    • As of yesterday I'm no longer associated with a unit or district. I've lost interest in scouting and now have 3 grandkids that I care much more about. I adore them and even though I've had a cold twice, hoof in mouth and covid, all since the start of Nov, it's worth it. But I don't have time for meetings with bored teenagers or campouts with a handful of scouts. If the parents were still engaged like they were even 10 years ago I'd make the time, but they're not. It seems the same way on this forum. I'm not a leader and I never thought I was. I just kept at it because I believed in it. I'm not going to change anything anymore. So, it's time to move on. I hope scouting figures things out. It was fun. I have good memories. There were some good people on this forum as well. I may poke my nose in once in a while but my interest is waning. I'd rather go for a hike to take some nice photos. Take care everyone. @RememberSchiff and @Eagle1993 , I'll start a thread in the moderator area.
    • I certainly hope that within a week of when I die people aren't posting on this website about how lousy a scoutmaster I was.  
    • Please respect and honor the passing of a fellow scouter as I believe the OP intended. Please use this topic to post positive and uplifting remembrances of our departed fellow scouter. Also as with President Ford, I expect a large scout presence in President Carter's forthcoming services. I moved "Politics" replies "aside" to a new topic in a more suitable forum.  
    • Odds are it will work better or reasonably well.  Individual YPT situations can be addressed.  Also, similar YPT challenges exist in the other approaches too.  IMHO, lots of this can be solved by focusing on activities and adventure more than the theoretically perfect way to run a troop.  Follow YPT 100%.  Beyond that, all the learning happens naturally by focusing on being an active, adventurous troop.
