How will the parents cope?

[madmaggot]

On six o'clock news tonight, 4 brothers all joined up in the same regiment.
As a mother I don't know that I could cope with that.

Valium, probably. Must be a very mixed emotion of pride and immense worry.

Always think for the best...

[madmaggot]

In my experience one can cope with most things once they have occurred but the fear of what may occur can reduce a person to a gibbering wreak.
I just hope that they all come through it safely.

One child, four kids, thirty kids; it must be horrible for those left behind at home.
JTH is the one with the knowledge on this though.

I worry about all my friends who are serving, I can just imagine what parents go through.
