First I thought I was alone, it was my pain my suffering, maybe I did not raise my children right, maybe I did not get involved enough in the yeshivas, their education. Maybe I was too stressed trying to pay the bills earn a living that I neglected my children. Maybe it is entirely my fault.
Then I spoke to this parent quietly and then I spoke to that one, and I realized it is not just me there are many who suffer as I do. But we all suffer quietly blaming our selves. There are many children being destroyed and ruined. And by whom? By the ones we entrust their education to. By the ones we pay with our hard earned money, by the ones that are called “educators and roish hayeshivas” and so on.
Op-Ed: The Destroyers
I sit by my computer in tears, thinking to myself is this really true? Is this really happening to me? To us? Take “me” out of the picture. Let’s talk about the ‘us’.

Last week workers installed cameras outside and a security system inside the Gan Camarillo Preschool in Old Town.
Aid Alert Security of Westlake Village is charging the preschool $5,000—about $3,000 off the retail price—for the system.
“The reason we're doing it is because it's wrong,” owner Ed Nuki said of the Nazirelated vandalism that appeared at the preschool three times last year.
The preschool was hit in July, August and December with Nazirelated graffiti, said Camarillo Police Detective Pete Seery.
“I just can't believe it happened here. But it's everywhere, I guess,” Seery said at the preschool last week while offering the workers advice on the security installation.
Jonathan Samuel Latino of Camarillo pleaded guilty to committing a hate crime and felony vandalism for the August incident at the preschool and elsewhere in town.
In April, he was sentenced to a year in jail and a $1,100 fine.
Investigation into the other incidents is ongoing, Seery said.
