AMT459-They do not want America’s youth prepared | As a Man Thinketh

When a single snowflake shuts down North Carolina, most folks hide indoors.
But not our local Scout Troop.
While schools closed and parents retreated to home offices, a group of young men asked to tackle an 8-mile hike in real snow, at 5,000+ feet, in freezing temperatures—and that was an opportunity we refused to waste.
This video dives into why outdoor challenge, leadership, and rural skills matter more today than ever. Our youth aren’t “broken”—they’re simply not being given the real-world experiences that build confidence, grit, and character. That’s exactly why we created the Rural Youth Development Fund at Meet My Neighbor Productions: to support programs that restore resilience, teach tradition, and prepare the next generation of rural America.
We also address head-on the political noise surrounding youth organizations like Scouts. Should we abandon them because of controversy? Or should strong men and strong communities lead from within?
Here’s our take—principled, grounded, and focused on what matters most: the kids.
