This is just one of the MANY reasons why I don't think women should be in the military...

pretty interesting story. I think what happened she submitted the plan, they had a trial run and the grandmother said she couldn't take care of the kid. So then the mother tells whoever, they tell her too bad she submitted the plan, and rather then thinking it through as now here child will more then likely be in foster care, she skipped her deployment.

Wow, what a sensitive subject. I don't blame her at all for doing what she did- hopefully the consequences are not too severe.

Really really tough call here. I don't blame her, but at the sametime, this isn't going to end well for her, and I also understand and agree with that.
Lose-lose situation here. -

The Army isn't the one who decided to become a single mother without any support from the father or her own family.
This woman is a turd, plain and simple. Nobody should feel sorry for her, she did this to herself. Now the taxpayers are likely going to have to foot the bill to raise this idiot's little rat.Stitches likes this. -
I'm torn on this too. Without hearing both sides equally on this I don't think we should start judging her. Did she join the Army as a single parent? Was she in a relationship when she had the baby? These are important pieces of info...

It's funny that with all the ****ty parenting, child abuse and neglect that goes on these days some are willing to bash this mother.
And she was a ****ing cook for christs sake. Huge loss by not being deployed.Frumundah Finnatic, alen1, SICK and 2 others like this. -
I find this entire post to be based highly on assumption and a bit offensive. We know very little about her situation other than it's a pretty tough set of circumstances.

Frankly, I don't care WHY she entered the military. It doesn't matter. The fact is that she entered, and now is reneging on her obligation to serve. She is a turd. -

As far as your comment goes, no, she shouldn't pay back all the benefits she has received. She has served time. If she received a bonus, it will be prorated for what she has served, and the remaining time on her contract would have to be repaid. As far as taking away her benefits, she hasn't been charged yet. If she is, she will lose any college aid and health benefits, not to mention the possibility of facing jail time.
What you should do is spend time in boots and realize that situations arise that really are unescapable. If you have spent time in them, lighten up.Frumundah Finnatic, dolfan32323, HolliFinFan and 10 others like this. -

Besides, the whole story doesn't matter. They weren't married or planning on getting married.
Yet another shameless single mother who is a burden on the rest of us. :pity: -

Come on Stitch.... really?
Our govt. is giving out Billions to millionaires who ran busniesses into the ground without any checks and balances and you're concerned that this lady who has been serving but just refused to leave her kid to deploy overseas should pay back benefits?
Obviously something needs to be done with this situation.
There needs to be some sort of punishment and a change of orders or just a dismissal from the military but what she's done here is nothing to be enraged over.LandShark13, dolphindebby, Clipse and 1 other person like this. -
But I'm concerned about the lady yes, because that's who the story is about. -
Because I think this woman who had a child out of wedlock and reneged on her duties is a turd, you think I am a bad person?
You disagree with me, so you attack me. Remind me again of who's the "close-minded idiot"? :pity: -

I'd be willing to bet everything I own that the number is staggeringly low. -
The crux, the blame should go on whoever told her she'd have to deploy anyway after her arrangements fell through and PUT HER CHILD IN FOSTER CARE.
That moronic sadist should be cleaning floors on the night shift, where he can't affect others instead of determining other peoples' fates.
Given that choice, I'd say 100 of 100 good mothers would do the same as this woman did.LandShark13, Frumundah Finnatic, 1armychick and 1 other person like this. -
i love when people who have never served offer so many actions on what should happen to this woman. IMO, if you haven't served in the military, your opinion really doesn't mean squat on how the military should handle their own.

I'm not absolving the woman of any fault in this but damn......."we need you to go work the grill, so give us your kid so we can put it in foster care"
There's just no way you can put that where it sounds the least bit acceptable.LandShark13, Frumundah Finnatic, 1armychick and 3 others like this. -
I guess no one should be allowed to talk in the pofo about government officials unless they've actually been in office, huh? -
