My son just earned his Eagle. I’m proud of his achievement. It’s the best leadership training in the world. I hate what they are doing to the Boy Scouts now. Why can’t we replace the leadership within the Scouts? Can’t we turn it back?

My son was well on his way to Eagle, and gave it up when they allowed gay scouts he could see the writing on the wall, and wasn't going to spend the hard work only to give it up, when the BSA further folded and allowed his safety to be jeopardized. He also wants to now how a scout can be morally straight and be gay, it did not compute in his mind.

I am proud of him for his convictions, I wish there was something else he could have gotten involved in. He loved being a boy scout.

National is done with this. Scouting happens on the local level with the majority of troops sponsored by churches. It’s a bunch of talk.
