Reluctant Son, How hard to push?

<p>Zackwheat finishing things is always an important lesson. You are right he will have to make the final decision if an offer is extended. Like we discussed before your family knows your son best, and each child/candidate is different. Some will require more support, and some will require less.</p>

<p>I would still recommend a visit so he can make a decision with first hand observation. For your younger son you should consider Teen Aviation Camp (Your local base services squadron youth center sponsors this program) if it is his sophmore to junior summer, and AF Summer Semminar if it is his Junior to Senior summer. Both programs will give a small slice of cadet life and USAFA life. Best part about Teen aviation camp is most bases now fully fund the program. We payed Potters airfare and they paid the rest. Now they even pay airfare.</p>
