Eagle Scout, eh?  Sounds like it was a bad idea gone good.  Seems like
you've got some great kids there.  I'm afraid if I try that line with my son
he'll join a militia group, dress in camo, go out in the woods, shoot guns
and swill kegs of beer!

....Hmmm....

Hey, Laura!  Remember that Disney cruise you wanted to try for vacation this
summer?  I just thought of something a lot more fun!!!

My threat was if you are going to act like an animal you can sleep outside
with them.  The boys thought it was a neat idea, set up a tent, sleeping
bags, and scouting gizmo's (one received his Eagle Scout rank last summer)
Sometimes you can't help lose for trying.
