My son confessed to me last week that he has been hanging around with recruiters.

I already have him ready and enrolled to start college in the fall.

I asked him why he was doing that,

He told me that every time he goes to the mall they are always there

So I asked him what he was doing about it

He said that he was getting a lot of free meals.

I told him I was going to kick his butt.

Like the good and loving mother that you are.

He, he, I tell you ECK I will kick his butt, but I love him to much, actually he said that the recruiters are in the mall at night fishing for the young men and women, because is summer and they are hanging around in there everyday.

After all we live in GA in a small town is nothing else to do for young teens but the mall, I rather have him in there than doing something else.

That's funny. In AIT, the only things to do were to go to the PX and church to get away from it all. Sounds familiar.

What branch is he interested in? Is it because of his dad? ( I mean, is it b/c he admires what his dad has done?)

My son is not interested in joining at least that's what he said, but actually he was talking a couple of month ago about the Air force.

But thankfully that is over with.

I hope for your sake, that he choses to pursue another path.
