I cannot say for certain
but I think this . . .
(my own Scrub Scrouts - Mr. W.'s term of endearment)
is why they created
Cub Scouts for
young boys.
{And for the record - between Mr. W. & I (and with a little help from our boys :) we have earned our Bear, Bobcat, Wolf, Eagle, Sparrow, Cougar, Magpie, Silver Scissors, Bronze Nagging Parent, Gold Sleeping Bag, Watermelon Cheer, Pinewood Derby, Life, Felt Like Dying on the Escalante, Buffalo, Blue Tarp, etc., etc. and, most importantly, peace of mind knowing that the projects are over, the merit badges are earned and our Eagles are safely married. As the saying goes - we gave them roots and wings. Okay, technically the Boy Scouts of America gave them 'wings'.}
