Swartzentruber Amish are allowing their teenage daughters to sleep with grown men for their dates 

[DTAP]

That's wise advice, do not leave the Amish and touch a worldly minor. It's common to meet the end of a gun.

[Godblessed]

Seriously?! The Amish parents would allow this? It’s not considered a form of prostitution or promiscuity?! But your hair and dress better be right. Yeah, okay 🧐

[karlgustav]

You'd think pre-marital sex would be a big no-no with these groups 🤷‍♂️

[horehoundbasedcandy]

Holy crap! That’s WAY MORE DEVIOUS than most worldly people!!! Holy crap I’ve never heard of someone (especially that young!) having an open door/legs policy!!!

[sandralmoore]

The mention of leaving a lamp on if available gives me uneasy feeling of a "red light" district and form of prostitution since a man's coming in to sleep w/a female.

[amysnews]

Prostitution was NOT on the list of crimes I expected the Amish to commit. That's a new one! 😮

An ex girlfriend rented an Amish house. She grew up kinda hippy so no electric or running water didn't bother her. Well after she moved in Amish men kept "stopping" by inquiring 😂😂. Turns out the Amish widow that had lived there before "entertained" to pay the bills. I was rather shocked but people are people. I guess I thought because they seemed so old timey that they would have a very strict morality. After living in Amish country here in southern Minnesota I learned they are just as bad if not worse then us English. I'm still friends with a couple ex Amish still. Good people. They also do the thing where they take a year off.

He is lucky he didn't get shot by a very worldly gun. At the end of the day people in prison don't care if you was Amish or not if you show up to prison with those charges

I've heard just recently one of Shelise's guests who is a former Swarzentruber Amish survivor telling her story about this tradition and it honestly made my skin crawl. I don't get how they give no sex ed whatsoever and expect kids not to act like their age. Anyway, yours is very good advice as usual.

Heard about that from a local farmer I worked with about 10 years ago. Didn't want to believe him, but he wasn't the lying type..sad to hear it again. Praying for those girls 😞

[JasonPa]

Very odd that with all their fears of sinning they would be ok with sleeping with a under age girl.

[Servant-of-Christ]

Religious freedom does NOT allow you to sexually assault woman (that's what it's called when an older man takes advantage of a underage child) and not have consequences. If they reported it they would get in trouble.

[ericatucker]

What great timing! Cults to consciousness was just talking about that fish on her podcast with a former swartzentruber author. She's written a book called the blue curtains or behind the blue curtains, something like that

[Dwelleronthethreshold]

Sense enough to leave the Amish, not enough sense to leave the traditions behind. 😑

I heard from a 65~ year old lifelong Amish area resident that he would be paid by Amish teens to drive them to the bishops house to cat call and holler for his daughter to come out and party with them and be driven in the car to a house to have sex and drink.

My friend said they’d yell “get your daughter ready, she’s going to get some tonight” and all sorts of sexual stuff like that to the family inside the house.

I asked him, would the girl come out?

“Every time”.

In Scotland you’d be charged alright, with crimes.

[Jake.Mag]

Religious freedom doesn't cover murder, it shouldn't cover molestation of a minor either.

[barbarad]

If authorities got wind of it and were able to investigate the crime would win out over the freedom of religion in court. That said, you know better than I do that no one would ever testify and if you can't prove it then it's done.

[steveguida]

Those are pedos my friend, they need to be reported

[Brian-tmxt]

Freaking disgusting I cannot believe that thank you for spreading the word hopefully something is done about this in the future it's a shame that this is allowed to go on I pray that something is done soon
