Sea Salt. What you are experiencing isn't unusual or new. I joined the Marine Corps as a tender 18 year old from the hills of Oregon. After recruit training (which, I'm sure you know, is infamous) and being stationed at Parris Island after graduation, I was a totally different person. Strong, extremely capable, well trained in the art of war and survival, confident beyond measure and much, much older than my peers back home. My mother often spoke of that in her later years...the shock of change that took place In me...how proud she was that I was serving in the Corps and how proud she was I came through that recruit training and my hitch a better person. I was not her little girl anymore. I was her daughter...a fully rounded woman, who could probablty kill ya with one hand....,ha., I loved the Corps...and the Navy (where many of my relatives served) and to this day, I am living that life...inside my head, in my demeanor, in my personal life....and I'm pushing 75, I watch my grandson over the past 3 years as he's grown into a man, a warrior, a Sailor......a strong and confident young man of 24. Gone forever is that "Munchkin" of mine whom I doted on and enjoyed all of his young life. I see now a womderful man, fully capable of making his own life... In my heart, I hold that Munchkin....and always will. In my eyes, I'm proud to see this wonderful man.

Sea Salt: she is becoming an adult and needs to find her place. Focus on the good parenting job you have done and she will come around. I have been praying that God will surround all our Sailors with good friends who know Him.

Thanks everyone for the encouraging words. I am letting her be an adult, it's just tough on this mama. Esp being so far away. I have to let her make her own mistakes and learn by them. I don't usually vent to strangers or start drama, but I just needed to hear from other parents on this issue. She's a good kid deep down, I hope it comes back! Thanks again all!
