My son is considering joining the Marines next year. What should we be asking recruiters?

46. I dont have any suggestions except that I do think its a good career move for many kids.

The military really takes care of their own and you tend to develop strong friendships with the people you serve with. Good for kids who may have social skill issues. I have a number of relatives who served in the Air Force.

We also have a young boy who loves playing with soldiers and combat videos and combat strategy. We think he might be interested in serving in the military when he grows up. We are not going to dissuade him if he chooses that route.

Please keep us updated on how things turn out.

Good luck!
