I am so disappointed with Madison's brownies. Actually I am quite upset. I need to figure something else out to do with it.

They have a really big troop (over 20 girls) so back in Oct they split them up into two groups. Older/more experienced and younger/new Brownies. Madison was in the younger group b/c it is her first year.

Sooooooo...... This week her group was doing something where they had to wear old clothes that could get dirty. Ok... the leader sent an email after the meeting stating what they did and info on the next meeting... uh.. how come madison didn't come home with a flower pot she should have painted? How come she came home with an invitation for a party that her group is hosting??

So, I started asking Madison about the meeting. What did she do? What girls are in her troop?? She starts to list off all the girls in the older troop. I asked her do you always go with them? Yes.
So I emailed the leader and asked her what is going on. What troop IS she in??? She says that Madison is in her troop but that "Sometimes the girls
just stay with the wrong half of the troop. We haven't been very
tight about the rule since most of the time we work on similar
things. As we go into spring though it will be more important that
they are with the correct patrol. The older girls will be gearing all
of their projects towards getting ready to fly up to Juniors and the
Unique Unicorn Patrol will of course be working on lots of fun try-
its."

So... don't you have a list?? Don't you notice when one girl is in the wrong group?? Isn't that part of your responsibility to make sure all the girls are in the correct place?? So, that tells me that TWO adults (the one in the group she was in incorrectly, and the one in the group she should have been in) didn't care? Didn't notice?

This is the only homeschool troop anywhere near us (and it's 35 mins away) but I am really thinking of doing something different. I just don't know what! She really likes GS and has fun. But I am getting so with it!


thanks for the vent I feel a little better now

Isn't the whole idea of brownies that the girls are having fun and learning with their peers in a SAFE environment?? I think safe would include int correct troop/group!!! sorry this is happening to you. Is your DD complaining about the girls she is with??

My mom doesn't want me to get a job, so it's gonna have to be school! She knows if I start working I won't want to go back to school at all. So I'm thinking about taking summer classes
