I want to tell my mom that I joined a class called AFJROTC (Air Force Junior ROTC) where the mission is to provide enhanced academic, leadership, community service, and physical fitness opportunities and experiences. My mom is scared that they're going to brainwash me and make me join a branch of the military after I graduate high school. It is true that you can earn a scholarship to the Academy, but my grades aren't anywhere NEAR good enough to get into the Academy, not that I want to anyways. I don't want to join the military, and they don't brainwash people. I'm in that class because I want to learn how to earn respect for myself and my peers. I want to learn how to present myself in an appropriate manner. But most of all I want to be able to discipline myself, and all of this is what AFJROTC can do for me. Also, when I graduate high school, they can help me find a job focusing on what I like to do. Next year I'll be working on the AFJROTC website because I love working with computers and Dreamweaver. So all in all, AFJROTC isn't a bad class, but my mom won't believe me.
I have 2 things to request:
1. How should I tell her I joined
2. Would you write your (good) experiences with AFJROTC if you have had any?
