Thank you all for your posts. I am a teacher and am always trying to bring kids up to a higher level of having a positive attitude but I need to be more specific with the discipline side of this. I am not trying to put my husband in as Scoutmaster in fact I would prefer not to. We have a group of boys whom their parents choose to come to the meeting, sit in the back of the room, choose not to be involved, and they start bashing on the boys' who are what they consider "trouble makers" which these boys are not trouble makers, they just need more guidance then other boys because they are ADHD/

I am new to this forum thing. I just recently became troop committee chair for our troop. I have two boys in Boy Scouts and a daughter in Girl Scouts and one more daughter not yet old enough to join, so we are a scouting family. I am always looking for information as questions come up and sometimes I do not have the answers so, I do some research to find those answers and this looks like a great place to find some! I am really excited about this forum and getting some answers.
