Military is not for everyone; so a "lady" in Cleveland disagrees...more power to her....
Sounds like an College student's send-up letter to "Abby"...
I never said the military was or should be for everyone. However, our veterans should not be gawked at in an attempt by a mother to dissuade her kids from signing up.
"However, our veterans should not be gawked at in an attempt by a mother to dissuade her kids from signing up."
I understand your issues with Abby and what you believe was her intent. Still, the advice was sound. Her advice again...
"Contact your nearest veterans hospital and inquire about you and your children paying some visits and volunteering to help wounded vets."
Sounds good to me.
"...our veterans should not be gawked at in an attempt by a mother to dissuade her kids from signing up."
It maybe the right thing, if some 17/18 year old can be persuaded by "Mommy" to not enlist, that may be a good thing....
