<p>lol…the father would HAVE NO SAY whether his child opts for the military. (god, what a tyrant! You sure you want this jerk as a friend? I hope that you’re nicely pressuring him and teaching him not to be a (insert nasty word here). And, I feel sorry for his wife, too. </p>
<p>Anyway…sounds like the dad is one of those jerks that is afraid that his kid is smarter than he is and will do better than he did. And, for that reason, I’m cheering that he leaves his old man in the dust career-wise. </p>
<p>The son needs a free ride…and he doesn’t have to go to a NY school for that. </p>
<p>This kid needs MORE than free tuition. He can’t borrow enough for room, board, etc. So, just getting free tuition from a SUNY or wherever will NOT be enough. </p>
<p>Look at the Free Rides thread. Hopefully all the scholarship deadlines haven’t passed. </p>
<br>
<br>
<p>Uh…no…it’s his WIFE’S money, too. He seems to ignore that fact. What an @$$</p>
<p>I say, help the son get where he needs to be…and then kiss-off that jerk.</p>
