[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Generally speaking” yes civilians are more stable.  But that’s the problem with blanket policies with no nuance.  Some civilian position and for some locations, particularly overseas, that is not the case.  In fact, in some overseas locations, childcare facilities outside of base will not accept DoD civilian children or military children bc of their tax-exempt status.  Policy changes are find, but ones implemented without consideration of all circumstances are not. [/quote]

You do realize under this policy active duty families can get bumped too, right? This whole policy recognizes that too many people are using CDCs than is sustainable. This is “souring the milk” so to speak. Less people will see CDCs as a good option now, which will free up space for those the DoD has deemed top priority.

And don’t try to  gatekeep this conversation. Anyone who is active duty orders and figuring out child care has every right to voice their support or opposition. [/quote]

Actually the active duty that get bumped under the new policy are active duty members with non-working spouses.  Get a job or watch your kid(s). Your choice... [/quote]

Actually, active duty with part time spouses, those seeking employment and those in school can also be bumped. The writings on the wall on what the CDC’s are going to be from now on. [/quote]
