Does the military allow you to join if you have a kid?

If you are a single parent, you can (and most likely will) get rejected from military service. At least that is how it is in the USAF, I'm not sure about other branches.
You sure about that Ian? I hope you're right, however, I belong to an AF enlisted forum elsewhere on the "internetz" and have seen several people get denied entry due to being single and having a kid.

(2) An unmarried applicant who has one or more dependents under 18 years old is disqualified, except as provided in (3) below. No waiver is authorized.
(3) A divorced or sole parent applicant may be processed for enrollment without waiver when the child or children of such applicant have been placed in the custody of the other parent, adult relative, or legal guardian by court order, if the applicant is not required to provide child support. If the applicant is required to provide child support, a dependency waiver is required. The CG, Cadet Command, has the authority to grant the waiver. In both cases, the applicant must sign a statement of understanding that he or she will be disenrolled if custody of the child or children is regained while the applicant is enrolled in ROTC. DA Form 3286-69 (Statement for Enlistment-Parts I thru IV) will be used as a guide. An exception to the disenrollment may be granted only in extraordinary circumstances, such as the death of the legal guardian, or adult having custody of the child or children.
(4) An applicant with a spouse in a military component of any armed service (excluding members of the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR)) who has one or more dependents under 18 years old is disqualified. No waiver is authorized.
(5) Husband and wife teams who have one or more dependents under 18 years old are disqualified from enrollment in ROTC as a team. No waiver is authorized. Either the husband or wife may enroll without a waiver subject to other provisions of this Paragraph.
Why would people sign up for socialism?
And are you helping him answer his question?Im almost certain this is the right forum. The gentleman posted his concern about joining the military with children.
It was a serious question, yes. The original question was whether or not he could join the military with kids. Maybe it's just I really don't know what you mean by:Is that a serious question?
Common Sense... Socialism is one thing I would not want my family to grow up around. Expecially with the military hospitials now days, you have a better chance of getting proper treatment in mexico.
