I’m so glad I have my kids in scouts. It’s our third place, and I am now an assistant scoutmaster. I know there is controversy and history but ours is a very progressive troop, has been since its inception (we included girls before it was “allowed” and have a very diverse group of kids and adults).

They are growing up so much more grounded than some I see; being exposed to and relying on each other as they build their community. My oldest is staffing camp this summer, and I’m so proud that he’s making a good impact on so many young people.

Third spaces are hard to find, but find a good one, they make life worth it, they provide perspective and build relationships with people who have shared interests, leading to genuine freindship.
