To some this post is a sensitive subject.
I was reading an Amish fiction book. The author wrote her characters talking about "pregnancy." Maybe in some Orders but, not across the board, I thought and emailed the author. She assured me she vetted some Amish and they spoke about such things. So I asked Josh, "When you were growing up, did you ever hear the word pregnancy?"
"No!" he answered. "If we saw a woman with a big belly we tried to figure it out."
I asked our son-in-law Harvey and received the same answer. "You mean even if you had a married sister who was expecting, your parents didn't tell you she was going to have a baby?"
"No," said Harvey. "They didn't speak of such things."
So when one of my ex-Amish groups kicked around the following question, I thought I'd post their answers for you to read. It's meant to neither criticize nor complement the Amish, just to give information. The question: How much did your Amish parents tell you in the way of sex ed? [Tweet That]
