Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Hello, you might be surprised. I had one interpter who was Amish from our Amish community before but he is no longer in Amish or being with his family relavaties but he was not happy there but I dont know if he see them anymore. But he went to college and taken interpter classes and learned. I had him for while when I was in college. So i might not able to tell you the name because he may have internet or computer and has own family and his new life. We did not know until we found out over the day that Amish had news channel on televison in our community because they all were searched for two missing teenage boys that they were gone for one night and all next day but everyone found two boys but they were want to be like and pretend like Tom Sawyer experienced that they been learned and studied about Tom Sawyer but two boys got lost, wet,hungry and cold entire the night but now people tell other people that they should not be act or do same thing as what Tom Saywer was did long time ago. But we does have Tom Sawyer places and histories in other city closer to us. So it was on new channel for short time About Amish so it was surpised to everyone. But our Amish community don't receive SSI or medicaid so that why they did not had one for their deaf girl long time ago but they did not want pay taxes so Amish could not afford to pay much of money or supports since they did not want taxes and can not afford taxes. So it may be different opitonals or ruling what any Amishes have. But in our community our Amish is very strictly and not allow to have carema or pictures in their Amish community even on the map/travel paper said not allow to have it but only can shopping or visit them. One time we had Amish guys who had van but sometimes they just do work but they had van when Amish came to my house and worked on rebuild roof. I think we had let Amish used our electric tools. I was not sure if they had only one or very rarely cell phone but not sure. I live in Missouri. So that why maybe our are alittle bit different about Amish things. Thanks for share with me.
