“My daughter is dating a guy but my husband and I have some reservations. Should we speak up?” “Our son never discusses his relationships with us. Is that normal?” “How financially secure does a young couple need to be before marriage?”
These questions and many more will be addressed on Wednesday, October 24, at 8:00 p.m. at a fascinating community symposium presented by YUConnects at Congregation B’nai Yeshurun in Teaneck. “When Children Date: The Complex Role of Parents” will highlight contemporary scenarios affecting family relationships. Panelists include Rabbi Yaakov Neuburger, Rosh Yeshiva, RIETS and rabbi of Congregation Beth Abraham; Rabbi Moshe Tzvi Weinberg, a rebbe at YU and mashpia at Congregation Beth Abraham; and Mrs. Mindy Eisenman, staff connector at YUConnects. These panelists will focus on common issues in a lively conversation moderated by Rabbi Binyamin Krohn, mashgiach ruchani at YU and rabbi of YI of Teaneck, and Dr. Efrat Sobolofsky, director of YUConnects.
