Post #936 by cforde 7/5/01 7:21:33 PM Reply	learning by example Congratulations on becoming a grandfather and on raising a daughter willing to handle her responsibilities. You (and your wife) must have done a lot right in the past 16 years. Good for you. Your continuing love and support for your daught will make dealing with the situation better for all involved. The new dad has a bunch of growing up to do. From what you've said he might be willing to do it, he just doesn't know how. Maybe the Army will teach him, if he sticks it out. fwiw, my step-sister, who is a single mom living on her own, is Valedictorian of her college graduating class. I'll put you, & your family, on my prayer list. Have fun, Carl Forde

Sounds like a reasonably generous program for the level of commitment, but the Reserves seem to be geared toward people with reasonable outside prospects. White guys in suits know best - Pat McCurdy
Post #989 by Steve Lowe 7/6/01 11:52:30 AM Reply	When I was in High School My best friend got my other best friend pregnant. They got married, he joined the Navy as he thought supporting his family was more important than finishing school. FFWD to today. They now have 3 kids, the oldest just had a child of his own (same situation unfortunately). They've been married nearly 20 years now, and have a great marriage and family. I know they are the exception, but good things can come of this :-) ----- Steve
