius email please. Thank you.
