Ok. This is my first post here, I've been reading and keeping my mouth shut. Looks like I'm going to get infantry if my background check goes well. I'm an older guy and I have a great wife and 2 awesome daughters of 4 and 7. I was going to remain silent for the forsee able future, but something happened last night that has forced my hand. I was watching something on YouTube, some mountain training on truth duty Valor, and my 7 yo daughter caught some of it. She thought it was cool, then she said" but you probably couldn't join the army dad". I asked why not and she said " you could get killed". Can I get some input from you fine dudes on how to handle that discussion if I get the offer? My instinct is to not lie to my kids, but I'm a little bit unsure here. Ideas? Pros and cons? Thanks.
