Crows do Soar with Eagles: How to cope with “difficult” Scouts: Every troop has those scouts who are challenges to both peers and adult leaders. He comes in all ages, shapes, race, and socioeconomic backgrounds. He may be labeled ADHD, at times not a team player, or not be advancing. He can aggravate his peers and frustrate adult leaders. Secretly, in the back of our mind, if we’re honest with ourselves, part of us says, “Our troop would be better if he didn’t come.” But he keeps coming. We’ll discuss divorce, health issues, school and church partnership, and techniques for coming alongside the most troubled scouts and how to integrate them into our overall program giving them a sense of purpose and belonging.
