Question
Shalom and blessings!
1. Regarding the laws of Shabbat — when changing a baby's diaper, is it permitted to fasten the ends of the diaper in order to close it?
2. At my workplace there was a woman who hardly spoke with me, but did speak with others. This hurt me very much. I would tell this to my husband in order to unburden my heart. (My husband knows this co‑worker.) Is this lashon hara?
Answer
Shalom and blessings.
1. It is permitted. This is not gluing; it is Velcro.
2. It is permitted to tell it in order to calm down.
Afterwards it is important to say that this was from your feeling, and it is not clear that this is exactly the reality.
