mom162 Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 ' morning all. Thank you for making this place available on the web for everyone. With all its faults, the internet is an amazing resource! I am a west coast mom, with a boy whose just last spring made the transition from Cub scouts to Boy Scouts. I think he likes Boy Scouts way better than Cub, and he loved Cub too! From day one he's wanted Eagle, so my husband and I are right behind him. Scouting has been one of the best things we've ever found for our boy - he's very bright but struggles in school, and doesn't much care for team sports. Scouting is giving him a chance to balance his life, while learning how to find his way and do guy stuff with a lot of other boys of all ages. We're committed to sending him on all the campouts he wants, because we see that it gives him a little "mini-vacation" from homework and stress once a month...! In our Troop right now we are unfortunately dealing with some politics amongst the adults that is quite painful, although the boys are pretty much unaffected, so I've put a post in the right section for that. I'd love some opinions. Thanks for reading this! Have a great day. P.S. Sorry for the dumb screen name , it's the one which Lego gave me when I joined that silly Lego club a few years ago - the rest of my screen names are too close to my real name for me to post about the politics above...
