I found this of particular interest since my daughter is in the military. I was a little upset with the Tribune’s constant reminder that his mom, Maggie, was upset with his decision.

It seems that they want to make this sensational. Since Maggie is battling cancer, I am sure many things upset her. However, I find this an invasion of her privacy in an odd way. I think we all would have guessed that his parents would be surprised that after receiving an MBA, that he would turn around at age 29 and join the military. ’
Which one of us wants our children in battle? Not me for sure! But I can tell you I am very proud of my daughter, her service to our country, and how much she has grown in maturity through her service. I am sure that when the Mayor’s son graduates from boot camp that they will be very proud of him. All along the way they will see the sacrifice that our young are making. It is really commendable.
