NOVEMBER 1993 CHESHVANIKISLEV 5754 VOLUME 11, NUMBER 3 FROM RABBI WEBER , 'I t takes an entire village to raise a child, but the village isn't there for the children anymore." (Indianapolis Newsweek's August 2, 1 993.) Prosecutor Jeff Modisett, quoted in story on teenage violence, cover At one time or another, it happens to all of us. Sitting in a serv ice, or during our yearly "usher duty," we ask a youngster to be quiet. The child glares at us and says, "Why should I? You're ,. not my parent." The miscreant resumes talking with a smu� grin, as we wonder how to answer this obvious truth which, somehow, seems to miss the point. I would like to suggest a response; one which gets right to the point, and which may produce unexpected results for the talker, the "shush-er," and even for our congregation. When a child rejects your request with, "You're not my parent," respond by saying, "Yes, I am your parent. Now be quiet, young man (young woman)." I know it sounds strange, but we really do have grounds for claiming to be the parents of every child in our congregation, and every child who comes to visit here. Long ago, the rabbis stated, "Kol Yisrael areivim zeh ba-zeh" are re "Every Jew is responsible for every other Jew." So on a basic, Jewish level, we are telling the truth. We sponsible for each other: for each other's safety, each other's well-being, and even for each other's behavior. (If I seem to be hinting that this applies to adults, too, please allow me to save that for another article.) If dren misbehave - and all the children in our community are ours - then our chil it is our job to set them straight. There is another reason, too; one which is especially important at Rodeph Torah. Since we continually speak of our community as a family, then those who join us are part of our family. And while that would technically make us more like aunts, uncles and grandparents than actual parents, the principle still holds: the kids in our congregation are not strangers; and we are not strangers to them. We are all part of several large families - a temple family, a Jewish family, a human family - and so, in more ways than one, we are their parents. Now, please, a word about moderation. Let's remember that our congregation welcomes children to every serv ice, and that we do not ask them to be something they are not. Kids are kids, and we should not expect them to (continued...) , November 1993 Temple Rodeph Torah NEWS be miniature adults. If you are considering the use of this ''parental power," ask yourself first: Am I calling for behavior which is reasonable to expect from them, or am I trying to turn Rodeph Torah into a mausoleum? There are congregations which require absolute silence in the sanctuary, and which strongly recommend that children not exist during services. That is not our way, and I am glad. The sounds of children are beautiful, and precious, and Jewish; we even pray to hear them when a couple gets married and creates a family. "May the sounds of children fill our homes, as they fill the streets of Jerusalem." If children's sounds are good enough for Jerusalem, they are certainly good enough for our little shul, too. Our concern as "community parents" should not be for the littlest peep a kid can make. Instead, I hope we will focus on the sounds and activities which distract them - and us - from the duties of prayer and study during a service. When teenagers play around during a service, or pay no attention when "the other kid" is reading from the Torah, then it is our job as parents to make them stop. When a youngster gives a ten-minute rendition of "The Song That Never Ends," it is time for us to suggest that the song either end or continue silently. And when a child - any child - leaves the sanctuary and spends the service tearing pictures and signs off the Religious School walls, it is up to us to teach them how to behave in a temple. What will the child's real parents say, when they learn their offspring have been chastised by a stranger claim ing parental rights? I believe most of them will understand, and appreciate the concern which prompted it. A few will complain, and I will be happy to take these calls personally. I would love to reach the point where every temple member knew that we would all watch out for each other's children, and that sending our children to TRT would be like sending them to a tremendous family circle meeting. As for guests to our congregation? I guess they will have two options: either to understand, or not to understand. Those who understand may one • • day turn into members, and become part of the family themselves; those who don't understand will think we are all a little weird, which is all right, too. In a world where few people care about others, I would not mind at all if we were known as the congregation that was weird enough to care. So, mazal tov to all of us. We have just given birth to 730 healthy, happy Jewish children. They are ours to raise, to teach, to help and to love. They are our responsibility. They are our children. And we don't even have to put them through college!

Thanks also to Sisterhood who shared their coffee and desserts with us that cold and damp Tuesday night. Give the Gift of Life! The Men's Club will hold a Blood Drive on November 2nd (Election Day) from 6:00-9:00 p.m. at the temple.

".. and if one has saved a single soul, it is as though one had saved a whole world. " (Mishna) Shalom, Neal Finkelstein SISTERHOOD "Thanks for calling... "; "Thanks for thinking of me... "; "Wow, thanks for calling." Yes, all those phone calls paid off. On Tuesday evening, September 28th, 35 new TRT women carne to hear what Sisterhood is all about - what Sisterhood has to offer, and hopefully what they could do for Sisterhood and their new temple family - to get involved! • I really felt so good while I was making those calls, hoping to make a difference. Sure, we had sent invitations, but I was hoping that a call from the president of the organization would let them know just how much we needed them and wanted them to come and meet us - to come and get involved - and they carne, and they signed up for committees, and they promised to get involved. It is amazing what a phone call can do! My thanks to Andrea Block and Donna Hirsch for making the evening so upbeat and festive, and my very spe cial thanks to Sheryl Cooper for being "me," since I had to attend a Middletown Board of Education meeting (where a few, but vocal, residents really made me question the future of education in this state). Thanks also to Leslie Berlin, Rachel Pachter, Maxine Relkin and Lois Korman. In November, having invited our friends from Hadassah, we will be hosting Rabbi Shira Stem's book discussion - Tuesday evening, November 16th, at 8 p.m. (note the change).

Shalom, Gloria Russin A LETTER FROM THE MARLBORO FOOD PANTRY Dear Rabbi Weber, Again the amount of food collected surpassed our wildest dreams. How can we ever thank all of your congregants for their overwhelming support of the food pantry? Friday Night's food was sent to the Wicker Church for their pantry. The remainder of Friday's food was sent to the Morganville Senior Center on Wicker Place. Saturday's food was divided between our pantry and the Samari tan Center. All the food has been distributed already. Your continued support over the past three years has really made the difference. Happy New Year to all!

But remember, Elijah doesn't deliver pizza for free, so be sure to bring $2 and a can of food for the hungry. Page 7 (continued... ) November 1993 Temple Rodeph Torah NEWS Our next action-packed event is a Bowling Match against the Temple Men's Club. This event gives us a chance to embarrass a bunch of middle-aged men who will be obligated to throw us a party when we beat them. Our defeat of the so-called "Men's Club" will take place in November, so watch for details. We will also have another Movie Night in November. Yes, we have scheduled a RTSY SHUL-IN! For those of you who are uninitiated in the art of Shul-Ins, it is ba sically an all-night party where you can get to know people and just have a great time. Our Shul-In will be in December.
