Would I be completely crazy to try to join the military as a mom at 1 and at age 25?

Question

I am desperate for a stable income. I grew up with my step dad in the army and he just retired last year. 
I took the asvab when I was 19 but stupidly didn’t go through with it. 
But tough times....calls for drastic measures lol

Answer

I just tried googling about the signing your rights away. Everything I found was regarding being a single parent. But you’re not a single parent and married so I don’t think it would be an issue. Talk to a couple recruiters and go from there. You never know until you try.

Answer

Are you prepared to leave your child for an entire year if you get deployed? That's a lot to miss out on.

Answer

I’m 25, in the Canadian army, and pregnant with my first. Highly doable, just be prepared to be away from your husband and child for training, deployment etc.

You will have to sign your rights away to someone else if you do
