Kibbud Av v'Em #4 - What (Not) To Do With An Annoying Parent

The Rambam and the Raivid differ as to whether a child, in extreme circumstances confronted with unreasonable demands by their parents, may run away. Their dispute appears to reflect different readings of the story of Rav Assi leaving his mother and her outrageous demands to go and live in Israel. We read this difficult story closely and suggest interpretations of relevance to everyone in their relations with their parents Source sheet here - it is recommended to read the story in the gemara at least once alongside listening to the audio. THINK is sponsored by Dr. Alan Wecker and family, in loving memory of his dear uncle and   aunt, Yechiel and Chaya Kleinman, ז״ל and we were honoured to be joined by the Weckers. We begin the class with a dedication to his uncle and aunt, remarkable educators who lived in Tel Aviv
