Mom's planning for over the top b’nai mitzvah celebrations results in a culture of exclusion. Same group is tone deaf and some have even posted in this thread too. Kids are learning from parents here. Unless you belong in that kind of group, just avoid Tilden. Parents encourage bullying and exclusion. |
No one should have parties unless they invite everyone. |
And everyone should get a trophy, because heaven forbid someone get hurt by feeling left out. |
Of course not. But why the sweatshirts etc? What positive comes from that? |

Here you , another example of tone deaf parents in Tilden. You can invite 5 or 50, no one cares. Problem is advertising your invitation list. It's disgusting to broadcast who was excluded. No one can save Tilden with community like this. |
Very true! |
Why the sweatshirts? Because these parents are provincial, tacky losers who are terrified that their little Sarah's bat mitzvah might be seen by their fake friends and neighbors as less lavish than that of Becky next door. Their 'positive' is keeping up with the Rosenbergs. Nothing mysterious about that. |
I’m surprised to read these complaints about Tilden. My child from a different MS participated at XC meets and soccer games at Tilden, and I was impressed with how many kids came to watch the meet and especially games and cheer their friends on. Seemed like a nice group involved in both playing and watching both sports. |
+1 Keep up with Rosenbergs crowd is huge here. |
Getting more than a whiff of antisemitism here. ![]() |
Wow, pulling that card to avoid getting called out for exclusionary behaviors just because community is Jewish? No one bats an eye if some one writes keeping up with Jones. Some introspection is needed and I am saying that as part of community. |
The Joneses haven't been persecuted for 5,000 years. But you do you. |
The Welsh actually have been persecuted and colonized for that period. |
So typical.
Shaming kids on public social media - not a big deal Wearing a sweatshirt from someone's Bat Mitzvah - travesty and everything wrong with Tilden This about sums up how a$$ backwards this school is. |
