I know that for me I was resistant to wearing my knots for many of the same reasons I never wore my rack on my Army Greens. I'm just not interested in the recognition that they bring either from those that doubt they were earned or from those that want to give me a pat on the back for earning them, it just doesn't really matter to me.
However, as it was put to me by my council registrar, "you expect your boys to sew on their ranks when they advance and merit badges when they earn them right?" Well with that statement I knew where she was going right away.......I now wear most of my knots,
