First off, once she is done with basic training, she isn't going to be getting $1500 for one weekend a month. It will be around $300 for one weekend. Two weeks annual training will probably be in the neighborhood of $1200.
The Army requires that all single parents, and dual military submit a family care plan and update it on an annual basis. A family care plan is a detailed plan of who will take care of the Soldier's dependents in the event a Soldier is called to active duty. The Soldier is required to provide a notarized care agreement signed by the person who will be the primary custodian for the children. If you boss doesn't want to be responsible for the children, she is not required to sign the agreement.
TJ's suggestion that no single parents be allowed is unfortunate and would eliminate a lot of quality Soldiers from the Army.
