ULTRA ORTHODOX: Community Enables Her Parents Doing the Unspeakable

Certain Ultra Orthodox communities are considered high control groups by former members. Today, Beatrice Weber, who was a wife to a Rabbi and mother of 10 inside a Hasidic sect, takes us through the book of modesty that they were expected to follow. She will share just how much control she was under when it came to her appearance and every day expectations.  Click here to watch on YouTube Watch pt 1 here:  https://youtu.be/LGXNrG7kIec?si=0IbiLk6h7XQ0jtZO Watch pt 2 here:  https://youtu.be/6MXpJm_aRoU?si=L67psW-uh-nOcwJX Resources for help leaving Orthodox communities  Footsteps https://www.footstepsorg.org/ Rights and Religion Forum https://rarforum.org/ Find and support Beatrice!

After decades of suffering in silence and submission in the Hasidic community with 10 children, Beatrice carefully plotted her escape. With some of her children already adults, she snuck out with the youngest 4 who were still very young. The community and older children immediately turned on her and tried to take the youngest kids away in court. After years of custody battles, she kept access to her kids, but the court ordered one son stay in a Hasidic school which gave him no secular education. Beatrice sued the NYC for not regulating the religious Hasidic schools and won! This is how she deconstructed her ideology.

Beatrice Weber was told her only goal in life should be getting married to a respectable Hasidic man and bearing as many children as possible. After being “rebellious” as a young teen, she was sent abroad to a strict religious school where she was meant to learn to behave. As soon as she returned, her parents set her on a path to marry a Torah scholar for a hefty price. She was only 18 years old. She would then not be allowed to use birth control and go on to having 10 children. Suffocated in the lifestyle with little to no help from her husband, she began plotting her escape.  Click here to watch on YouTube Watch pt 2 here:  https://youtu.be/6MXpJm_aRoU?si=L67psW-uh-nOcwJX Resources for help leaving Orthodox communities  Footsteps https://www.footstepsorg.org/ Rights and Religion Forum https://rarforum.org/ Find and support Beatrice!  Linktree https://linktr.ee/bweber Website: https://beatriceweber.com/about/ We want to meet you in real life!  Come adventure with us on our 2nd C2C VACATION!  Click here to go to the official booking page Subscribe to our C2C "CLIPS" Channel!
