Am I a failure?

<O:p</O:pI got married at 36. Our son was born with two birth defects. One was repairable with surgery and we never told him about it because the defect was located in an embarrassing place. The other was irreparable. It's located in his left eye and prevented him from joining the Marines; which was really heart-breaking for our son since he has loved military stuff ever since he was a little boy; but at least we didn't get him back from the Mideast in a casket or with pieces of his body torn off by an IED.

C.L.I.F.F.

I'm sorry to hear that. My son who weighed less than 6 lbs got hung up at birth and his skull was cracked. It kept him out of the military too.
