New US military recruiting ads tell kids to ignore their parents' wishes, don't go to college

I'm sorry, but the new US military TV ads strike me as extremely offensive. They involve kids talking to a parent and explaining to that parent why the kid shouldn't go to college, but rather, should go join the military.

Excuse me, but in what universe does the US government, or anyone else for that matter, try to convince our kids NOT to go to college? And spare me the "the commercial says they can go AFTER they finish their military service. Yes, they can, if they're still alive and not one of the growing number of US troops suffering from post-tramautic stress disorder.

I can deal with recruiting ads, no matter how immoral this war and how inept our commander in chief. But the federal government trying to recruit kids by telling them this is a good way to escape your parents' wishes that you go to college, is wrong in so many ways.
