  1. This is a real difficulty for working moms all over the world. Why is Lag Bomer a 2 day holiday or even a one dayer? let kids go to school and have a park outing or sport tournaments, scavenger hunt or tiyul.

    I’m all for a breather for the kids, but coming off of a 3 week break, to a day off, and two days off, and then three days off, all within 2 months, is too much.
