I said “Someone” because it was just a person online who wrote this and I read it. Imho it wasn’t a troll and he believed it.

My post asked about it:

“is a female nurse a threat to a baby’s neshama?”

If the answer is no then it’s no.

If there is nothing in Judaism to suggest that covering a crib with a tallis protects an infant, then say that there isn’t.

1) Why is person’s advice any less reasonable than a religious leader declaring that all women cannot drive?

2) Why is this person’s advice any less superstitious than cutting your child’s nails out of order?

To me… if those two examples have Torah-sourced validity in the frum community, then perhaps this someone’s advice is something that some people do and I just didn’t know about it.

Thank you.
