A member asked:
How do i know if it is safe for my child to go on scout campouts? and i don't mean because of the animals.

Go with him: Become involved in the scouts and the troop. Depending on the age of the child, you may be required to go with him. Or you can go as a parent and chaperone. That way you will have the information you seek and peace of mind.

If You Are Not Sure: Dr. Ruiz-healy's response is excellent. I would add that if you are not sure, do not allow it.
