ATD does your family not understand how good you will have it as an officer in the military?
They got no clue but I don't think it's about lifestyle or money. It's all mental. Kaotic mentioned something about his mother's "bragging rights" which seems to be the case in my situation and something I noticed in other families as well.
My mom seems to be bothered with the fact that she might need to tell her friends who have Physicians & Lawyers as children that her son is "just" in the military.
I'm 100% committed to this decision. Just want to get rid of their passive aggressive remarks. It's one thing to deal with that shit when you're 19. At my age, I just want them to get off my back and accept me for who I am.
Thanks for all the comments and advice guys.
