I just watched this whole show and have to say they over exagerate Rumspringa. Many Amish never even leave the community to try rumspringa. And the ones that do, do not act like this show partrays them if they decide to adventure out into the world. Partying and drugs is not what Rumspringa is about. There is more to childhood then those things. Its a good show for a audience. If they would have made this show on the reality of Rumspringa, I guess it would be to boring to air.

This was a movie not a show, so it didn't need to air or have a good audience. And yes you are correct that a lot of young Amish do not leave the community, but these people in this movie are not actors, and it is not staged. It's a documentory, everything shown is true without exageration.

I think its kind of weird how all these kids do is party. Thats not a life of a typical English teenager. Sure we party at times, but we have more things to worry about than getting high or getting drunk. Their life style is a choice and respect that but I personally cant imagine living that life style. I give props to them for living their lives like that. WOW!

KKLloyd, I laughed at that too when that boy said 'Going to the mall was always my dream.' LOL It's crazy how little things to us are everything to them because they've been so sheltered their whole lives from the outside world.

I first saw this On Demand the other night, and I really like it. It's interesting. I was laughing though when they said the cops raided the house of some Amish drug dealers or something like that. LOL I couldn't imagine an Amish person selling drugs.LOL

i am former amish and i can tell you that when you are 16 you DO NOT have a choice unless you just take the initiative and leave..the amish church and parents try to and often do force the young people to join the church with with dire threats of what will happen to them in the afterlife if they don't join
