No Real Retirement Age
Between the ages of 50 and 70, Amish people begin to reduce their daily activities. This is also dictated by their physical condition. They usually move to a designated grandparent’s house on their family’s property. When older people are in good health, they tend to stay at home, and their daughters take care of them as their health declines.

Baptism
Between the ages of 16 and 25, Amish people are baptized into their church. Before that, the individual is not allowed to marry. They are only allowed to marry members of the same church. Not to mention the fact that it usually happens very quickly. This is unusual compared to other forms of Christianity because it is up to the parents to decide whether or not to baptize their children. People in the Amish culture, on the other hand, have the freedom to choose whether or not to be baptized. Because children are not of legal age to make such a decision, they are not baptized.
