9. Unfortunately, I had the opposite experience

with my son in Boy Scouts.

He and the other two scouts with ADHD/ HS autism were treated like
second class citizens in our local troop.

Personally, I think it was the doing of the overbearing Scout leader's wife,
who ran the show.

She was/is an insufferable, bigoted, narrow minded bitch who wouldn't give these
three a chance if her life depended on it.

Her son, also a scout, was downright mean to them.
Some Eagle Scout he was.;(

I'm glad you have a positive experience.
I wish they had.

:hi:
