I remember one teacher threatened one of my classmates with that. She was actually the first or second to get married-maybe less than 2 months after we came back from seminary. I heard many other threats, or teachers did stupid things, but I know looking back, they thought that they were doing teh right things. Or they lost it, when they shouldn’t have. Rather than bashing our teachers (many work very hard, take work seriously, and are not in this for the money), we should work on instituting better training for our teachers. I’m okay after my experiences, but some of my classmates aren’t. I don’t like blaming, but I wonder if that is why some of them no longer associate with ‘very frum’ crowds
