"I still don’t feel that it is important and hashkafically appropriate for my kids to read a detailed column about marriage"
I enjoy history very much, especially when it’s brought to life in your profiles of special figures of Am Yisrael that you regularly feature. But I especially love the letters that inevitably get sent to you — often by people who had a personal connection to the main subject, or someone else mentioned — and then flesh out another detail of the story or time period.
The articles are always inspiring and the follow-up letters only add to the richness and inspiration. Thank you to all the readers who contribute and write in!

I’m writing in regard to the new column “Made in Heaven” by Rabbi Shafier. I was very shocked and bothered that Mishpacha magazine also started following and giving in to the new trends of publicizing matters that were never considered appropriate to be discussed publicly in the heimishe magazines. I recently stopped buying other magazines for this very reason.
I know that you also cater to a very heimish crowd, and I’m sure that there are many readers who have this concern as well. I don’t feel comfortable for my kids, especially my boys, to be reading this material every week.
