By, Marco Silva
Families also have a rough time back at home.
When a Family has a member join the military it isn't easy for anyone. There are many negatives that come with it. Things such as loneliness, financial difficulties, panic ,worrying about loved ones etc. A lot of families are poverty because of financial reasons or simply can do things without the other spouse.
since 2001, more than 2 million Americans children have had a parent deployed at least once.
Families stress in the fact if the soldier is safe. Sometimes soldiers do come home wounded and cause issues in the family
More than 900,000 children have experienced the deployment of one or both parents multiple times
War can effect more than just the soldier. It reaches the families, spouse and children. Problems can even occur when the service member returns. These issues have mainly a big impact on the children.
For help
Health is very important, especially when it involves the whole family . There many resources to receive help from such as the red cross, community shelter etc.
