Thanks for the feedback. My son is in middle school and it's been brought to my attention "that at this age teens do tend to feel weird about scouts". I have asked him if that's it and he said "No". He's sad that his favorite asst scout leaders are leaving and not saying "goodbye". I did ask my hubby to get more "involved in the troop for our son's sake" but he works crazy hours and it wouldn't be a good fit. I was a Girl Scout growing up and have done the Cub Scout Den Leader for both my boys, I just feel so bad that my son and other scouts are hurting and I can't fix what's wrong. I do

After many months I finally decided to ask for advice. My son's troop is going through a a really rough transition and I am really frustrated. People/leaders are dropping out right and left due to burnout and troop politics. The Scouts are lost and the patrols are suffering as boys leave and are not replaced. I feel bad for my son who used to love scouts(ever since tigers). Now it's a real chore to get him to go to any scout outing. He's not a sport loving boy but has loved the outdoors since Cub Scouts, he used to be real excited about camp outs, COH and summer camp and service opportun
