To be fair, this woman is being credited with tearing down traditional JEWISH culture, the same as any other:

"...Gene's grandmother encouraged her to "follow her heart and break the rules". It is no doubt that her grandmother's encouragement to "break the rules" had its roots in the fact that her own father had secretly educated her in Hebrew..."

Dear old Grandma telling the youngster to "follow your heart" is a standard movie scene, ex: the old black and white "A Star is Born" film with Fredric March.

Real white Grandmas don't this. They say get a job, work, save money, get a practical degree, etc. Mostly the say work, work, work. Or did. The modern generation of Grandmas/Oprah fans are different. They have been programmed. But, also, working doesn't get you all the rewards it used to, and jobs are hard to find.

So, cover yourself with tattoos, my son, and get a guitar and learn how to play...
