Best Answer

Persons enlisting in the military may enlist at 17 (in cases such as National Guard split op, or persons who are graduating high school at 17) with parental consent, but most people who enlist are unable to do so until they turn 18, and once you're eighteen, your parents can't force your decisions, at least under the principle of statutory law. As the old saying goes: "My property, my rules". Additionally, enlistment contracts for the military have to be signed willingly by the potential recruit anyway, so no.

If you join the military will your childsupport stop?

My son's father is in the military and pays child support. I want to join the military and was wondering will my child support stop or change. Can anyone help me with this matter?___________________________Being in the military has no effect on child support, for either of you. However, you should make arrangements for child care and custody in the event that you are both deployed overseas at the same time, which is a common problem when both the mother and the father are on active duty. Having a minor child to care for will not get you out of a deployment.Ken MitchellLT USN (ret)
