RUMSPRINGER by phiten December 14, 2010

rumspringer 

An Amish "rite of passage" period whereby teenagers are permitted to indulge in certain "wild 'n' free" actions of "them English" --- such as "guzzling da Gordon's" and watching fake-fight scenes on TV --- in order to experience life outside of their communities and thus be better able to decide whether they want to continue with their insipidly-boring and oppressively-strict religion-steeped Amish ways, or live like da normal public does.

Somehow, da whole idea behind rumspringer seems like a very destructive and unwise idea... rather than Amish parents' allowing their children to totally "whoop it up big-time" --- and partake of unhealthy/dangerous activities dat could likely harm and/or negatively influence them permanently --- on just dat one glorious debauched-freedom-steeped period of their lives, why not instead merely "ease off a bit" on some of da most oppressive rules, and therefore simply let their children have a slightly-more-pleasant existence for da ENTIRE REST OF THEIR LIVES??? Da old adage, "Don't spend it all in one place!" comes to mind here --- kind of like if someone wastefully squanders his entire disability-check in just da first few days of da month ("Oh, boy --- PARTY TIME!!!) and then has nothing left to use over da entire remainder of da month, and thus has to just miserably sit around and mope in dissatisfied dejection for nearly four weeks till his next "helping of lifeblood" is released to him! Why not instead just carefully dole out said precious limited funds-allotment a little at a time over da entire month, so dat he will have enough for everything he needs?
