if the kid chooses to become a police officer, a firefighter, or yes, even a soldier.

These are all people who are totally under-appreciated by our society. It takes a real man (or woman) to do any of these jobs -- anyone who does any of this work is, IMO, superior to the rest of us in special ways.

"Ted doesn't have a kid, so he wouldn't know the fears a parent has to go through if the kid chooses to become a police officer, a firefighter, or yes, even a soldier."
