In Germany, my mom told me we were leaving in 9 days to go to Korea. I already thought that I would miss Germany a lot because of my friends, and I knew that if I left, they would miss me too. It is hard to move, but that is what makes you a special military child. I know it is really hard to move, but when you get used to a new place, it feels even more special.

This is another way it feels to be a military child. When my mom said that my dad was getting ready to leave Germany to move to Korea, I knew I would miss my friends and family. Also, my dad would have no time to spend with me and my sister. However, as I mentioned before, being a military child can still feel special—especially when you meet a new and kind friend who helps you with math, ELA, or when you’re hurt and need help. I know it’s really hard, but when you get used to it, you can become kind and happy again.

When you are a military child, you have to settle into new places, and sometimes the Army or military forces your dad to stay or leave, like what happened to me. Sometimes you have to stay behind. It might feel sad, but you can also feel happy. These are some of the real experiences and feelings of a military child.
