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:

• 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.
• Support his leadership and service, highlighting him “leading his Scout troop” and working through rain on his park renovation Eagle project.
• 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?
