Alright ladies, I need some input! Here's my story. I've been in the military (guard) for 10 years. My contract is up so the minute I get back from Iraq I have the option to get out.
DH has been in for 3 years, has 3 more to go, and he wants to do a full 20 years. I have a kick a$$ civilian career, so I dont need the retirement, but it is an incentive.
Anyway, we want to have kids when we get home. He wants to stay in and I feel like one of us should get out so we're not both deployed with children. But on the flip side, how do you walk away from something thats been a part of your life
for ten years? The military is a lifestyle most people don't understand, and I don't know if Im ready to give that up.
That being said, I don't want to deploy with children... but am I ready to walk away??
AHHH what do I do???
