First off I commend your son for wanting to join. Yes the benefits are great, the money they are offering is tempting. But the reserves are the first to go and the last to leave in this war. Your son is doing an honorable thing. Being scared is only your right.. But your son is coming to you for support and encouragement. I know it may be hard to do. I wish you all the luck and support in the world. I have many family members and friends in Iraq, Bahgdad, Qwuiat (i know i spelled it wrong), and more sitting on ships in the sea waiting for the next move. It's not easy but we are the strongest thing to their faith that they have, we must be strong and support them and show them all the love that we can. |
