SPL1Warwick

I have had a SM before this one, but even that one was all about the "adult lead troop". I always thought that that was the right way untill NYLT and reading up on the way a troop should be ran. The problem is that the CC is his wife. Is that right that the CC and SM are spouses? and my Ass SPL is his son. wat is going to happen when i leave. I am 16 and earned eagle when i was 15. I think i know what is best for the troop and i want us to get there. I like my SM, he is a chyll guy and he is always there to help any scout i need. At my eagle court of honor, i awarded my CC, my SMs wife, with the mentor pin because their family and mine get along so great. I dont want to get my SM "impeached" but i need to know how to deal with the situation with the least amount of drama possible. If worst comes to worst i will contact district and get him out but i dont quite want to go down that road yet

A question for SPL's and SM's

I am a SPL and i am partically NYLT trained. I've tryed so many times to let my scoutmaster know that he needs to back off when he is getting to involved. But when i tell him this he goes he off on me, threatning to quit and all that good stuff. For Example, at summer camp this past year. He called for a "Uniform Expection", out of natural curiosity i asked him why he was doing that and he says "Dont ask why just do it". Was this appropriate for a SM to say to his SPL? So i went up to him and asked all near scouts to leave for a second and i told him that he should not be calling a uniform inspection that is the PL or SPL's job. Adults are there for guidence and health and safety not to call for uniform inspections. So then he said that it was okay if we dissagreed as long as we did it his way, and then i replyed that we will let a commitee vote upon that, and he went off on me. Swearing up and down F that F-This and threated to quit and just was horrible experience for the entire troop to be there. Next time how should i go about letting him know that he needs to back off or that what he is doing is not his job?

In the book "Legacy Of Honor: The Values and Influence of America's Eagle Scouts" written by Alvin Townley it answers that. The largest known family that had biological brothers become eagles there were 11 of them. I know imagine 11 kids. It was the Thomase. Their names were Decall, Devon, Darren, Robert, Ralph, Gordon, Gilbert, Charles, Eddie, Harvey and Rex. The only person that didnt acheive the rank of eagle was their sister Elaine. Their troop is out of Las Vega, Nevada. Check out the book i got it as a gift for my eagle court of honor
