It looks like the kid going into the military might be one of his few remaining options. I see the military as a way for him to have a structured environment while learning things that will help in later in life, whether he stays in the military or not. Some questions:
1) Why did you join up?
2) What did it do good for you?
3) What did it do bad for you?
4) Do you recommended any branch more/less than another? He was in AF ROTC for a year in college and my father was in the AF, so he's leaning towards it, but apparently they are having some severe $$$ problems.
5) If you had to do it again, would you?
6) Any other advice?
Thanks - this is obviously not something that's being entered into lightly, but if he keeps on the path he's on, he's going to be an uneducated bankrupt father of 10 and living in a trailer eating ramen for the rest of his life
