Let's hear it for our spouses!
Warning In Progress
I am not sure what a solution is, other than for our leadership to keep it in mind. We need to realize and recognize the contributions of our spouses as we carry out our mission as professionals. When I was a new DE at the Northeast Region all-hands in 2002, my wife heard the message several times that the BSA appreciates what she does at home in supporting my efforts in the field. Although the 2008 national gathering also had a spouse's program, I am not sure we heard that message as clearly as we did in 2002 in the region. For those of us that are married, and married with children, our spouses do alot at home, often in our absence on nights, weekends, and other random times. Let's remember to show appreciation for our employee's spouses regularly.

We should all say “thanks!” to our spouses on a regular basis. We’ll continue to keep this in mind as we go forward.
