I understand military move, but

I doubt this is real but it’s surely entertaining.

It’s a job, that’s it. She can quit whenever she wants. Be happy you had a teacher in the room for most of the year.

MY DD teacher is leaving at the end of the month because of a "military move.".
What I don't understand why doesn't she just stay here for 3 more months. I emailed her and told her that she should still here, since its 3 more so its will only be that much more money wise. 3 years ago when my DH was relocated we kept playing for an apartment for him, and the house we were living at doing that time. That was for 6 months, and we could afford it. I told her to look into it, but she never responded. Could it be she just want to quit?

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.

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.

Regardless of ranking, paying for two homes is beyond most families. Plus housing allowance follows the military spouse. So if their next station is a lower COL area, their housing allowance will probably plunge, as this area is one of the higher ones. So they’d have higher expenses and lower income.

Why don’t you pay her to stay? You can rent her a house, furniture, a car… the. You can fly her to her new home.

What? This person wants to live with their spouse and not pay for 2 houses for 3 months - how is this hard to understand? Being a teacher is a job.
