I’m a military child. Being a military child makes you have things that other kids don't get. Even though being a military child sounds great, we do have some disadvantages too. There are a lot of advantages to being a military child. For example, we have the choice of living on a military base. This means that we live in a safer place. Also, a big advantage is going to a DoDEA school. There are some disadvantages too. For example, instead of living in a place for a long time like most kids do, you’re moving all the time. This is a disadvantage because you're always moving away from your friends and the people that you got used to living with. And being the new kid is not fun because you have to get used to new people again. And trust me, moving across to the whole other side of the world away from your best friend is sad. I think being a military kid is awesome but also sad.
