As a member of the District Advancement Committee, if a boy contacts me via email or phone to meet regarding approving his Eagle Scout Project and then mom and dad take over or I can hear them telling the boy what to say in the background, I wonder how much leadership they are going to show on their project.
Mom and Dad, step back. It may be ugly but when a boy does it, it is supposed to be ugly. I like it that way. Boy lead and boy done doesn't mean it will be done right - it is supposed to be a learning process. You don't have to feel pressure to impress me.
BOY LEAD! BOY LEAD!! BOY LEAD!!!
The ramblings of an ex BSA Varsity Team Coach on Scouting and specifically the Varsity program. My thoughts, ideas and concerns are in no way connected or shared in any form or fashion by the Boy Scouts of America or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) who volutold me to serve as a Varsity Coach. Some personal rambling too........... (I am an Assistant Scoutmaster now that the Varsity Program has been murdered........)

I hope you had Jr. put Mom and Dad on the line so you could tell them this firsthand!
