[QUOTE="Shari, post: 348579, member: 1848"] I think the military is what saved difficult child 1 from continuing down the path he was on. However, he chose it, so... Also, unfortunately, they don't just take anyone anymore. However, I'm not sure how deep they dig to find out anything you don't tell them. They outright told difficult child 1 to lie on his app about being diagnosis'ed BiPolar (BP). And its not the Marine Corp of 10 years ago...difficult child 1 was a bit disappointed in some of the people that he graduated with. They don't boot people out anymore who don't make the cut....but they still make them toe the line. If there's anyway to make the military happen, I'm with Janet and Star, too. Sorry, GN. I respect your position and the position it put your husband in, and I admire him for having dealt with it. Thing is, tho, the military is the only place that takes away enough freedoms to make a difference with some of these kids...even Residential Treatment Center (RTC)'s don't do that. [/QUOTE]
