kitbag Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I've been watching it and I have been finding it really interesting. The bit I find most interesting is what their view of our culture and general way of life is! We must seem so strange to them! I would love to go and experience their culture.

BarbaraJ Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I wouldn't like to live it but it looks like a great life to have a retreat to, no phones, computers, tvs , not sure what books they are allowed i'd find that hard, but would love the peace and what a great life for small children Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saronne Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I've been watching it..it's absolutely fascinating. They're so sheltered, yet they're allowed this 'run-around' time before they decide whether they want to commit themselves fully to Amish life. Interesting how one of the lads has been on his 'run-around' for 6 years! Saronne x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted August 2, 2010 Author Share Posted August 2, 2010 I'm interested in their attitude to modern teen clothing and possessions, and they appear to want neither. Love the barn raising! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
