So that's all I have to say, hope I offended no one. I just like to offer an opinion now and then. Peace.
Again, this is America and I was just voicing an opinion. That's all I have to say, and hopefully, we ALL can let it go now.
Is it helpful to dredge this back up just to say be nice? Personally, I think not.
When you get a less than helpful or polite response, you may choose to ignore it. That's about the most proactive thing one can do in an internet flail-ex. (flail-...
How about that old saying "If you have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all?" I am a fairly newbie Navy Mom on this site too. Lots of times I have been worried and have had questions but have NOT posted them because of answers like some of ...
Ooo, thanks for that website!
Here's another good website for getting to the truth of things. Specifically political things. If you hear a politician or pundit, left or right, spout off something that sound a bit fishy head to:

The flipside of "think before you reply" is of course, "think before you post".
I would respectfully ask everyone who is new to the internet to try practicing with google and snopes. Certainly experienced folks can answer questions, but I find th...
Oh please, let's just say, you answer things the way you do, everyone else will answer the way they do, ok? No Thumper's Mommy speeches needed.
The original poster claims to be former Navy themselves, having served 16 years. After 16 years of ser...
Hi Navywoman, this is a valid question! You were right in asking it here! I dont know the answer. As for the nasty answers, look past them. There are alot of good answers here and there are a few who have to "make waves". To those of you who think...
I agree w/those that are saying to let up... She was asking; that is how she was verifing the information... Even those that are "seasoned" don't know everything... Things change in the Military just like they change in our every day jobs... So if...
Achseh, I agree 100% of what you are saying but as we are military please remember Parents are not! They are an extension of the military so it never hurts to be a little kinder. Its one thing if your hanging around the MAG or Hanger but this is a...
Sesame Street has developed a video for kids whose parents are deployed and there are now many books out there for kids talking about deployment. Check your library and check out a few to read to them. They need to know they aren't alone and that ...
There will always be rumors and it's up to each individual to check the validity of something out before passing it along. Snopes.com is a wonderful resource that I recommend anyone use before passing along something such as this.
Asking here is ...
WOW, can remember what this site is for and supposed to be about. Why don't you just all jump down her throat. Navywoman asked a questions stating her son mentioned it to her..... HOW IS THAT SPREADING RUMORS??? Internet articles do not seem to ha...
Lady.
Thank you for the website. I will most definetly check it out. It was news to me, but then who really listens to the news 24/7. The Senate and Congress work until wee hours of the night when they want to pass something without everyone know...
Thanks Barbara
We seemed to have a problem with his first deployments. They claimed to have hated their dad until a week before he came home.

Debbie said… - Hi Navywoman! I read your response to the mom who has the son that is displaying fear. The Seabees drive in Convoys and have suffered some fatalities. My daughter is going to combat training next month. I have not given her a level of comfort that there won't be danger in war zones. I don't believe that they always stay in the green zone...

Pat said… - I just read your response to the mom whose son may possibly be suffering from PTSD. Let me tell you, your response was GREAT & I pray to God his mom listens to your advice & that this young man gets treatment asap. I use to be a psychiatric nurse & really miss it sometimes:) I can tell you were an excellent leader......compassion is a great quality:)

- Hi & welcome to Navy for Mom's:)) You will find a lot of answers, support and encouragement here. My daughter, Ashley (20), has been in the Navy since July 2007 and is an IT3 & my son Tim (19) has been in since Feb 2008 stationed on the USS Nimitz.. What is your son doing with the Navy?
