AIBU to think my DD should have more Brownies badges by now?

[UndertheCedartree]

My DD joined Brownies when she was 7 and a half. She was there 6 months before Lockdown. Brownies continued online on Zoom but she didn't get on with that. So she only started back in September when they started meetings again. She is 9 and a half now. So to be fair she's not been there that much over the 2 years.

I'm not sure exactly when she would leave Brownies but I think at 10 or 10 and a half. She is therefore keen to get her Gold Award which is the top badge a Brownie can get. We went through all the badges she has and she only had Communication as the only badge that counts towards the Gold Award. I thought she should have more by now?

Just to be clear this is not a dig in any way at the fantastic leaders that run Brownies. I am eternally grateful for these volunteers giving up their own time to run an amazing group and making it really affordable for me. My DD has just come back from Pack holiday (where she got the Communication badge) and she loved it so much. It was a lovely experience for her with clearly so much work having gone in to running it.

Do you think it possible she has just missed being given the badges? Any advice from Guiding insiders would be welcome!

@sparkle12345 - I made it quite clear in my OP that I know they are volunteers and I am very grateful.

@Draggondragon - you find it sad my DD wants to work towards an award?? Why? What on earth has it got to do with having a job and a life outside the house??

@julieca - no keeping a pet badge anymore. There aren't that many so not necessary things they are already interested in. My DD would love a pet badge!

@Draggondragon - I think you've completely misread this. I asked the question purely because my DD has said she would like to get the Gold Award. I couldn't care less, in fact it would be easier not having to help her with the badges. I do feel guilty for being unwell and not able to help her but that is only because she is so keen to get this award which she won't be able to because of lack of help at home plus her not being able to cope with Zoom meetings.
