    He got an LOA in Sept/Oct I think. . .. and he accepted his appointment in January. It is only by God's grace that I can say, he will be attending the academy come July!

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    I was so afraid with him going to basic/ait that he would get injured and disqualified. NEVER did I ever think it would be either of the other two. My heart has been broken and only time will heal it I hope.

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    I appreciate your honesty wholeheartedly and I agree with all your sentiments. There is no positive spin and I am sorry if I implied one. The only thing I can stand on is living a life driven by faith. Everything happens for a reason. . .good, bad, and sometimes not fair. I feel terrible for...

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    Thank you for your response. You hit the nail right on the head with an aspect of this situation my husband and I have argued over in private. My husband has commented that it is my fault because I let him get a job. I'm not revealing this to bash my husband, but of course, I have thought...

    Thank you for your response. He is good to GO! Only by God's grace!! I pray that this would be his first and his last encounter with standing on the wrong side of anything having to do with the law. Before this incident, he has always been a 'good' example for anyone to follow. . .we can...

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    Thank you for your response. Just like you said, I asked and have continued to ask "why". Because of our faith, I know that the answer is because the devil is a liar and he wants us to be liars too. He comes to steal, kill, and destroy that which God calls for good. But by the Grace of...

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    Curiosity is a good thing =) My son has wanted to join the Army since he was 17 years old. Even after he got his appointment, he has been so anxious to 'get his time started' I guess you could say. He has had so much *fun* going through his OST (i think that's what my husband said it is...

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    I am thankful and relieved to say, that through the grace of God, he has kept his appointment. We are moving forward from this a stronger family with lessons learned we thought were already clear. It is unfortunate that my son decided to learn the hard way that sin is never hidden and that...

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    I have to say that I agree that this poor decision he made was/is a very big deal. Every time I try to wrap my brain around the thought process I feel down as a parent. There was no 'reason' he shouldn't or couldn't have made his purchase outright. We have the financial means, he had the...

    Thank you so much for the explanation. . .as someone who has gotten 1 speeding ticket when I first started driving at the age of 16, I am a little naive to these types of procedures. The GREAT News is he was able to keep his appointment! Praise the Lord!!! He is more excited and even more...

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    Thank you for your response!! We also have 4 children. . .this one happens to be the oldest and expected to be a good example to his siblings. He is definitely a great young man who we are very proud of except for this very poor choice; which we still can not comprehend. We are praying that...

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    He has indeed learned a lesson! And yet my heart seems to re-brake every time I think of this situation. I know we all want to hold ourselves to high standards especially morally, but in truth yes we all fail. We are a family of faith as well and has continued to support one another by...

    Seeking Direction on Poor Choice Made

    He was not arrested. A citation was given to him with a date to appear in court. He contacted the DA immediately who in turn had him complete that program online prior to his court date. When he showed up and the judge called his name, the DA said something to the effect of 'program such and...
