Answer 1

It seems to me that you both could use a little help.  The kid with his behavioral problems and at the very least, you with how to deal with him.  If the area you live in has instituted the 211 informational phone number that may help.  They can usually direct you to some sort of "mediation" service that will confront the problem head-on.  Otherwise, check around for other mediation services -- sometimes even a City's Neighborhood Watch program has one.

Good luck to both of you.

Answer 2

kill him, and bury him in the woods.

Answer 3

Want me to put a little HEX on him 4 u, TF? I already have my pentagram drawn, I just need his name and description, maybe his zodiac sign...

Hey, it's okay, my pentagrams have halos and wings!!!

Answer 4

I am an eagle scout and the SPL of my troop.

When I boy joins a troop, he and his parents generally sign a contract prohibiting this kind of behavior. The consequences are clearly written on the contract.

1. Talk with kid

2. Talk with parents

If this doesn't work, ask his parents to stop bringing him

Answer 5

Maybe you need to talk with him and his parents and remind him of the contract signed (I believe all scouting does this, I know my cousins do) and discuss how his negative and inappropriate behaviors do not follow the scouting mission.  If his parents do not agree, then you may need backup from other leaders, etc.

I would definetely push it back on this kid and let him know he needs to take accountability for his actions or he is unable to continue.

Answer 6

Being flippant in your first sentence doesn't make you sound like a serious and sober person - ie. one who is capable of being in charge of a load of young and boisterous boys.  You are their leader, not one of them.  That said, the kid you are on about sounds like a real pain in the neck.  I suggest you have a heart to heart with his parents about his behaviour.  By the way, whose job is it to make him leave?  If he proves too much for you, you should talk to a superior too.

Answer 7

You don't, it's ur duty to listen and guide. Ask another leader but do not tarnish the image of the scout.

Answer 8

Hello Triforce:

You need to take this boy aside and with your Scoutmaster discuss his attitude. It sounds like this boy really needs the Scouting program, but he doesn't want to participate. Perhaps you can determine why he is at the meetings, and what he wants to get from the program. You might assign him a task, that is challenging, and necessary to the group. Nothing demeaning, but something that will show his talents.

If he just doesn't want to be at the meetings, you may need to ask him to find another group that he would enjoy better.

Keep on Scoutin'
