Ha! Funny you should post this when just a few days ago you were encouraging me to bend my personal convictions and allow my son to do Boy Scouts.
Touché
This issue even makes it so that I don’t want my daughter to do Girl Scouts. I will not let my son join that group, and it doesn’t seem fair to let her do scouts and not him. What is wrong with them?
Heck I refused to climb Mt Baden Powell when I was within a few hundred yards of the summit. Of course I was alone, but still.
