Reply To: Sara Richard Remarks About Changes In Shidduchim

re: I honestly wonder how many parents can keep their boys afloat another 3, 5, 10 years, while still paying full or close to it tuition for their younger ones and fulfilling all their other obligations.

tzippi, not a problem, just take out a second/third/fourth mortgage, like girls’ parents have been doing. Do you have a choice, if you want your daughters/sons married? Oh, you don’t have a house? You daughters would have to marry working boys, and your sons will have to go to work, anyhow. Tragic.
