The Little I Know, you made some good points. it is one thing to ask for Daas Torah in halachic issues, but the simple fact is that not every Rov, elarned though he may be, is qualified to give personal family advice. Just as every cardiologist is brilliant in his field, but may not be qualified to be an Orthodpedist, a rov may be a great Talmid Chochom, but not have wonderful insight on severly personal matters between a husband and wife. MANY DO, but just as many do not. That is why one must be careful in seeking out such advice from a Rov who IS competent in sucvh matters, ebcause the answers still have to come under an halachic aegis.
