Best to finish high school. Have serious chat with parents … they can be part of it or when you finsih school and turn 18 … ???… and it also comes down to what and where you want ot go with the military. it’s a big decision in unstable times … inclued your parents even if you argue at first … you will want them as part of this in the long run. see what the recruite4rs offdr you … and you always get the better deal after a high school deploma !!!

High Technical and /or Medical MOSs and 20 years with good planing can set you up pretty good by 40. But remember the world is at a major political mess and War (Major War) is a possability … you want to include your parents and any serious girlfriend/putential wife. and if your going to do it be serious about it … you might as well go full time and go for the best deal possable.

but above all don’t exclude your parents at a tiome like this … yes its a gamble, but if planned well it can lead to a rewarding good start to life. You are going to want your parents a part of this if you are truely serious.

You’ll be over 18 so you’ll do what you want to. You finish highschool at 18 don’t you? I also wanna go to the army because I read a very cool book about that

Answer #3

once you are out of high skewl, she cant stop you from joining the army. its all your choice, and after 18 she cant make that desicion for you

Answer #4

I would definatly talk to her and tell her your reasons of why you want to join! after a while I think she will learn to respect your decision, and if not you will be old enough to make your own choices in life when you get out of high school. good luck to you!!

Answer #5

I want to join the army really soon after university or summin like that, my mum doesn’t want me to go either, its because she doesn’t want to loose you, see you go away somewher dangerous. shes you mum, she has the most closest bond to you. my friends are the ones who are begging me not to go. :) explain to her that you want to do this, you know of the consiquences that are possible. you considered every aspect of the job. show her how much you love her but you want to join.. good luck mate.

Answer #6

I can very well see your moms view because it has to be a lot of stress if you do get sent somewhere not knowing if your ever coming back or not, and also because that may not be a steady job for your whole life. If you would really like to go then yes I do think that you should tell her so she has time to prepare herself for that call that she might get saying that she is never going to see her son agian, and also because she needs to be able to say her goodbyes.
