A Head StartThe food that a child eats and the air that he breathes have an important impact on a child. Likewise, the actions of parents have an effect on the child. Here, however, we learn that even the parents’ conduct before the child is born play an important role in the child’s development.
A Head Start
Disc 127, Program 507
Event Date: 18 Elul 5742 - September 06, 1982
The food that a child eats and the air that he breathes have an important impact on a child. Likewise, the actions of parents have an effect on the child. Here, however, we learn that even the parents’ conduct before the child is born play an important role in the child’s development. As the Talmud relates, Kimchis, a woman who declared “The walls of my house have not seen my hair,” merited to be the mother of seven high priests, because her hair was never exposed. A lesson in the importance of modesty in the home and on the street, and a reminder that parents’ actions have an effect on their children that lasts into adulthood. |
