For many parents, the "Military Semester" program is an environment for their children to develop independence and discipline. Ms. Nguyen Thi Loan, a resident of Rach Gia ward and a parent whose child participated in the "Military Semester," said: "Our family hopes our child will learn independence, discipline, and how to take care of themselves. The experiences in the military environment will help our child mature, appreciate their parents' efforts, and become more responsible for themselves."
