learned the virtues of the Ten Commandments on an annual Thanksgiving
holiday hike to churches, synagogues and mosques, where clergy and scholars
explained their faiths' take on the ancient code.
But this year, Touro Synagogue, a major Reform congregation and a longtime
partner, has told the organization it's no longer willing to take part
because the Scouts deny membership to gay troop leaders and gay Scouts.

NEW YORK (AP) - After a confidential two-year review, the Boy Scouts of
America on Tuesday emphatically reaffirmed its policy of excluding gays,
angering critics who hoped that relentless protest campaigns might lead to
change.
The Scouts cited support from parents as a key reason for keeping the policy
and expressed hope that the prolonged debate over it might now subside.
Bitter reactions from gay-rights activists suggested that result was

这里的经验仅限于我和儿子参加了一年半的Cub Scouts活动,所以分享经验主要基于

d*******e 发帖数: 863 | 21 我们宝宝参加的 Girl Scout 我们还挺喜欢的。也要卖 cookies,但是可以选择不参加
;另外没有这个露营的事。我们家人挺喜欢 Girl Scout 的 cookie 的,特别是那个
thin mint,自己家买几盒,然后问问同事、朋友、邻居,也卖不了很多,可是我要求
宝宝自己说话,我在旁边帮忙,觉得也还有点得到锻炼的效果。
我们也不在商店门口摆摊,因为 leaders 不喜欢这种方式。可能另一个原因是我们
troop 总有个把小孩儿能卖二、三百盒,所以一般也就够了。哦,我们是三块五一盒,
原来大城市啥都贵。
露营那事儿我们这儿连 boy scout 都是要家长陪的,girl scout 现在还没有。这个应
该是看 leader 的想法了。我觉得并不是每次活动必须参加,如果就是因为这个,可以
选择不去露营吧。 |

l*****e 发帖数: 2447 | 23 没有很多经验,根据我的了解说的。大家指正。
cub scouts要求家长参与挺多的,不能光指望den leader。别的不说,一群七八岁的孩
子,一个家长能罩得住?然后要做的各种事情,没有家长督促引导,还真不一定做得下
来。
到了五年级,去boy scouts,家长投入可以少一点,更适合双职工家庭。不一定需要先
前的cub scouts经验。我们娃们就没有去过cub scouts。(BSO:他们各种生存急救野
营做饭,玩雪玩水玩火玩冰的技艺并不十分差,大孩子赞美道:你们的cub den把你们
教得不错嘛。)
社交技巧不技巧不好说了,能提供一个社交场合。
最大的好处,能提供一个外界的教育源,教育孩子如何遵守社会的公行良序。
对亚裔孩子也挺好,因为教育内容属于学分性质,可以一样一样抓。德育之外,一项一
