Agree 100%, but we need to build people who are willing to serve for the sake of serving. Having worked with kids for 22 years I have seen a lot of potential and hope. I am sure your serving as a troop leader have seen the same. But, if our generation doesn't encourage honesty, integrity and character, and have sports and political leaders who they can look up to and aspire to be like, it's never going to happen.
We could go on forever talking about the bad influences they put up with, but it's everybody's job to build morality and character, if not us ,who?
