Well I do disagree( the boy scouts have been pretty free of child molesting although the jamboree always sounded kinda gay to me). I just kinda assumed the mods would pull it...

Scouting in the World is Co-Ed, females are in most troops. The BSA here in America is male only in Traditional troops where parents enroll their kids in an organization where they promise to be morally straight and reverent among other things.

Those parents who have sent their kids to this world Jamboree are in for quite a shock when they find out that many are handing out condoms to the kids attending and are giving tacit approval for these kids to have sex. I'm sure the parents here in the USA didn't shell out thousands of dollars to send their kid to Thiland only to become grandparents 9 months later.

A Jamboree is just a hugh gathering of Scouts to do Scouting things. It's a great opportuinty to advance in the ranks, learn and try new and different things which aren't offered in traditional camps and to trade patches, etc.
