[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My father was career military and my mother never used the feeble "my husband is deployed" excuse for bad manners, e.g., my children are a package deal. My DH is foreign service and when family could not accompany him, I didn't use the "deployed" excuse. I am sI'm of military families expecting everyone else to kiss their posteriors because of "their service." it is a job that you chose knowing the risks and hardships. [/quote] My best friend's husband is currently military and he is on his third tour of duty. I also grew up on a military family. My father was deployed once. And they were back in 4 months. That was in 25 years of service. Perhaps your dad was gone more frequently, but that still doesn't qualify you to judge others and what they are capable of handling. Every person/mother/wife is different. For some woman, the stress of having their husbands away in a war zone in which suicide bombings (and the use of women and children as human shields) is common is just overwhelming.[/quote]
