Dofi, nobody uses their real names here, and I’ve shared who my rebbein are many, many times. Take a look at my posts; it’s no secret. I don’t know why you’re into ad hominem issues – well, it might have something to do with the indefensible practices and beliefs that i rant about on here. Rather than at least try to counter with sources, like AAQ, you’d rather attack me as a person, so good luck with that! I suppose you’ll also try to find my school and try to get me fired because you don’t like my hashkofos – good luck with that too! The school knows me very well and isn’t really concerned with what i write in an anonymous forum, but you clearly are.
As for how i put things to children – not every fact can be told as it is to every person. I never, ever put down their parents or other teachers. Very rarely does a child say “but we do this differently in my house”, and when it happens, it’s usually a difference of minhahim which i explain. Sometimes a kid says “but I do this”, which is a big difference, and this happens a lot. I’ll show him the sources and gently tell him that we’re all here to learn, and that i myself learn new halachos very often which i was not aware of.
It’s kinda like how the Arizal writes that goyim have no tzad tov at all, and how chazal say that they’re not called adam, etc… It doesn’t change the halacha that mandates that we treat people with kovod habrios and don’t steal from them, etc..
Whatever the truth is about the majority or a plurality of MO people, it has nothing to do with how i treat people in real life situations. It might be a bit of a brain exercise of going outside of your comfort zone, but it is possible to have a negative view of a society or a community and still treat them as human beings and as yidden, Hashem’s children, who He loves more than anything.
