Question
A family with married brothers and sisters is organizing a Shabbat to strengthen family bonds. Is it permissible for men and women to sit together at meals without a partition, or is a partition required?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
If it is a small family gathering [brothers, brothers-in-law, and their children] without other people, a partition is not necessary. However, if there are other people present, a partition should be made.
