In 1904, Lieutenant-General Robert Baden-Powell was at ill-ease about the state of youth in Britain. As an honored veteran, Baden-Powell witnessed how young, youthful boys were “drifting into hooliganism for want of guiding hands to set them on the right road.” Eventually, these troubling behaviors led him to start the thought process of making Britain’s youth more responsible and productive.
