According to the letter to be posted, the rabbonim praise the women who, in addition to the yoke of running the house, take upon themselves the yoke of financially supporting the family as well so that their husbands can sit and learn Torah. However, Along with that they should not be put into positions in work that are not appropriate for a Haredi woman.
According to the letter, the following guidelines are important to follow:
1. the administration of the various seminaries, and the parents, should research when the student is deciding on which profession or vocation to study for and take into account not just the student's abilities and talents but also the future possibilities of work places and environments to ensure that she studies for a profession that will place in her in an appropriate environment in which she wont be spiritually harmed.
2. There are official bodies in the Defense Ministry, and elsewhere, that are interested in hiring Haredi women, and to that end make very attractive offers. They should not it is not tzanua nor appropriate for bnos yisrael to be associated with these bodies, and joining them would cause a deprecation of proper safeguarding.
3. It should be regularly explained and repeated that parnassah is dependent upon the Creator of the world and parnassa is all decreed in advance on Rosh Hashana. We only have to do the appropriate amount of hishtadlus and not look at the level of the salary being offered. We have to always be aware, during studies and later during work, to not lose the foundations of our education and the form of a Jewish mother raising her children for Torah.
4. During the schooling years, teachers should not put too much stress on preparing for a profession at the expense of the jewish studies needed for the spiritual development. The foundations of emuna and bitachon should be instilled in them deeply and when they act properly they will have siyata dshmaya..
halevai this level of emuna and bitachon on all of us. The women have to support the family and play both roles so the husband can learn in kollel but also has to do it at only low paying jobs.....
