    As an aside, my parents kept me out of the “the system” for most of my youth so I missed my deadline, I never knew it existed.

    This made me ineligible for some benefits like federal loans and other programs. I wrote to Selective Service with a notarized letter that my failure to register was truly an oversight and they sent me a waiver and cleared my status.
