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

submitted by deathcow

1 decade 5 years 6 months ago

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.

"Amish kids got the best parties!"

To see the english world they go straight to Walmart? I'd run back to the community too!

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