I tried to make my daughter promise me that she would never go, but she said that she could not make that promise. *sigh* I don't want to scare you but let me tell you what happened to one of our Persian friends. He was born in America. Both of his parents are Iranian so he also is an Iranian citizen. They went to Iran when Ali was 18 on a visit. They tried to conscript him into the military. They got him home but it cost a bunch of money in bribes. They probably really didn't want him since he speaks Farsi like a 2 year old. He thinks it was just a scheme to get the money.
