A rabbi is meant to provide RELIGIOUS advice. He will NOT say it’s ok to do this. |
Ok, live in your narrow little world. Have fun being a bitch. |
| A rabbi isn’t going to provide general advice. He isn’t a therapist. He’s a religious leader. |
I KNOW!!!!! But maybe he will have better advice for HOW TO DEAL with mom than you idiots! Super Jew OP may actually listen to her rabbi, since she's not listening to anyone here. I swear this is the most obtuse group of posters I've ever seen on DCUM. |
What do you think a rabbi would say??? They’re not therapists. |
|
OP has said multiple times what she’s going to do.
You can’t read. |
Now you're being deliberately obtuse. Rabbis give advice on all kinds of things and you know it. And, besides, this IS a religious issue. A rabbi can help explain better than anyone why prayers over meals and Judaism don't mix. |
Umm, I don’t think that issue is under contention. Maybe OP’s mom needs to meet with the rabbi. She’s the confused one. |
Is the whole Tribe this obtuse? I realize it's the mother who is confused, but maybe the rabbi can advise the OP on how to explain it and how to get through to her. |
I sort of doubt it, but ok. |
+100 The advice is to tell mom they aren’t saying grace, and to rinse and repeat. (Are you OP?) |
| Is OP going to come back in the new year to tell us what her plan is? |
I’ve already told you many, many times. I am continuing to tell her we’re not saying grace when she’s not here. My plan is to continue to do that until she stops bringing it up. I think I’ve said this at least a dozen times. |
|
Your mom’s grace isn’t very catholic. She is imposing her own “spirituality” on you.
If she is searching and mixed up, but not seeking resources outside her own head, I feel bad for her. But I can see why she is frikkin’ annoying. Plus, she is showing disrespect for the OPs childhood. Nothing we can say to OP will matter, since all OP wants is for her to stop talking. |
Has the advice been anything but getting her to shut up? |
