The family life badge is one of the easiest Eagle required merit badges to get. Its purpose is to show scouts the importance of families, as the most basic forms of social organizing. The only downside is that the process of getting enough brownie points at home and getting this badge can last very long. Some of the requirements demand the utmost dedication and patience, and you will need more than two months for their completion.
