Amish Girls Gone Wild - Rumspringa - The rite of passage.

Wikipedia:
Rumspringa (also Rumschpringe or Rumshpringa, derived from the Pennsylvania German term for "running around") generally refers to a period of adolescence for some members of the Amish, a subsect of the Anabaptist Christian movement, that begins around the age of sixteen and ends when a youth chooses baptism within the Amish church or instead leaves the community

The more I've learned about the Amish, the more impressed I am. They are the only religious group I know of to do this -- encourage their kids to experience life outside of the community before committing to live by the rules of the church.

Saw 'The Devil's Playground' on TV a while back, and had NO idea what they were up to.

Kinda scary that Amish kids typically live more of a wild, drug/sex filled life than I ever have, and to them, I'm considered sheltered for a bit.

That part is impressive but not so much when you factor in the rapes and child abuse.
