The Mistake Even Loving Grandparents Make

from Connecting Jewish Grandparents · host Sharona Hassan - Grand Plan

In this week's Torah portion, Beha'alotecha, Miriam and Aaron join together to discuss their brother, Moses. Their conversation may be one of the Torah's earliest examples of what family therapists call triangulation: when two family members unite around concerns about a third person rather than speaking directly with them. What can grandparents learn from this ancient family dynamic? How does triangulation show up in relationships with adult children, children-in-law, spouses, siblings, and even machatanim? And what does the Torah teach us about moving from criticism and assumption toward respect, communication, and repair? If you've ever struggled with family conflict, difficult conversations, boundaries with adult children, relationships with in-laws, Jewish grandparenting, or creating a lasting family legacy, this episode offers timeless wisdom from the Torah.
