In today’s Talmud page, Kiddushin 31, it states that the torah instructs one to honor your father before your mother, and fear your mother before your father because that is not the natural way a child would feel. Tablet Studios General Manager, and an honored and feared mother, Tanya Singer returns to discuss the different roles that parents have in the life of a child, and the ways that gender can sometimes play into those roles. What can we learn from the fact that when being called up to the Torah we are called by our fathers name, but when praying for healing, it is by our mothers? Listen and find out.
