That is not the intent of the merit badge. But that is not what I'm driving at. Again you miss the concept of the Merit Badge Counselor. That merit badge does not make him the "equal" of the adults. Indeed. Has it ever? Again you miss the concept of the Merit Badge Counselor. And you are missing my point that the Scouts is not an organization that has the young participate on an equal footing. You are the one who keeps mentioning the Merit Badge Counselor, not I. Keeps mentioning? It is the crux of my comment. That you know nothing beyond Scoutmasters and other leaders is not my fault. It has no bearing on whether or not the young scouts have equality with the adults. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE As long as you insist that the Merit Badge Counselor lords his or her knowledge and age over the child, then you must be correct. Go in peace. And if you choose to believe that the scouts and the adult leaders are interacting as equals, then go right ahead even though that is not the way they are set up. I don't beleive that, never have, see above. You refuse to become knowledgeable about another facet of scouting; the merit badge counselor. |
