[quote=Anonymous]In my experience, the thing about cub scouts running wild like puppies and Girl Scouts being all orderly is a total myth. Our Cub Scout pack and den meetings each have a long component that is instructional and/or reporting (reporting on different badges earned by the various dens).  Thr boys are expected to sit quietly and listen.  I have two Girl Scout troops and I would never make them sit and listen that long--they are very active and just would not.  There is a lot more discipline in the Cub Scout system and a lot of the dads are very strict and demand quasi-military discipline.  I do like the skills learned but, like a PP, I appreciate that GS is a little more relaxed and a little more "free to be you and me" in spirit.  
Ps Girl Scouts camp as much as boys scouts.  And the Boy Scout popcorn is way worse than GS cookies--I won't let my son sell it to anyone but me because I'm embarrassed to ask $15 for a $3 bag of caramel corn.  People actually want the cookies and the girls enjoy selling them. [/quote]
