Too old for Cub Scouts?

[IM_Kathy 32]

ok, IMO if the boy wants to stay in cubs then let him. If the boy is bored in cubs, but the dad wants him to stay in order to earn his AOL one thing to mention is the fact that the sooner he moves up to Boy Scouts the more time he will have to make it to eagle - eagle must be completed before he turns 18 (they don't add a year because he stayed an extra year in webelos)

 

my son has the disadvantage of a very early fall birthday so since he crossed over with the other cubs in his den he already has a 1/2 year to year less then the others... thankfully he has realized this and has worked very hard to make it to his star rank already (he'll be 14 this fall) while the others from his former den have just finished their 1st class rank.
