My son leaves for basic training with the Marine Corps in 7 days.

I am so proud of him for his decision to serve, so impressed at his reasons for doing so, and so very afraid for him.

Any one else have children serving? How have you dealt with all of the feelings involved?

Yes, there are several of us with children in the military. I think, although I might have lost track, that LadyTex's son is the most recent to go through basic. The Military Support Thread is another thread you can check out. ../1187977/1073036.html>

There are a lot of feelings to be dealt with, reaching out is a good first step.

I'm not sure if I'm last or not, but I understand your feelings, mybbusername. It's hard, but you do get through it. I really do encourage you to post in the Military Support Thread, there will be lots of support for you there.
