Sections → Family → Marriage and RelationshipsDear Dr. Yael: Do you really believe that the Internet is the reason why the divorce rate is so high among young couples? This may be so in some cases, but what about the fact that many singles are pressured to get married at a young age despite not having any idea what they are looking for in a mate? And add to that the fact that many are pressured to make a decision about marriage after dating for a very short period of time.

Depression: Not A Hopeless Malady
Posted on: May 10th, 2013
Sections → Family → Marriage and RelationshipsDear Dr Yael: During a shiur on Pirkei Avos, a rabbi admired by my husband spoke about how some people begrudge others certain things.

How About Husband Schools? – A Reaction
Posted on: May 2nd, 2013
Sections → Family → Marriage and RelationshipsInstead of putting it all on the men, saying for example that they are "trained" by "society" to feel, think and behave as they do, perhaps you could have encouraged these self-described happily-married women to look in the mirror and try to figure out why their husbands seem to act insensitively toward them.
