How the Amish Are Smarter With Money Than You (And They Don’t Even Have Wi-Fi)

Rumspringa and the Amish Teen Rebellion

Teenagers rebel, even in Amish societies—but it is not your typical angst-filled phase. Enter “Rumspringa,” the community’s “coming of age” experience where teens can explore the world outside their residences. This means they can try out modern life, drive cars, and even wear non-Amish clothes.

But here’s the twist: “Rumspringa” is less about wild rebellion and more about deciding whether to fully commit to the Amish way of life or leave it behind. Most teens return, and they come back with a sense of appreciation for their simple, disciplined lifestyle. It’s like getting a vacation to the modern world and then realizing it’s expensive and stressful.
