Thanks for pointing it out, Lior!

It says that enrollment in Chasidic day schools is up 110% (=more than doubled) in the past 15 years since the first survey was taken. But by the Chasidim, the Shidduch crisis is in REVERSE. There are more men than women. This undermines the entire theory that the growth of day school enrollment caused the shidduch crisis.

The girls get married at a younger age than the boys by the Chasidim, but it hasn’t caused a shortage of men.

Charliehall – please comment.
