Question

I am a girl and this year I am visiting my grandparents for Hanukkah. Does this obligate me in any way?

Answer

A girl visiting others should participate with a small amount of money with the head of the household. Therefore, give your grandfather a coin, and he will acquire for you a share in the oil with that coin.
