Appropriate discipline for Cub Scouts


Recommended Posts

ba-dad,

 

I am in agreement with all of the others here. I encourage you to do the things that you've committed yourself to do. However, whatever happens, I would not leave your son in that environment. I'm not as concerned about the push-ups as I am about the yelling. This can really impact the way a kid thinks of himself, most notably in regards to his self-esteem. I'm a pretty hard-nosed conservative (as many can attest to). I believe in not "babying" a kid, but this guy's behavior sounds way out of line. It has the potential to do much more harm (in the long term) than simply making a kid cry (which is bad enough). It may be a huge sacrifice on your part, but maybe God is calling you to become this den's leader...Something to think about.
