Another point for you. At 17 my DAUGHTER was working in the F117 as a jet engine Mechanic. At 18 she was holding an M4 onat a gate in Irak as SpecOps drove through with ALQuaida strapped across the hoods of hummers like Deer. At 20 she was Back on jets, this time the F22. Then the F35 as it went through trials. Today she is on the #2 plane in the AF inventory. Married, with two step kids.
She is 24.
I’d say she managed job security and youth just fine.
Good for her. Choices are good. You must be very proud of her strong commitment.
