[quote=Anonymous]Agree with others that your 8th grader seems to be on a good track for federal government service. Also agree that too much pressure at this young age is not productive. What I would add as a military/Federal employment family, if your DC would be well suited for a federal government career is to talk to DC early and often about not using any drugs (even if legal in the jurisdiction where you live) or involvement in underage drinking. If federal government or military academy recruitment is looking to disqualify applicants from a large pool, these are the first to land in the "no" pile. Also, it can affect someone's ability to get a security clearance. Not insurmountable, but much tougher with these things in their background. [/quote]
