"The object of the patrol method is not so much saving the Scoutmaster trouble as to give responsibility to the boy."

Being a Boy Scout saved my life. I was a bookish, introverted kid, shy and withdrawn, unhappy and easily bullied. I was also gay, although I didn't know it yet. I should've been miserable. But being a scout got me out of myself and into the world.
