Nobody’s lives are affected more by the intricacies of military life than military kids. They grow up in this subculture of society that makes them so resilient, yet so fragile to experiences that other children might never have to face until they move away from home to start their adult lives.
Loss is something that military children experience continuously, whether it is the loss of friends, loss of teachers, or the temporary and sometimes permanent loss of parents. They go through more in their childhood than most adults go through in a lifetime.
