Reply To: PRENUPTUALS in FRUM circles??!

YU has halachic prenups endorsed by the rabbanim mentioned above. I actually reviewed them and think they SHOULD be endorsed. It saves BOTH sides from any horrible situation without making one party feel like trash. It is understandable why some would like to have a prenup signed before marriage, so that their assets are saved in case a situation arises. Yet it has to be done with consideration to the other party. Unfortunately, in my friend’s horrible situation, the prenup was completely unfair and disrespectful to her. Her family was insulted!

At the end of the day, she is probably better off without them.

And yes, “Nechomah” I also believe that much of the shidduch crisis may be attributed to crazy parents. Some parents are selfish and completely take over their child’s emotions and tell the child that their broken heart can be mended…. All because of MONEY, an unfair prenup and a unwillingness to work together!!
