Doesn't look like it when he uses Legal Aid. But could be he owes someone favours and is keeping quiet about something in return for help. Yup. Quite likely. But all within the Jewish community and judiciary in Vienna.Frechdachsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-54980656198367212172014-07-30T20:15:00.247+03:002014-07-30T20:15:00.247+03:00Rabbi Eidensohn is a great guy who looks like he h...Rabbi Eidensohn is a great guy who looks like he has loads of experience and wisdom to back up what he posts on this informative blog.

Have they woken up to the fact, through reading the truth on this blog, that she is in fact the innocent party in this tragic case and the twins' father the evildoer? <br />Anyone who has met Beth and her sons and realized what a lovely young woman she is could not fail to believe everything she says about her relationship with the man who ruined his children's childhood and does not care an iota. A man of violence, lies and cruelty, who ran a terror regime in his own household. <br />Beth is very different. She exudes love. Her sons are so happy to be with her! We can only hope the judge sees fit to gradually increase the time Beth is permitted to spend with them. They come to life with her, sing and dance and do all they can to express with gestures the words they cannot say - because of all the trauma they've been forced by their father to endure in their short lives. G-d bless Samy and Benji and their mother!Noahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-48835785806187076302014-07-27T19:31:09.317+03:002014-07-27T19:31:09.317+03:00'..raised by 2 Filipinos..'

Much as we know the Filipino people love children, are Christian and forced to work abroad because their country is so poor, has Dr Schlesinger not made a horrible mistake engaging some to raise his sons? They may be delightful (??) women but how to they speak German and English? <br /><br />One must speak German to them and the other English, I guess. But it's unlikely that 2 Filipinos who are not employed by the UN or their embassy will speak either of these languages well enough to have taught it to 2 Austro-English kids whose mother is legally banned from seeing them most of the time and whose father is a young MD. Young docs almost always do lots of nite duties to make cash for their families so the dad will have employed the women to take most of the work load off him. <br /><br />He must have a screw loose if he thinks that's how you do it! What's up with the nursery if the boys haven't learnt to speak their deutsh there? Doesn't the judge check these things? Does his or her responsibility stop when custody is awarded? Something is radicly wrong in Austria.Worriednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-58402810825866781892014-07-26T21:03:20.777+03:002014-07-26T21:03:20.777+03:00Obstacles don't have to stop you.

As said before if anyone would like to post the best contact addresses,emails etc of the key people directly involved who could make a change , Im sure we would all be happy to write to them directly and try and get them to WAKE UP from their little denials. Any personal email addresses of the Chabad kindy main players, the judges contacts etc, Obviously the international communities support is helping Beths case.

Where are all the people who, months ago, would immediately appear on this blog like bees around a honeypot and declare that Michael Schlesinger is a dear, sweet man with no violent tendencies whatever? <br /><br />Were these people in fact him and his lovely sister all along? We were informed about Michael's unacceptable domestic violence many moons ago but the judge was taken in, apparently by his 'charm'. Why otherwise would she have awarded him Benji and Sammy? <br /><br />Methinks in the meantime Michael perhaps dumped his and Aunty Tina's laptops in the nearby Danube in a fit of rage. From all we've read about him, it seems more than likely :-((Frechdachsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-52346486704953427792014-07-23T16:27:10.401+03:002014-07-23T16:27:10.401+03:00I am extremely worried about these helpless little...I am extremely worried about these helpless little boys in the city of Vienna - RIGHT NOW. As ex-priest Adolf Höll commented today, "When a highly intelligent man actually implements the ideas he's conjured up, something terrible is the result ...."<br /><br />When a grown man of violent tendencies and prone to intermittent rage attacks is left alone (with irresponsible court approval) with sensitive children whose mother and 3 grandparents he despises, this is a recipe for ... DANGER. <br /><br />Who is now going to rescue these innocents? NOW, I mean. The Social Services (Jugendamt)? NO, they support the father and threaten staff members with dismissal if the latter believe the mother to be honest and caring. The Vienna police? NO, they do not always take reports of danger to little children seriously. The IKG (Jewish Community) in Vienna? NO, the secular leaders have long since abandoned any ideas they might have had of attempting to intervene to save the lives of these small Jewish boys. The Lauder Chabad Kindergarten and its heads, Rabbi Joseph Biderman and Ms Chani Eidelman?<br /><br />Now here we have the very individuals who could save them if nobody else cares! The boys attend kindergarten on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Rabbi Biderman, Ms Eidelman and their staff, as well as the many parents and carers who take children to kindergarten and pick them up afterwards, are in a position to HELP the BOYS. Show them your love and care when you see them and if you have the feeling, like I do, that they are in danger, do everything you possibly can to assist! <br /><br />Civil courage is needed in these troubled times!Troubled timesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-61823212160621846612014-07-23T16:00:20.061+03:002014-07-23T16:00:20.061+03:00The self-destructive patterns and nature which Bet...The self-destructive patterns and nature which Beth describes is typical of the abusive personality. The spend all of their energy and time in trying to destroy their victims, but in the end they destroy themselves. -- It is the story of the fox and the scorpion crossing the river, who both end up drowning bcse. it is in the 'nature' of the scorpion to sting his victim. <br /><br />But, unlike this children's story, abusers are not abusive bcse. it is in their 'nature'. They are abusive bcse. it is what they have been taught from early on in life. Then, in turn (as we have seen in this case) their behavior and actions are supported and encouraged by the abuser's family and the community (and courts); validating the abuse. <br /><br />While Beth's case is tragic, of greater concern for communities and govts (who are failing to address these issues), is how her case typifies the response of the courts and all too many people in the community. For thousands of years communities across the globe have repeated (and are repeating) the same story and drama that we have seen in Beth's case. <br /><br />Thank you Beth for having the courage and fortitude to speak up and speak out. If more people had this courage then maybe the dynamics of this situation would change.Global Expatsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-37808873518741501352014-07-23T15:10:02.946+03:002014-07-23T15:10:02.946+03:00@MiMedinat HaYam - the claim of physical abuse is ...@MiMedinat HaYam - the claim of physical abuse is not new.

In this modern age of communication, does Chabad really believe that the "sweeping under the carpet" policy is still the best approach???Montynoreply@blogger.com
