  1. While the techniques you speak of are no doubt well and good, there are always times that require punishment...

     

    On the brighter side, there are many ways to teach the Scouts in your troop good leadership and descision-making skills. Scout-leading-Scout is always so much better than Leader-leading-Scout. In my opinion, the Scouts should run the troop, and the leaders serve as guides and advisors. The Order of the Arrow organization, which I am so fond of, is also a good way to teach leadership and good virtues and qualities that will stick for the rest of their lives.

  2. There are some kids like "Bobby" in our troop, I used to be one of them myself :(

     

    Either he'll grow out of it, or the other scouts will get used to it. My advice? Give him time.

     

    As for the tent problem, I agree with Acco in that the scouts should work it out by themselves. Who knows, maybe someone will become friends with "Bobby". All I know is, don't have the kids take turns tolerating Bobby...that only makes the kids more apprehensive towards him, and makes Bobby feel less like a person, and more like an annoying thing to be tolerated, instead of an individual.

     

    Remember, ADHD kids have feelings too. Beleive me, I should know ;)

  3. I just wondered who here is a member of/is active in OA? Like I said in another thread, I am currently obsessed with the organization...just wondered how many other Arrowmen there are. While you're at it, post what lodge you're in too, so I can compare good 'ol Tamegonit to other lodges. ;) Let's go!
