Lou,
I answered your questions below:
A. Do you see a pervasive use here by the administration of techniques that could cause emotional distress to members here that are sensitive to their emotional well-being?
- yes
B. If so, do you think that the members of the administration have a duty to refrain from using techniques that could have the potential to inflict emotional distress to members here?
- yes-an (implied?) ethical duty as governed by the profession the administrator is a member of
C. If so, would it matter if the members of the administration knew or did not know that these techniques could have the potential to inflict emotional distress, and if they claim that they did not know of the sound and unsound mental-health practices that are well-known in the liturature, that that could excuse them for using them?
- As a result of the practices, the potential and actual harm felt by others has been brought to the adminstrator's attention numerous times. I'd be surprised if a psychiatrist did not recognize familial shaming behavior; but if he does not, I cannot say ignorance is an excuse although that can vary according to the situation at hand. Ignorance is sometimes refered to as negligance.
D. Mr Hsiung has drafted the rule that says to not post anything that could lead another to feel put down, and that he agrees that antisemitic statements are those that could lead a Jew to feel put down when they read such, and that they are not supportive when an imperative is used, like {only those} and that support takes precedence.
- I don't know entirely of this situation, but abstractly, I do not agree that 'support' would supercede the allowance of anti-sematic statements.
In your posting here your concern of the technique that you cite as causing you concern, could you be willing to study the ramifications of Mr. Hsiung allowing without sanction to the poster to rephrase, or something else to avoid sanction, the antisemitic statement here in this link and post something in the thread on the admin board or in the thread where the post appears on the faith board? If you could, then I may be able to post here concerning bd2's concern about not accomodating Mr. Hsiung's condition for not to be ostracized from the community if he/she does not accomodate Mr. Hsiung's condition. You see, (redacted by respondent)
Lou- No, I am not interested in researching that further. I do not wish to spend time doing so since I have other priorities. I check this forum when I am distracted in between tasks, and some topics interest me more than others.
Best,
Violette
