  • When a Chassidus splits...

    What’s the Halacha:
    Can a child be thrown out of school because of a parent switching affiliations?
    Is there an obligation to the child, or is a Yeshivah like any other private corporation that can do what it wants?
    Can a wife be fired because of her husband’s actions?
    If parents sign a document not to change affiliations, is it binding on the child?
    How much damage is caused to a child when he/she is thrown out of school?
    Historically, what effect does a Chassidus splitting have on family structure?

  • 11/13/21 – Shiur 345 – Should wives be submissive and subservient to their husbands?

    Is the “surrendered wife” a Torah-concept? Why should the wife surrender, and not the husband?  Is “extreme-giving” normal and healthy? What should Kallah teachers be teaching? Should the husband or the wife make the financial decision when there’s a disagreement? Should a wife say anything when the husband is making bad decisions?
