After “Rumspringa” you decide to be a member of the chuch (baptized)
or leave the Amish.
In “Rumspringa” young try driving a car/drinking/smoking/sex, some would
try dope.
They decide themselves where to live.
Good things in being an Amish:
You lead a good and healthy life.
You learn to respect the things you have.
They life like one big family helping each other.
For some people it is less stressing.
They only have what they really need – no luxury.
My opinion about living there way most difficult:
No electricity.
I couldn´t do my hobbies.
Having to take part in the church ceremony.
Maybe the strict rules about work.
Parents decide till 16:
Good:
Maybe you feel very secure.
You don’t get confused about what you could do.
Bad:
You are not allowed to develop your own opinions.
You miss a lot of freedom.
Faron: (The boy from the film)
God addicted to drugs in Rumspringa.
He got a girlfriend and was clean.
Got back Into the drugs.
In the end he met Emma again and got a job.
Velda: (The girl from the film)
She broke up with the amish because the wanted to live
Like “normal Americans.
She wanted an education.
