I would say that it all depends on the scout troops available to you in your area. For instance, the one I was in was little more than a street gang. We were just perfect little shits that even went to so far as to force one of our troop masters out via pranks (although he deserved it). The trouble was that there was little to do but go camping. A lot of merit badges were out of reach because there was no one to teach them. Likewise the eagle scout or explorer program.
OTH, I have a couple of friends who lead a scout troop now and it completely stands up to the ideals and concepts of scouting. I wish I could be a kid again so I could join that troop.
