[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't you parents of girls focus on fixing Girl Scouts and instilling more rigor, outdoor experiences and rigor into that program instead of pushing to redifine and completely change Boy Scouts?[/quote]

Girl Scouts released a ton of outdoor and STEM related badges and journeys last month.
A lot of the "lack of rigor" that people complain about is due to lackluster leaders who chose not to follow the journeys/badges in earnest or who chose not to get involved in their council and national activities.
Easier to whine than actually step up to improve their daughter's troop.

But in the process they are pushing to ruin the most valuable parts of Boy Scouting, single gender opportunities and education for boys.[/quote]

Huh?  Girl Scouts isn't pushing that at all!  Girl Scouts is and is planning to remain a single sex organization and really has no influence (and probably no strong opinion) about what Boy Scouts does with its activities.
This thread was started by BOY SCOUTS survey about Cub Scout membership.

This is all on the boys.[/quote]
