Separations are a normal experience for military families. Some choose to move “home,” the place they lived prior to joining the service or the place currently with the most family. Those that move home live near or with family while their spouse is gone. Some choose to stay where they are and keep their routine and friends around them as substitute family. This often occurs with families that have school-aged children because it is difficult to change schools every time a spouse deploys.
