[quote=Anonymous]We live in a city where there are both large Army and Air Force presences and there are a lot of officers' families in our neighborhood. Also a lot of former military.  All of my 3 kids have had good friends move away. I wouldn't discourage friendships with other military kids at all (and probably wouldn't even know if the parents were military unless I saw them in uniform because we're not in DC so people don't exchange credentials before arranging a playdate). I just wish we could manage to visit our friends who have moved to Germany and England before they move again!

I do find that the military wives are pretty involved with other military families more and if their spouse is a higher rank they can have lots of obligations on post, so it can be a little hard to get to know them. But I don't have the best social skills, so it could just be me.

Maybe you'll be our neighbor OP, the house behind us is for rent and we'd love a nice military family with young kids to move in. [/quote]
