12 Step to Stepford Status

Does anyone else find the personality merge between Polly Shore/Peewee Herman/Cher from Clueless an eyebrow-raiser when discussing potential Cub Scout leaders? Isn't it all just a little farcical? Doesn't it just scream, "Hi, I'm Polly-Peewee-Cher and I'll be your child molesting den leader today."??

Is it just me, or could we all use a little more information on what the program IS and a little less Hey little boy, want some candy? If you're a good little guy, I'll give ya a medal!

That's all I'm asking - just a little organized information from my meet and greet Cub Scout orientation. Really, I don't think that's much.

Oh, and another thing. That pledge thing droned out by the glassy-eyed and drooling pedophile standing with his khakis sagging and his two fingers in the air leaves me less than confident that this particular group of adults has much to teach my son other than how to become a Stepford Wife. Only 12 easy steps and they'll brainwash every nonconforming bit of individuality out of him.

So what does a mom do? Allow the kid to enjoy his little "Ima Joiner" moment, or stand for a little free thinking? We'll have to mull this one over.

Whoever said life isn't a battle apparently never had to deal with plastic figure heads who flunked out of Seminary.
