Thanks for all the help. I finally got a hold of my DE today and he agreed, if the CM and current SM are ok with it then it's ok. My son has no intentions of recruiting the dens(he's helping both web. I & II's). He just wants to do his best and help the Pack he grew up in. I found out today that the reason the old troop is doing this is they think that my son and I(used to be heavily involved in the troop) will try to take other scouts with us. In fact we have no intention of doing so. I feel that the other scouts are happy so why ruine it for them. I am a unit commisioner and because of this I realized that our troop was anything but boy led and I want my son to get the most out of his scout experience so I took him to other troops and he realized what he wanted. He choose to leave the old troop himself I just allowed him the oppertunity to visit other troops and see how a boy led troop works

My son has just transfered from one troop to another. He has been serving as den chief for the cub pack associated with the troop and wishes to continue doing so. His new scoutmaster and spl have no problem with this but his old scoutmaster and cc do. I found out that they plan on asking him to step down as den chief. Is this within their rights? The current cubmaster wants to keep him, in his words"the best den cheif he's ever had." My son wants to continue and I think that if he finds out the Adult "Leaders" plan he will feel he's being punished for making a hard decision. Any thoughts? He's only been den chief for a few months. Aren't the leaders just being spiteful and hurtful? How long is the position assignment for? I thought it was one year? Thanks for your help
