The Army has a policy (3-8) that states that a prohibits single parents with a dependent under the age of 18 is not permitted to enlist in Active Duty Army, even with a family care plan.
The only two options are to get married or sign over full custody. I want to change this policy to allow single parents to be able to enlist in the Active Duty Army component with a family care plan. You shouldn't be discriminated for your marital status.
If you can raise a child and have family to support you (family care plan) you should be able to enlist.
