ok but just keep in mind please...that a lot of parents seek to put their boys into scouts for positive role models and for some good guidance...
and NOT just to learn how to tie knots.

this especially applies to single mothers, who otherwise have so very few places to get any help at all in raising boys to become good men

just a thought.
it is a reality, I know that much and I also know, can attest, that many many boys do so benefit form scouting, to the eternal gratitude of their parents (especially single moms and there are, unfortunately, so many single moms these days with boys they somehow have to find help raising)
best regards,

From my own personal experience as a Scouter, when trying to organize a new Cub Scout Pack down in Leesburg, VA, a few years ago, too many parents thought BSA stood for "Baby Sitters of America".

They wanted a daycare organization where they could drop off Junior for a couple of hours while they had "quality time" with a bottle of wine. They balked at the idea of spending that time with their son at the pack and den meetings.

I will watch this organization's development with interest and will try and volunteer with them in New Hampshire. They will have to keep the BSA's "Two-Deep Leadership" and "Youth Protection" programs, but they will mean something in this new organization. Obviously, they are now a sham in the BSA.
