From crack of morning, Amish youths do chores before breakfast, like bring in wood and fill hot wood stoves, stumbling in dark feeding livestock and milking cows, to preparing the first meal of the day.

Then the boys go out and plow fields with 4 to 6-horse teams, handle wood cutting equipment without any safety equipment, to hamming away on building several stories up without a harness.

The girls are handling heavy pans, on their knees scrubbing floors, and preparing the next meal over hot stoves.
