CISSP is security based though, and I was trying to provide first steps to an 18 year old not to someone with a decade worth of experience. Security+ does trump Network+ for security especially but it is a bit more advanced of a cert for someone without only an A+ cert.
Also, CISSP requires 5 years of work experience outlined here.

I do network security for a regional bank and am currently going back to school for net security and/or programming.

I took some college courses during high school and ended up with an A+ equivalent certificate. From there I had a job doing Dell warranty for a bit through a company based out of Texas. I took a couple years off from the IT field and came back as a field tech at the company I'm currently at fixing anything from computers, printers, network closets, phones, and pretty much anything else that plugged in to an outlet until I moved into my new position.

I will not miss printers.
