This is a trial basis and they want to know how we will practice social distancing etc, We came up with a plan. Then we have a tropical storm hit and we have 75 to 80 percent chance of rain tonight. So I meet with the key three and we push the meeting back. So of course I have that one parent who has to tell me I am wrong, safer in the rain, etc. while he does not know the back story. He had some good points and I did thank him for his feedback and will forward his feedback to our senior patrol leader, committee chair and chartered org rep, but as the Scoutmaster, I get to wear the target. I knew this going in and I knew this dad likes to make suggestions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution Kirby Posted September 21, 2020 Solution Share #18 Posted September 21, 2020 My Mother used to tell an old family story about some relative of her father's (I think an aunt) who would come to visit them in the summer. This relative was named Bertha and Bertha was quite willing to let my grandmother do all the shopping, cooking and cleaning and generally wait on Bertha. Bertha's one attempt to help was when after the meal was finished and my grandmother was picking up the dirty dishes to wash them all by hand, every so often Bertha would bring in a big dirty serving dish that my grandmother had momentarily left on the table while she cleaned some other dishes and made room in the kitchen. Bertha would come in with the dish which then required my grandmother to stop what she was doing and try to make room for the dish by the sink and Bertha would say with a satisfied tone "Here, you missed this". So whenever someone in my family would offer a suggestion, or take some action, that was utterly unhelpful and only created more work for others we'd say sarcastically "Thank you, Bertha". I get the feeling this Scout Dad is really a Bertha. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
