2 things:
1- even though I don’t post much, this site is definitely addictive. Maybe I’ll join in some more conversations.
2- I thought when areivim said about having a healthy childhood, he was referring to marvelous middos machine. I consider myself having had a healthy upbringing being brought up on marv. middos machine. Otherwise how would I know not to tell a lie, how to share, not to be a ba’al gaavah, etc…. 🙂
