Shocking that OP’s spouse decided to live in their own for three months due to relocation. 🙄
This is the most ridiculous and entitled thing I have seen in a while, and agree someone is trolling. |
You have some nerve and lack of boundaries. You can’t be serious- this is probably a troll. |
OP, I'm a military spouse and have spent 2 years away from my husband for a variety of reasons. I'll likely have to do it again in his career. It's extremely expensive to choose to live apart. In some cases, like moving abroad, it would not be doable to move at a separate time. Teachers aren't highly paid and she'll easily get a job at their next assignment. No need for her to stay behind. |
Written by someone who has no understanding at all of military life. 1. Yes. The move is paid for. Two moves are not paid for. 2. Expenses would likely outweigh money coming in for the spouse. 3..Does the teacher have children? That would be another expense. Support and child care. Military families face many separations. Why would she choose to face another? It is also possible that her spouse is coming off deployment and they want to be together. And, most moves are not "immediately" followed by deployment. I can assure you that she has weighed that possibilty. And, last, you have no idea at all of her choices. If her husband is taking a command, she would likely want to be there to support him. The move may even be overseas and she does not want to face that separation. If they are in military housing, staying may not be an option. There are so many different caveats, I cannot imagine anyone being so insensitive. |
I am sure she gave your email all the thought it deserved. |
Lol. The military does not demand that the spouse moves with you with a certain timeframe, but there is no reason not to. Housing is not an issue, since it’s paid for or subsidized. . Why be separated from your spouse and family for many months, when you don’t have to be? Most families would avoid that. Also military spouses have to deploy regularly, and then they are already separated for many months. Most don’t want to add additional time of separation. I’m reallly surprised you don’t know any of this, and can’t believe you emailed her. |
But, two housings are not paid for or subsidized unless spouse is deployed. If they are going to live on post, she won't be getting subsidy here or be able to live in housing here. And, in this area housing is quite expensive. I was a teacher. I guarantee you the teacher has considered the options. |
YES she wants to quit because of the intrusive parent who is hassling her about a private matter! No teacher should be "told to look into it". WTF, you are unbelievable. Get some therapy, mommy- you have serious boundary issues and need to learn about staying out of other people's personal decisions. ps- nobody cares what you can "afford". |
Please, please, let the poor teacher who received this email post next to say this really happened. I can’t fathom this being real. |
Wish I could say this was shocking, but it's just not. APS parents are over the top. |
Did you offer to pay the extra housing, moving and other costs? No, she's right. |
If they are in base housing, she cannot remain there. If they are not in base housing, they'd have to pay for it and if they aren't high ranking office, they cannot afford two houses. If the is enlisted, he doesn't make much. Military will pay for one move. So, it not an option. |
Well, the title of this thread is incorrect. OP clearly does not understand military moves. |
BINGO! I really hope this is a troll post |
Parents are so entitled |
