  1. Books . . . . I was once asked to suggest an activity for Lion or Tiger Den. I suggested, why not read a story to them, say a chapter a meeting? A classic adventure story, Treasure Island, Jungle Book, even Profiles in Courage. The Den leader looked at me like I was speaking Chinese...…. I can think of no better way to quiet down a class (Den?) then to read to them. Appropriate voices and inflections as one is able. Pictures optional. Make it worth while, a reward for accomplishing the cleanup. Ten, maybe even 15 minutes of sit down and rapt attention, it is worth practicin

  2. I wouldn't be unconcerned. Take it from a Catholic, my own church has had cowardly leaders and clergy, eager to protect the image of the Church instead of protecting their flock. I doubt any other large organizations, religious or not, are any different. There are people out there who seek to target the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, similar to the Roman Catholic Church, but that doesn't mean that these alleged crimes did not happen, nor that clergy or members of the faithful were complicit in allowing them to happen or ignoring the problem.

  3. You must, if not for your sake then for those of us who no longer have Momma to talk to about such things.

  4. Flex your no muscle. I am similar to you. I love that feeling of being wanted and needed, and typically happily take on volunteer roles, especially for Scouting. The last year, I've shedded a few roles, and said no to a few new ones. It's really uncomfortable, but I'm glad I said no. They weren't the right gigs at the right times.
