    Dear,Rebbe please fogive my pennmanship i mean no disrespect for any misspellings.I hope these e/mails bring you joy . All my life since i could read ive listened and studied scripture.My mother GOD bless her had a white leather Bible wth a wooden mayby ceder im not sure case it sat in perfectly i still when i let myself think about it remember the beatifull wood rosin smell it had.My mother GOD bless her again had it always sitting on a side table that also although not choise wood i think but was probobly hand made by my Grandfather who was born in Germany i belive from what i heard my Father on earth say while shmoozing at his parents house where we would go to have dinner almost every day of the week.Well anyways at around twlve i started down the wrong road and did not to say the least live a perfect life . Even through my twenteis and thirties i got in trouble and you know those i was incacerated with ,not all but some were the most GOD fearing believing men and woman ive met out of alot alot of people ive met.My question is is ther a quarilation betwween people who go to jail and those close to GOD.Sincerly Erik Glenn Richter.

    How do you intercede when you see that certain friends are not having a positive influence and maybe even a negative one. Your child is expressing frustration and you are at a loss in how to separate the kids.   Speaking about 7, 8, 9 yr olds

    My child became a rabbi.  I had a nervous breakdown/. Now I never hear from him.  He ignores all my attempts to connect.  I don't even know what my grandchildren look like.   I am 3000 miles from them. I cry most days.  I tried my best for my family.  I encouraged him to go to yeshiva.  I will probably die alone.  I tried my best to be good

    I NEVER listen to parenting classes because its usually my way or the highway, extremely subjective etc. l listened to this shiur because of the parsha aspect. Thank you for this gorgeous broad stroke on parenting, leadership and the superior Rashi/Ibn Ezra perspective. Shabbat shalom.

    Thank you so much for the treasure chest of valuable information and sparkling insights that you taught in the Vayakhel/P’kudei shiur. It was an inspirational , Stradivarian presentation.
    A thought: could the finger ring and the arm band represent “hands-on” parenting?

    how to get rid of that feeling of "self" when parenting (nachas machine, etc.) i feel like i am very quick to judge and think what they should be and could be and constantly look at them thru the lense of what they should be

    The Chinese way is for kids to obey even stern upbringing

    And this childrearing philosophy, which might produce smart students who excel in academics, also produces adults who don't question totalitarianism, dictatorship, communism, censorship, etc.
