Today, a coworker said, "I wish we had the Girls Scouts." Well, I don't. I was a Brownie, then a Girl Scout briefly. Sure there are benefits to young girls gathering into a tribe-like group, earning merit badges and selling cookies; however, I'm glad my daughter doesn't feel the pressures of wearing a uniform to school, getting the most badges, selling the most cookies.
