[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Military make a lot less $$ and the move is paid for and the housing is paid for. They are no taking $ out of their pocket and away from their family needs to stay teaching. They already sacrifice enough. Not to mention, some moves are followed immediately by deployment so if they have kids then the non military spouse has ti stay there. [/quote]

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.[/quote]
