[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 364804, member: 1233"] Other than lying about it to begin with, it sounds like a very well thought out decision. If she can handle the structure there are a lot of opportunities in the military. I imagine she was afraid you would object because the wars. The military will probably work the lying habit out of her, which would probably be a good thing. Where is Liam going to be while she is in Boot Camp and later if she is deployed? Hopefully she has a safe place for him where he will get the security he needs. Given the way many of our kids do pretty well in the rtcs and hospitals, it seems that the structure of the military would be a good fit. Especially if they are motivated to provide a better life for themselves and their kids. Is there a chance she thought of this because she realized that before long Liam will be telling his friends what his Mommy does for a living? It would be really hard for most kids to tell their friends and teachers that Mommy is a dancer. I really hope and pray this is exactly what she needs to give herself a future and stability and to improve her self worth. Will keep her in my prayers! [/QUOTE]
