Water Main Break Shuts Down Mosdos Day Care
CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — A water main break forced the evacuation of the Mosdos Day Care Center on Lefferts Avenue earlier today, at around 2:30pm this afternoon.
Parents received calls from Mosdos that they need to come and pick up their kids.
The water pipes were reported to have busted on the top floor, and quickly flooded the entire building, forming puddles as deep as 2 inches in some places. FDNY responded and made sure the building is secured and tried to remedy the problem.
The administration said the day care center will be closed tomorrow and they are not sure if they will be ready to reopen on Wednesday.
shop till u drop!
oh no i guess those mothers that keep their kids till 6 will have to be forced to spend quality time with their children!
friend
I saw the kids out in the cold I was wondering
awacs
Uh, water mains aren’t located on the top floor of a building, right? Don’t they run under the ground?
Heard It In The Mikvah Once
Water water everywhere but not a drop to drink.
A hard working Father
shop till u drop: it may be easy for you to talk, as you must be lucky that your husband makes a lot of money and you can afford to stay home with your kids. But unfortunately not everybody is so lucky and some families both parents work very hard to try and support their family. Many of those families do rely on the wonderful care that their children receive at Mosdoth Day care. They can at least have some piece of mind, while they are hard at work knowing that their children are being well taken care of, by the wonderful teachers there who do their utmost to care for the children in a loving fashion.

shop till your drop: that was obnoxious. who raised you?
working parent
I agree with the hard working father. Many of the families in the neighborhood need both parents to work and even in this case many struggle with providing to there families. Any mother would love to spend time with her kids. Do you think it is easy to work come home tiered and then attend to every need of the household (eg kids, food, cleaning and etc.). Do no judge anyone until you are in there shoes
To shop till you drop
May be you dont have to work! becouse you are getting all the goverment help.Good for you if you are but please have respect for those who don’t qualify and both parents have to work. Don’t juge on peaple.
to Shop till you drop
What a chutzpah, judging other people! Were you ever outside the Day Care Center between 3:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. on any given day? If you were, you would see cars lining up to pick up their children – a regular day just like all the other schools! Not only that, there are many mothers who if the “regular” school would mandate that children stayed in school longer, they would – so don’t go label parents because of the school that they chose.
A LOVING AND CARING MOTHER
SHOP TIL YOU DROP- HOW RUDE OF YOU TO SAY SUCH A THING!
Yasher Koach to the Working Mothers
Wow! Shop till you Drop thank you for the advice, and I am sure you chose the title name, because that is exactly what you do with your poor whining children in tow while you try on this dress and those shoes. Let me teach you a lesson. Quality time is just that and not quantity which you imply. Now the next time you take your kids shopping for all those delightful beautiful things you strut around Crown Heights in, remember shopping for yourself is not quality children time. Hardworking parents who need the services of Day Care do not pull out the food stamp card nestled in their Gucci bag (and you don’t have to tell me how long it took you to find the perfect color), they actually go to work and earn their way. So while you are shopping, we are working and while you are spending, we are earning. Yasher Koach to all those working mother’s out there! You are an inspiration, and never let any weak minded person tell you otherwise.
Parent
IT WILL BE OPEN BEZRAS HASHEM TOMORROW, WEDNESDAY AS USUAL
The administration
School is open tomorrow, Wednesday, January 6 regular schedule. Problem was taken care of.
moving to another schuna
Shop to you drop is probably raising his rents all day, so so other people need 2 -3 jobs to pay them.
A LOVING MOTHER.:)
to the drop and shop “mother” if you could be called that way. i am a proud mother that sent her kids to the day care center b/c had to work!!! we spend quality time with our children more than what you think. for me quality time is to sit down on the floor and play lego or play doll house, or going outside taking my girls to bike. when kids get to a certain age the quality time change a little b/c they want to be with their friend but we still spend quality time. The most important quality time we spend with the older is talking to them we have conversation about everything and anything and we make sure that our chinuch will be in a certain way that they won’t be judgememtal like you ARE!!!
I guess your parents didn;t spend quality time with you and i guess for you it’s such a pain spending quality time with your kids b/c you don’t know how to!! NOt your fault poor YOU!! if you want we mothers that send our kids to daycare center could take some of our time to show you how to spend quality time with your kids. Tell me is the nanny spending quality time with them. maybe your child is the one that run to the nanny calling her mama!!!
Such a shame to have to spend my time (instead of cooking and preparing delicious super for my gem) writing to a light headed mother that is now in a rush to get home from shopping and calling all the neighbor to try to find someone that will get her kids on time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
WE ARE PROUD TO BE WORKING MOTHER THAT SEND THEIR KIDS TO DAY CARE CENTER WE DO ALL WHAT WE COULD TO GIVE OUR CHILDREN THE BEST CARE AND CHINUCH. THAT YOU MOSDOS AND OHALEI SARAH TO BE HERE FOR US AND MORE IMPORTANT FOR OUR CHILDREN.
To yesher koach
You said this to point!
I am a working mother who has a child in the day care center good for her who shops around you are right that is not quality time at all all it is selfish peaple who all go on all the programs and has food stamps and golore……….
They just don’t understand us mothers.they thingk we just sit on the chairs and do nothing all day long.
Yes we do give our children the best chinuch and thank god we give them what they need too……..
GOOD LUCK TO THE SHOP TILL YOU DROP
To Shop Till You Drop:
You are so devoid of attention (obviously!) as you can only find comfort in your title name of “shopping till YOU DROP.” It may be good for you to put on those Gucci glasses and read what everyone wrote about you..don’t take too long finding it in your Prada bag! Oh, and where do you drop to????Think about that?
Question to the masses
I do not come with an opinion, but rather a question:
If a mother sends her child to school at 8:30 and picks up her 2-4 yr old child up at 6:00, assuming that the child goes to sleep at 8:00, by the time the child gets home, and the mother finishes up her house chores, how much time is the mother indeed spending with her child?
I don’t know who made the first comment, but, while it was somewhat rude, I think it touched upon a point to reflect on.
If a mother is indeed working that late, even if they ARE in financial trouble, does that justify it?
Based on the well-known premise that Hashem is the one who provides, a woman should ask a Rov if it is indeed permissible, under her specific circumstances for her to work that late at the expense of her children.
If it turns out that indeed the mother is forced to do other work, other than her main job – to be the Akeres Habayis, then, if Hashem put her in that position, Hashem will take responsibility.
BUT:
If you are a mother that works all day just to save up for a fancy house or car, you are no better than the shopaholic woman that made the first comment!
To Question to the Masses
Don’t tell me that just because a mother has her children home from 4-8 instead of 6-8 that she spends quality time with her children. It’s not about the time they come home, it’s about the priorities of the mother – the mother who wants to spend the time she has with her child will, and those that don’t won’t even if they are home with them ALL afternoon!!!!!!!!!!!
NEBACH !!!!!!!!!
I FEEL SO BAD FOR ”shop till your drop”
SHES OBVIOUSLY NOT FULLY THERE … BEST THING IS TO LEAVE HER ALONE
to shop till you drop.
Actually, if that is your unfortunate line of thinking, the mother who let’s her kids hang out in Mosdos, because she is otherwise not interested in spending quality time with her kid(s), may just as well find a babysitter to entertain her kid(s), due to the watermain break, so sorry to burst your little egotistical bubble, but in your case your calculations of one plus one does not equal to two.
