Thank you for your response. Yes, I too believe he needs his time in the spotlight. We are located on Long Island. Where are you?

Thats a wonderful scenario! Thank you for sharing that. Even that would be ok for my son. Ive never seen the troop ever do that. Its always a ceremony. But I certainly wouldnt mind it

Amen. Yes As i stated in previous replys... I will be having my own COH for my son. Im just trying to work out the particulars.

Thank you so much Wisconsin momma. Its good to hear from another mom out there. This is exactly the problem I have. Meanwhile others are asking for inside stories and that there must be something more that I'm not telling. Our committee chair is exactly like how you described yours to be. Theres no explanation. It disgusts me that people like this can be allowed to be leaders. And quite frankly, someone needs to step up and voice it. People just cant walk away from this kind of abuse or discrimination.

so FYI... I still have no gotten a reply back from the SM. No we have no idea what the dog gone problem is. A council member told me to reach out to the SM and invite him and the others. In fact the council member said that some of them will in fear of looking like jack asses...LOL thats what he said... quote. it doesnt matter to me who speaks but the council member said I could not MC it. I can host it but, there needs to be a script for the ceremony.

I'll copy and paste... by the way, I havent heard back still with his response from my answer to his email. (This has always been the case trying to get answers for anything in this troop) My first email to the Scout master: Hey Bob! Adam told me that you had a bout with cancer and I want to tell you how very sorry I am to hear that but happy that you are ok. I pray for a clean bill of health for you.I was shocked to hear it. So words cant express how sorry I am. What Id like to chat with you about is this COH. I'd personally like to know the reasons b

Thank you gblotter

Right it isnt my sons story..lol My son was up front and present for everything, meetings ECOH, Camp, Webelos woods.. name it. He was there. Right from the beginning

Amen gblotter. Thats the only attitude to have. I wish all you guys here in this forum could be there!

Naaa My son never crossed him. Tried to stay out of his way after the very first time this guy bullied him. Yes you are right and It is Sad. You took the words right out of my mouth. It is Sad... Even adults need to act according to the scout Law. I will keep those words in mind. Wish I would have thought of them! LOL

I cant believe that you did either..LOL If these were reservations related to the physical limitations, then thats just Bullshit pardon my language here but there have been autistic boys that had more severe limitations and gone thru with no hitch. Seriously? You condone that? It sounds like it. Sounds like its ok if a boy has limitations that its ok to be treated this way. As a former or present Scout Master Im appalled by your lack of "heart" here. I think its appalling that anyone in a leadership that dedicates their time to helping others grow and helping to nurture, dont ha

No. When I said “Yes, I did, and proud that I did”. I meant that for the den leader position. My son went to camp to get the swimming badge done and could not do the endurance of it so alternatively he did the hiking. We found a great meet up group that does hiking regularly and it was slow paced so my son could complete it and he did. Yes everything is complete. he was awarded eagle

nope, I never said we reported it. My son did not want to go to another troop. All his friends since elementary school were in that troop. I can clearly see why he didnt want to go to another troop. He also was very friendly with some of the leaders. When my son confided in one, they just told him "who Doug"... ahhh, Hes going through a tough time.... I didnt subject him to it. It was there. My son didnt want to leave for the reason I just mentioned. The others didnt want to for the same reason. It may not smell right but thats the reasons why we stayed.
