Aren’t you thinking of the Catholic Church?[/quote]

People who stay with these organizations despite the sexual abuse scandals are apologists. 
“Well, it didn’t happen in my parish/pack so we will keep giving money to a know corrupt organization.”

Your dues are going to pay settlements.

The abused kids should get settlements.  And I pay about 150$ a year for scouts dues-I pay more for one month of tae kwon do.  It’s really not a costly activity. [/quote]

I think annual dues to National are around $40 and the rest goes to your Pack.

Scouts BSA had many of the same problems that other organizations had in the past. The training for adults has greatly improved and the requirements for being around the kids have changed. I also like that there is a requirements for parents to talk to their kids and complete specific exercises with them regarding abuse, sexual, verbal, and physical, as well as cyber awareness training. All of this has to be completed annually, with the kids, in order to earn their rank. While not perfect, Scouts BSA have been responsive to the issue of sexual abuse by adults and older kids.
