What are the key techniques used by Janis Elspas in supporting her son’s journey to Eagle Scout?

I focus on a mix of pride, steady encouragement, and practical support.

From what I’ve shared, I:

1. Celebrate visible milestones, like posting about my “soon-to-be Eagle Scout,” his 24 merit badges, and his leadership on hikes and projects, so he feels seen and valued.
2. Support his leadership and service, highlighting him “leading his Scout troop” and working through rain on his park renovation Eagle project.
3. Do behind-the-scenes tasks, like carefully attaching all his merit badges to his sash, so logistics never hold him back.

Is there a particular part of the Eagle journey you’re most interested in—motivation, logistics, or leadership growth?
