Input: So I’m a 19 year old asian male and I just recently dropped out of college to enlist in the military. I just feel like college isn’t the right thing for me to do atm and the Army is something I’ve actually wanted to be a part of for a long time. 

Now here’s the thing: My 50 year old mother and literally my entire family are trying to guilt me out of joining. I live with my mom in the US, while the rest of the family is scattered around Canada and Asia. Mom and Dad divorced a decade ago, and I have no siblings so its just been me and her. After I told my mom that I’m joining the Army she went crazy and begged me not to. “WHAT?!?! How could you do this to me? You’re just going to leave me here all alone? Who is going to keep me company and take care of me as I grow old?” 

She expects me to live at home with her and take care of her forever. I told her that I’m an adult and I am under no obligation to do that. I need to live my own life. She responded by telling me that I’m a horrible son that is ungrateful for the life she’s given me, while sobbing uncontrollably. What makes things even worse is that the rest of my family are on her side. 

“Your mom is going to be so lonely! Don’t you love her??” 

“She has no husband or any other kids, its your job to make sure she is okay.” 

“You’re a monster. She’ll most likely kill herself due to the loneliness, and it’ll be on you. All because you wanted to play soldier.” 

All of this has been keeping me up at night, and I’m even starting to second guess my decision. I don’t want my mom to kill herself, but I can’t just have my entire life revolve around her and what SHE wants. AITA?
