Gain Attention: The Boy Scouts of America is an outstanding organization for establishing a foundation for young boys to become men and to learn life skills to help them thrive in their later years. Back during its humble beginnings from Lord Baden Powell in England on Brown Sea Island, the Boy Scouts of America has carried on the tradition of making quality citizens ever since 1910. However, with new shifts in political correctness and issues involving equality for various groups, the Boy Scouts of America is facing problems in 108-year-old policies to maintain their traditions while being an equal-access opportunity.

After the Boy Scouts decision to accept girls in the program, Mark Hemmingway’s article titled “The Boy Scouts Admit Girls, Failure” posted on October 13, 2017 stated that “earlier this year, the [Mormon] church … was pulling 185,000 older teens out of scouting programs.” With the latest policy change in switching from Boy Scouts of America to Scouts, BSA, Lindsay Elizabeth’s article from “FaithWire” posted on May 9, 2018 claims that “already 425,000 boys have dropped out of the organization thanks to [the Church of Jesus Christ for Latter-day Saints] cutting ties.” The Boy Scouts of America faces dwindling membership numbers and are fighting to increase membership while remaining politically correct.

In an article by Doug Donovan titled “In the Wake of Controversial Vote on Gay Ban, Boy Scouts of America Braces for Backlash” posted on June 20, 2013, “Assemblies of God … have announced they will cut off financial support to Scout troops because of objections to admitting gay boys.” III.
