My daughter's experience was horrific. She lost her brand new phone while on the trip. Or she misland it. She reported it to the leader. The leader totally ignored her.
One fo the rich girls lost her phone and reported it to the leader. Everything came to a halt while the phone was looked for. It was found.
Her trip was horrible because of the snob value of the kids on it, and the leaders who paid attention to the rich kids but not to my daughter who is also on the spectrum.
Why my daughter lay dying in a Houston hospital, they asked her what religion she was, and if she would like to see anyone. She said she was Jewish. There was only an Orthodox rabbi in Houston. He asked her if she was Orthodox. She said no. He walked away without another word.
There are 15 million Jews in the world. You say you want to move the Jewish world forward. Well, perhaps you should just let it go.
I am not impressed.
