When I read the subject I first thought 'two falls out of three?'. My mother is 92 and I'm still a little leery of getting her on the wrestling mat.
I think it is probably sweet that boy scouts give their award pins to their moms. I spent a while in cub scouts and nothing like that happened.

This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

Good grief! All these scouters and not a single person knows how this ritual began and some have never even witnessed it???

Thank you. That being pinned was getting really weird.
