Military Child

Imagine you're snorkeling and you see a bunch of cool fish, well this is just a normal day of a military child. I think being a military child is unique, awesome and sometimes challenging. As a military child you get to travel, live on a military base, and sometimes you have to leave family and friends. If you don't think being a military child is super awesome then you should keep reading.


One reason why being a military child is awesome is because you get to travel. For example, when I was one 1 moved from San Diego ,California to New Hampshire. Another example is that I get to travel to Guam to see my dad because he's been deployed there for 3 months. My final example is once I traveled to Cambodia and got to see Angkor Wat. These are a few reasons why being a military child is awesome.


Another reason why being a military child is challenging is because you have to leave friends and family behind. For example when I was five I had to move to Iwakuni Japan and I had to leave my best friend behind. Another example is when I was 7 my best friend moved away. My last example is when I was eight I had to move away from all my friends and family. Those are some reasons why being a military child is challenging.


An awesome thing about being a Military child is you get to live on a military base. One reason why living on a military base is awesome is because it's really safe. For example I can run around all day without telling my mom. Another reason why living on a military base is awesome it's because you have a lot of freedom. For example I can go to the store by myself. My final reason why living on a military base is awesome is because you get to go to the skatepark. At the skatepark I do tricks on my scooter. These are some reasons why being a military child is awesome.


So There you have it! Although it can be challenging, in my opinion, being a military child is awesome. You get to travel, like when I traveled to Cambodia. You also get to live on a military base, and go to the skate park. Sometimes you have to leave family and friends, like when I was 8 I had to move away from all my friends. I Hope my writing helped you learn what being a military child is like. And If you are a military child too I hope you can relate to that!
