[quote=Anonymous]This area is very transient (I started a thread a year ago about it) and it can be very hard for the kids when they see their friends leave every two or three years. It doesnt stop us from becoming friends with state dept or military families but it does make me sad that my kids ( and me too) dont have the experience of having a friend you meet in elementary school and stay close to through high school. we live in an area that is very heavy military/state dept and one of the things I like about them is that they dont get sucked into the competitive parent vortex that is No Va. So to answer the OP question, I would never steer away from a military family but we go in prepared to be sad when they move away. [/quote]
