Reply To: Brainwashing as Part of Chinuch

I think that everyone here has a very low threshold for listening to other peoples views. I went to a Bais Yaakov school, and yes teachers would try to convince us to marry learners and support our families through teaching. I’m not convinced. If they would be brainwashing, I would be. They’re merely trying to convince their students of their opinion. Vogue- one thing that’s important to remember is that not all teachers are smart. Only ask questions when the teacher is smart enough to answer. Even when your teacher is smart, make sure you sound curious, not rhetorical or arrogant.
