Yated Shidduch Forum 11/5/21: What Information can be Disclosed When Receiving a Call About a Shidduch?
Question:
My son was recently redd a shidduch, and I called a friend of the girl, who answered all my questions. Then, at the end of the conversation, she said, “I am sure you know that one of the siblings has an emotional issue.”
What, as a parent, am I supposed to do with a comment like that? And how much, in your opinion, should it play a role in looking into the shidduch further?
[Interestingly, while I appreciated knowing as much information as possible, I almost resented that the girl shared this information without me even asking about it.]
What are your thoughts?
