    What gets sticky is you sign a contractual agreement with the military that you will sort this kinda stuff out in the event you get shipped out. Regardless, I wish her luck.

    SoF is right, you actually give up your rights when you take the oath of enlistment and are then subject to the military's orders. refusing to do so is punishable under the uniform code of military justice.

    she should have had plenty of time to line something up. it may be a very shitty situation for both mother and child, but it's not as if she's the only person leaving someone behind while heading overseas.

    I would have been severely reprimanded if I answered a phone while in class when I was at school. Why should that kid get special treatment just because his mother does a dangerous job?
