The left of what? The north pole?
I didn’t know we had a phsyical location. We should make our parties there. On the north pole I mean. Or whatever is left to there. How much left is more left? Is more a crptic number or something? Like 3.5% more to the left then we were before. Or perhaps 3.5467 inches to the left.
Or centimiteres.
Or planets!
Omigosh did we just move to the planet left of the north pole?
What does a man’s role have to do with herring?
My brother and father do.
Segulos don’t work. People do.
I’m a teenage female and I’m NOT chassidish and I like herring so ha!
Seriously? PLEASE PLEASE MODS!!
Can you change mine. Do something interesting and weird. Surprise me.
Decide on a place and tell yourself it will be the last place you look. It will be there. 😉
The expression LOR was formed before there were 50 rabbis on every block. No one changed the expression since. If you want-go ahead and try to make a revolution. In any case, there are questions you could ask about a TOR. Is he trusted? How do you know?….and so on…
Taking ut the garbage involves issues in a possibility in getting dirty.
But it’s not her responsibility. If they are 3 adults living in a huge house they shouldn’t be making such a big mess. It seems like most of the rooms aren’t normally in use so it doesn’t make a difference if she lives at home or not.
Well if she is that busy why should she be pitching in for other people. The way I see it if she pitches in her share than it’s fine. What if she didn’t live at home? There would still be the same ammount of work and the mom would have to pay for a cleaning lady anyway. If she’s pitching in enough that her presence isn’t adding to the balagan so it doesn’t matter!!!
A good compromise is having the post high school girl make sure her room is clean, the area she works in is clean. To be responsible for her messes. When she uses something she puts it away, when she works in the kitchen she cleans up after herself. When she involves in a project/or does something with other family members such as eats dinner, plays a game-she cleans up heer share.
What is this need for a cleaning lady?!? She should also have to pitch in a bit on shabbos to clean up after the younger ones since that’s when she has a it of a break. Shabbos is long enough to pitch in for an hour or two and get in extra sleep in the USA
I just wonder how many of the people posting on this thread actually
1) Live in Israel
2) If don’t will be convinced by this thread to move.
yytz- Listen. I know first hand it’s a major culture shock. Coming to Israel as an adult with your family is different. You rely on your husband, and aren’t creating who you want to be. For a teen it’s much harder. Everything was different-the fashion, language, culture, food. Girls have a different mentality, talk differently….
yytz- that’s wonderful for kids growing UP here-but transitioning is really hard. Unless you know people personally you can’t even understand it! I know a family who made aliyah- one of their teens tried to commit suiced twice and had to be sent back to a mental hospital in the US to recover for a year or 2. Another of of their kids got PTSD and all her hair fell out. I know a few girls that got lost to arab marriages too. Of course eretz yisroel is amazing and all and that should motivate people to become frummer-
If you lose everything in your life that you love- your friends, school, extended family, city, malls, all at once it IS very traumatic!
One must have crazy emunah to hold on and hope this is all for the best instead of lashing out at the world. I don’t even want to get started about some situations I almost got into but did not only because I trusted in Hashem. But it is so much easier to give up, lash out, and etc when you are ripped apart from all that is dear to you at such a pivotal stage in your life.
Do you know hwo many kids run away and then fall trap to arabs and no one will know since everyone thinks they have just run away for a while and are at friends. You think it’s publicly announced every time someone falls prey? Is it announced every time one marries a goy? Or has cancer?
Teens that are confused, alone, hate themselves, their family, the world, Hashem, and just want someone who cares can easily fall prey to arabs. Unfortunately I know of many. And such people may be lost phsyically not only spiritually. I don’t even know if some of these people are still ALIVE.
If you lose your kid to a goy-it hurts. But losing your kid to an abusive manipulative guy assuring you will never see your child again-that is way worse.
In any case, let’s stop about the arab/goys. So many kids who make aliyah try to commit suicide, go on drugs, and much worse….
ASK A RAV. ASK YOUR KIDS!!!!
Whoever said going OTD in israel is better than is the US is wrong
1. Your kid has a 50 percent more chance of going OTD in Israel! If you didnt move theres a good chance they wouldn’t even DREAM or WANT to go OTD. Even if you have the frummest kid with a great family and friends….who really loves Hashem-you still got a good chance she/he will go OTD if thrown into a new country during his/her teens years.
2. Marrying a Jew….-right. Uh, do you want to know the percentage of the frum kids lost to arab marriages that made aliyah versus not? It is considerably higher….
Kids feeling alone and looking for someone-not knowing how the country works can easily by manipulated by an arab pretending to be a Jew. If they go there they are almost seriously lost forever. Not just spiritually….
They have a few places in the kosel tunnels, including the spot closest to the kodesh hakedoshim. Near the kotel they have a place where there are actual stones f the beis hamikdash that were thrown over the outer wall-you can daven there. Also, there is a mini kosel in the old city.
I personally would only do those things on the kosel plaza. That is okay. But past the fence my phone is on silent and I rarely see people doing these things.
I live in Eretz Yisroel and its the best place EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!11
But seriously, think it through when you have teens. There’s a 50 percent chance I would of gone OTD, true- I didn’t. I managed to almost finish high school without doing anything crazy. (Still got a few months left..) but seriously. You can destroy people this way.
Ask a Rav. That’s a legit reasons to stay in chul.
The real question is, why didn’t you move before you had kids?
1 million dollar case is…
You will be trapped forver!! Mwah hahahahahahahah
Because it’s looks disgusting. A lady should not smoke, first of all it’s bad for anyone, men or women, and second of all it looks so street/gangster like for girls and it’s disgusting. Why would you want to ruin your family?
You need to be healthy enough to get pregnant, and I don’t think you should/can smoke when pregnant. That’s a problem if you plan on having like 10 kids..
Many reasons.
Is Bnos Avigail academic?
As a student or a teacher? Or are you joking?
He said he didn’t pay for it.
Take on something and Pray.
Plus most people stick to HS’s in their city.
My teacher is israeli and doesn’t know any american sems except for Chedvas and Chana Kitov’s new seminary.
