<p>Djffro –I do not know your son, and my comments were not directed specifically at you. They were general comments. As parents we want our kids to be happy – we want to know that they made the right choice. It is such a relief to hear that they are doing well, and it is so hard to watch them struggle. My point is that most parents will see both sides of that coin at some point. We have seen both sides in this thread already - and the new cadets have only traveled 12 days into their 1400+ day journey….Fair warning - the emotional roller coaster has only just begun ;)</p>
