Our family and friends think we're crazy. No military here. DS has an academic merit full ride to his 2nd choice school -- AROTC is good there, but #1 he likes better and ROTC tends to do better in comparison. He's willing to go SMP or whatever it takes to make this school work for him.
Yes, we found this group in December - it is so great to have like minded(even if we are nut jobs) parents to talk with - like finally finding the perfect pre-school or something when they were little tykes.
Your DS is very accomplished....I know you are proud!
I do feel a bit nutty. Because we move all the time with the military, finding schools has always been a big job for me. I have homeschooled at times too when stationed in less desireable places. We are the only military in our great big family and they all think we are crazy. They always ask, "When is DH's time up?" as if he were serving a prison sentence. Ha! I explain, "this is his career and he absolutely loves what he does." "What about you? When is your time up?" They look at me with apologetic eyes. Ha!
So, let's find out already so we can all work towards some inner peace.
