Hello and welcome back to the campfire! Today we are replaying an episode we felt would be perfect not only as we celebrate our Independence Day, but also to go along with our Home Education Series. We have found a lot of families are asking about the different options available for their teens after graduation. College is not the only option, nor is it for everyone. So today we talk about a career in the military and some of the requirements to join.  We try to speak generally since all services are different and everyone's experiences differ.  I'm sure we missed something but we tried to hit on the important areas. If you do have a teen, stay tuned for more episodes later in the series.  We will have guests on to speak about homeschooling highschool as well as transitioning to college for those who chose that path.   So grab a seat by the fire as we discuss what the military path can look like and the benefits it has brought for our family.
