I help lead a Trail life USA troop. One of our key themes is Let Boys Be Boys.
In September, we had a recruiting meeting. In my power point presentation, I had a picture of one of our young men, 35’ in the air harnessed to a rope and searching for a toe hold on a climbing wall. I also had a photo of a five year old boy with a big smile on his face holding a BB gun after firing his first shot.
Next to it was a picture of Pajama boy.
The text was something like “Your choice. Who do you want your son to be?”
We had stellar growth.
