An Orthodox Jewish family lives in the apartment next to ours. I have become good friends the mother of their family. (Mother of TEN children, aged baby through teenager.) We were shopping together the other day and she was piling diapers into her cart. Not just baby diapers but diapers of all different sizes, all the way up to adult. She told me that for the "Seder", the family dinner on Passover evening, everyone wears a diaper so they don’t have to take any breaks. Apparently the dinner (which is also a prayer service of sorts) can go into the "wee" hours of the night. She told me many Jewish people do this, but have you ever heard anything like this? I know my kids would freak out if I wanted them to wear diapers. But I guess her kids are used to it, so it isn’t strange to them.

    Mazel tov! That is the craziest question I have ever ever heard. The answer is no. That’s not kosher. You’re mashugana. Shalom.
    Ha-ha when I spelled mashugana the computer asked me if i meant to say marijuana.

    Interesting question. I think your neighbor has a mental problem. I know about the Seder, but I am not Jewish.

    I have never heard of such a thing!
    Was she saying they couldn’t move at all during Passover?
    Where in the bible does it say that they have to stay at the table the whole time? And how long does she hold Passover?
    Most adults can go six or more hours without wetting thyself.
