I’ll throw in my 2 cents. I did not read the letter and can only comment on the points quoted here.

SR: 1- To girls parents- let girls mature before they date …

ME: This should also be to the girls. dont date until you are mature, not because some of your friends are already dating. Same should be said to the parents of boys as well as boys.

SR: 2- To boys parents- look for mature girls …

ME: Shouldnt the boys be looking for mature girls? They have to marry the girls, not his parents.

SR: 3- Don’t look for brand name Yeshivahs and Seminaries….no bearing on quality of person…

Same can be said of high schools, no bearing on the quality of education provided. Perhaps we wouldnt havean issue of girls not getting accepted into schools (wait, thats another “issue”).

SR: 4- Support should be undertaken by both sides in partnership…

ME: A comment on a partnership. Isnt it always undertaken by at least two sides? Is it possible to have a one sided partnership?
