So that whole "Breaking Amish" show, was that all bullshit or real or some mix? I've heard of Rumspringe. How do you go back?

I don't mean the logical steps of going back, but thanks for that info. I mean after having that kind of freedom [of Rumspringa], going back to what might seem to most outsiders an extremely restrictive lifestyle. What motivates people to do that? No judgement, just curiousity.

The intention of the law is good and noble. Unfortunately, it is frequently hijacked by unscrupulous lawyers who threaten to bring suits against small businesses that are somehow not in compliance; no ramp, no unisex handicap restroom, etc. and those bloodsuckers offer 5-figure settlements to not pursue action. Which any rightminded business owner is going to see is far cheaper than hiring a lawyer and fighting it. And the settlement money does not go to actual disabled people, it goes directly to the lawyer. And maybe he tosses a few hundred to the real handicapped person the suit is filed on behalf of. But this law is just too prone to abuse. Keep the law, get rid of the lawyers.
