[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 85058, member: 1233"] My difficult child tried scouts when he was in 1st grade. EF named B was into Scouts. EF's dad was the assistant leader. Mom's were supposed to let go and leave the kids there. Dad's could stay, but EF's dad wanted it to be "guy time" as lots of the kids never got time iwth Dads, or other adult male influences. EF's mom (who I liked) called after the 2nd meeting. Said she needed to talk, and hoped I wouldn't get upset. I knew at that point things hadn't gone well!!! Apparently my lovely, precious, adorable difficult child started rolling around on the floor while they tried to teach them something. Then started marching around telling them he would not recite any pledge and they could not make an "automoton" out of him. I think I spelled it wrong. The dads all thought my son was extremely disturbed (none of htem knew he was jsut using a big word for robot - at least in his mind)and rather scary. Your son is not the only one who has a hard time, my son never again tried the scouts, though many people tried to talk me into trying it again. At least your son sees what he did was not appropriate. My little dictionary reading 6yo would NEVER have admitted that to me. He truly felt he was smarter than these men, and so he would never have admitted his behavior was wrong.
