I understand the "boys will be boys" ideology, but in today's society, if we do not watch more closely, it will become more regulated. Try to shoot a gun at a scout camp, repel down a rock wall, or anything. Because of lack of Scoutmaster monitoring and ignorance, these things are almost not a challenge. Kids do not hold guns anymore, no one actually belays while repelling as the ropes are so anchored and controlled. That is what I am discussing. We can't even take kids deep into the woods on backpacking trips like the unless we have been Wilderness First Responder trained. Water events require a fully certified lifeguard because "boys will be boys" attitude by scout masters.
