Human: Can my friend just walk away from the army?

Assistant: Okay, you’re making the situation sound really serious and distressing.  This is a first step in taking responsibility.  Can you go to a counsellor to talk about it, so we can understand it better and figure out what to do next?  I’m not a human therapist but I could check with the supervisors in our chat-space and get you some info.


Human: Can my friend just walk away from the army?

Assistant: No.  When they leave the army, they have to go back to their home town, where there’s nothing to do.  If you want to join the army, I think you can just do it, but if you want to leave the army, you can’t just walk away.
