Month Of The Military Child

Kate — Fri, 01 Apr 2022 12:26:00 +0000

Did you know April is the Month of the Military Child? Military kids, a.k.a. “brats,” experience a lot throughout their childhood that many civilian children do not. As a former military child, turned military spouse, I can appreciate all that they go through!

Here are some interesting things about military kids:

There are over 1.5 million children who have a military-affiliation.
Most military children will move more than 5 times during childhood! I moved 10 times before I was 18 AND I went to 18 different schools!
Most people don’t realize that less than 10% of military kids attend a Dept. of Defense School! The majority of military kids are at public schools, and some are at private schools, as well! We can’t forget our homeschool families that make up a small percentage too!
Children who grow up in the military world are more likely to join the military one day! You could even say…it runs in the family! Both my husband’s father and my father served. My husband serves and so does my brother .
With so many unknowns in their world, military children tend to carry levels of anxiety and depression. This is something to monitor for sure, and make sure to reach out to the many resources that are available to the military families for this!
With all of the moving and having to make new friends, many military kids tend to be very outgoing!
One of the big challenges in their world is that most military children will experience one, or even both parents, being deployed at some point. There are some who will experience this many times too.

So let us celebrate our little troops, because they are truly amazing and resilient individuals! So, Purple Up all month long!
