They sure do.

 

My mom is the type of woman that cries at the thought of her little baby growing up. It kinda worries me tbh.

 

I was killin' terrormarizers by 25. It's never easy for parents to let their kids go adult.

 

Did you tell your family that you joined the military?

 

My dad was giving me tips and making sure the recruiter wasn't screwing me (he was an active duty Master Sergeant in a combat MOS at the time), my mom let me use her car to drive back and forth to the recruiters. Mom was worried, dad was super proud.

 

My dad isn't my brothers biological dad, so he let him do any career he wanted... In this case it was nursing. My dad has always wanted me to be involved with the government, State government being the lowest. He kind of brain washed me to fall in love with law/immigration enforcement. My mom hates my career choice, but there's nothing she could really do. She didn't want me to go to the US Navy as my plan C, but my dad is all for it.

 

YEP, Your parents love you. I too was out by 18, working with local bands and a PA Company. My first road trip with Canned Heat, I was still IN High School! Did a months worth of homework on the road and turned it in. By the time I was 23, I WASN'T travelling on the road! It was a "semi-safe" way to see most of America!

 

I moved out at 17 and got married at 19. Had our first kid when we were 20. It’s definitely not the easiest way but it made us who we are today so no regrets

 

Navy is a lot safer than army or marines.

 

I turned 18 my senior year, moved in with a friend after graduating before trade school. Moved from Virginia to go to trade school in Houston, moved to north Carolina to work for Saturn as a service tech, some life happened and i was in the army 8 days before my 24th birthday. Stationed at Fort Hood 6 years ago, don't want to live in another state. I've been to 36 states and 17 countries.

 

I don't want to have kids before the age of 30, unless I'm in a relationship in which we both have steady, great paying jobs.

 

No worries brother!

 

Smart move. My 20s were awesome, thanks to being single. No attachments. Now that I'm in my 30s, I'm more relaxed and having a family is definitely awesome. I've been engaged 4 times, though, so thankfully i made the right choice on the fourth. Couldn't be any happier.

 

You only have 1 little boy right? Having a boy is cheaper on the long run, and looks way more fun being a dad.

 

It's a lot of fun, but a lot of work. It's rewarding on the worst days. I wouldn't trade it for anything.

 

@ALI3N_123 you asked a while back what I called the gray mile. Finally remembered to take a pic of the corridor from Pac to mine

 

The relationship that me and my dad have developed once I started getting older is something I wouldn't trade for anything in the world. We have a "rugged love" type of relationship in which we roast each other, and enjoy a couple beers together.

 

That’s great

 

It was Joey.






Thanks for remembering though!
