I am not trying to be rude and I didnt see if you answered

You have your standards and others have their standards. Its not for the publication to make the decision whose standards to follow, its yours, if you approve let it in your house, otherwise send it to the recycling bin outside
If you are not Majoring in Biology or Chemistry you dont have to take them
Most colleges allow Psychology or Astronomy (along with Physics )
He was very good for Israel and its a shame he will have to go.
He is married to a Muslim

How does Matisyahu give bad influences?
In Florida South is North and North is South

When I was in 4th grade we watched the Movie Genocide at an assembly
<i> For those in favor of the Hat, lets say the roles were reverse and the Father insisted he wear the hat and the boy said it was Silly
What would you recommend
You asked the question, you should answer first. <i>
Kibbud Av
For those in favor of the Hat, lets say the roles were reverse and the Father insisted he wear the hat and the boy said it was Silly
What would you recommend
OP asked for advice
And my advice was kibud av trumps anything else
Getting along with your parents is very much helping him out
There is no Halacha to wear a black hat, but there is a Halacha to honor ones parents.
If you want to wear one in the future there will be plenty of time when you leave your parents house
If a Rebbe asks a boy to have a recess chavursa do you think the boy will turn it down for a game of soccer?
One has to worry about Peer Pressure to have a Chavrusa during recess, perhaps even from the Rabbaim.
I agree with Midwest. Online Degrees are esentially worthless and cost ALOT of money
I would add that going to a commuter college (Colleges with NO DORMS) also generally gets working people not interested so much in hanging out even during the day time.
And if you Live in NYC Brooklyn and Queens College have ALOT of religious jews who go there
Some relatives told me in their yeshivas they had Chavrusa’s during recess.
Schools should encourage some exercise during recess, not Chavrusa’s
do they also sell kosher food at the US Open (tennis) 🙂
Yes they do
<i> Just a bartenura blue bottle… As we call it in my house, Wine Soda. <i>
LOL
Ive seen many weddings where they put bottles of Wine on the table.
Also many weddings have a BAR and many charity diners serve wine on the table or have a bar
FYI They do not sell Kosher Food at Madison Square Garden.
The owners dont allow it for some reason
Since they sell Kosher Food with a hechsher, It would mean some Rabbaim are going there as well to make sure the Kashruth is good
On a side note
Alan Shlomo Veingrad was an offensive lineman for the Dallas Cowboys super bowl winning team in 1992, he became a Baal Teshivah via Chabad after he retired.
he is now a speaker telling of his becoming orthodox after football
You should never get involved with random quotes
One could easily quote ein taches ein , shein taches shein
PAC
from what you are saying, Lets say a man was not religious and married a GOY and had a daughter.
He then decided to be a BT and divorce his wife .
Are you saying he cannot hug his daughter, Just because she isnt jewish doesnt mean she isnt his daughter
<i> I hate to say this, but if my introduction to torah jewery was the yeshiva world coffee room, I would run the opposite way. The invective routinely directed towards others is horrible. <i>
This is more truth that you realize
You can find posts from the CR via google and people quote from the CR and get a very bad impression
Its very invigorating seeing 100,000 jews or so in the same place
The parade is not about the government, Thats why there is a concert / rally in central park.
It was started by people who disagree with the Israeli government
Always wondered why some schools do not participate in the parade.
I know people who suffered from it 🙁
Google it
Then how come my medical advice got deleted. if someone is going to ask a medical question, its proper to give medical advice
There is no freedom on Speech on WABC Radio or any other radio station.
Freedom of speech applies ONLY on public property. WABC has the right to allow or reject anything they please, its considered private property.
If there was freedom of speech as some have claimed, A worshipper of another religion would have the right to preach on your doorstep claiming “Freedom of Speech”
There was a Pro-Palestianian rally in Washington DC a few years ago ON SHABBOS
Neutrei Karta was there ON THE DAIS (They did not speak)
Even the Satmar excommunicated Neutrei Karta after going to Iran
Why not go to Harvard and have Seder with the Bostoner Rebbe
Ive been to Tishes where they served Beer
Would you have felt any different if he had ordered Wine (Assuming they had Kosher wine) or a cocktail (Pina Colada , Stawberry Dacquri etc)
In the Book by the Iranian woman
She gave an example of a Chassidic boy who did not want to wear a har. His father forced him to wear a hat and it became a struggle.
I suppose many called him “Off the Dereach” ,
Of course it became a self-fufilling prophecy and eventually the boy did go off the dereach.
But the Author also gave her own story, She was all gung ho about frumkite, she then went to Israel for a year in seminary and she was caught hanging with a bunch of friends , including a boy. Her rosh yeshiva ignored her the rest of the year and she was turned off. The rosh yeshiva of the seminary bascially threw her out because she was caught hanging with boys on Ben Yehuda St.
Teens need a little space, You need to know how much to give them, but some space is likely. You catch alot more flies with Honey than vinegar
Dogs are NOT Mutkzah, the Poop might be nolad though and cleaning up after the dog on shabbos might be a problem
Most people I know, the men are in Kollel all day and the women are WORKING
They are not away from the kids because they want “me” time, they are away from the kids because they need income to pay bills
Most people who have dogs usually grew up with dogs and and friends with dogs, so they want a dog.
Most frum familes did not grow up with one and most of their friends dont have one, so they dont have one.
Also many people with Dogs either have small familes or no kids. The Pets act as a surragate child (I know people who call their pets FUR-BABIES).
Frum people have 5-10 kids and do not have the energy to take care of a dog. Dogs are high Maintance pets (and high reward) there is just no energy to take care of one between the energy and the expense involved (Pet Food, Vet etc)
I know someone who had a rotwiller, the dog looked mean and had a mean bark.
You would go to their house , hear it bark and then it would come up to you.
It just wanted to be petted. It was the friendliest dog you’ve ever seen.
The only dogs that usually bite are dogs that are trained that way or abused.
If a dog is trained to be a family dog, they will be very friendly
I have read the book
The author of the book is an Iranian woman who went off the dereach and returned.
She then asked people who went off why they did
One can bury their heads in the sand and ignore problems or one can attempt to solve them
If your teen is on the dereach, then this doesnt apply to you, but for those who are or might be leaning in that direction then the system is a failure
I have a programmable thermonstat (not from Con Ed)
and the biggest headache is it runs on BATTERIES and if the batteries go dead, you get NO HEAT (I dont have central AC, but the AC wouldnt work either)
It always seems the batteries go dead on shabbos and a super cold shabbos that the house freezes (Ive seen the tempature in the house drop to the 40’s if I dont change the batteries ASAP)
Once in Shul the Rabbi allowed a blind man to bring his seeing eye dog (Ive never seen this before)
(This person was not a regular and ive never seen him before or since)
I am having someone do arts and crafts either jewerly or headbands with the girls
Well there will be many bonFIRES on May 21 at night
