Tuition Crisis
September 25, 2017 1:40 pm

I have a college degree and still struggle to pay tuition. The answer has to be more than just saying that the next generation needs to be taught a trade. While that is true, that alone will not solve the problem.

The Mantra - To Be A Shliach
September 24, 2017 11:32 pm

Extremely insightful from three very well versed and knowledgeable Rabbonim/Chassidim. I only take umbrage to one comment Rabbi B made concerning the message of shlichus as a vocation growing up. He mentioned becoming shluchim wasn’t the main message. I disagree. As bochurim/shluchim in yeshiva, we were constantly reminded the ultimate goal was to be “shluchim in the Rebbe’s army”. Every simcha from bris, bar/bas mitzvah through sheva brochos, brochos to be a shliach are constantly espoused. Peer pressure then was huge and it is exactly this message that has left so many questioning there place in Chabad annals if they… Read more »

Internet

How do i explain to my 10 year old why he shouldn’t use the Internet?

Very good discussion
September 24, 2017 5:56 pm

I would like to point out 2 things.
1. The Alter Rebbe had mesiras nefesh for Lubavitch shchita, and today – when it is easily accessible, it usually reflects on the general kashrus in the home.

2. The Rebbe is the one who told chassisim to carry a picture of the Frierdiker Rebbe, and to look at it when needing a boost. A picture of the Rebbe is very important in addition to learning and doing the Rebbe’s inyanim.

Thank you!!!

Learnt a lot

Very appreciative of this. Please more often!!! Very much needed. Was def right choice of rabbis who complement one another. Very impressive. The large vs small family issues still trouble me greatly. It’s complicated:(
The erva and txnius exp helped me … finally clarity in 90 seconds.

Tuition crisis
September 24, 2017 4:33 pm

The tuition crisis is severe. The parents who are not blessed with a large income face shame and the feeling of being alone. I believe the Rabbonim need to serve their communities and resonate the Rebbe’s words and possibly help find ways with the school so they can brainstorm to find solutions. The Rebbe wanted his institutions to be accepting of all sincere students and parents who are willing to follow the rules. There is a sicha from the Rebbe that lavish spending in a school should not take place over rejecting students who cannot afford the prices of school.… Read more »

The tuition crises get worse by each year and needs to be dealt with. yes we must have Emunah etc. by the schools must have Rabbanim etc who they are accountable to … they must look into the size of teh family, the cost of living etc.
if not its run like a private business… yes parents need to pay tuition but not on teh expense of their kids food and cloths etc.

BEAUTIFUL

THANKS FOR SHARING REALLY ENJOYED WATCHING

Kol Hakavod!!

The Moderator, The Rabbonim. You were all right on target!

Each one coming with their own unique talents and strengths facing real contemporary issues and in my opinion dealt with them superbly.

This is also a great tribute to the LA community for facing up to the realities of the challenges we face and the respect of their Rabbanim to want to have some clarity.

I unfortunately can not see this happening in my community which is a large Anash community but I a have definitely gained much from what you have done in yours.

Kol HaKavod!!!

The article says:

“community members submitted their questions anonymously in advance via email”

If the questions were sent in via email then they weren’t anonymous since the email I’d identifies the sender.
