[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a few friends who grew up moving around a lot (military or state department), and they are some of the most adaptable and resilient people I know.  Change doesn’t seem to scare them the way it does other people, and they seem more comfortable being out of their element.  Obviously there are no universal experiences, but I think that lifestyle growing up served my friends well.[/quote]

Agree completely with this when I think about my own peers who were military or FSO kids, as well as my kids' friends -- teens and early 20s -- who are military or FSO.  Adaptable and resilient people, curious and open-minded about the world, notably comfortable speaking with adults even at an early age.  And these are close-knit, mutually supportive families.  That said, if you're feeling anxious, OP, you might want to seek counseling and support for yourself.  As a citizen and taxpayer, I hope that is available to you.  Thank you for your service to our country.  God bless you and yours!  [/quote]
