So far, the successful molesters have been successful at hiding. If a Scoutmaster comes to me and says he is gay, I know to keep my eye on him.
I’ve been a Scoutmaster for 6 years and I would rather know than not know.
Be brave friend. A Scout is: trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and REVERENT.
Everyone in your unit trusts your loyalty to the Scout Law and to be brave enough to deal with those who choose not to live up to the high ideals which we all expect. Be brave! You are obliged under your Youth Protection Training to contact your Scout Executive at the first sign or suspicion of nefarious activity and let them take it from there. Be brave or be an abettor! p.s. I also am a Scoutmaster.
