[quote=Anonymous]From the 10th grade, our son has talked about enlisting in the Navy. As parents, it wasn’t our preference, but it’s what he wanted and what he ultimately did. He is in boot camp right now. While we didn’t discourage enlisting, we also didn’t encourage it either- we pushed college more, but that’s not what he wanted. He signed up the summer after he graduated high school. He is 18 years old and we aren’t going to force him to goto college, which he certainly could have done- he was National Honor Society in HS. Even though his Navy career has just started we are proud of him. He is doing exactly what he wanted to do and is excited about his future in the Navy. We’re excited for him too.[/quote]
