I'd hesitate to leave him with a little boy, for some reason.
When the Boy Scouts started making people like him Scoutmasters, their membership plummeted because normal people refused to let people like him take their boys on unsupervised camping trips.
The same day that happened two scoutmasters in the local branch of the Church I'm a member of - then the largest Boy Scout sponsor on earth - walked in to the Bishop's office and turned in their credentials. Unknown to us at the time, that was happening all over. The Church now sponsors Trail Life.
Those Scoutmasters understood what the Leadership of BSA did not, to their everlasting shame.
Where I grew up we had about 12 Troops in town. All sponsored by local churches. Almost every Scout Mast was retired service member. Ours was a Marine Sgt, Korean war vet. This guy was no nonsense and a great teacher of character. I still can't tie anything but a granny or square knot but boy do I remember many lessons on primative camping and basic survival.
