(Unit 4) Topic 6: Operation: Military Families

2 Clock Hours of Early Childhood Education

Military Family Challenges

​Topic 6 Page 7

Military families experience unique stressors and situations that non-military families typically do not face. ​
What’s more is that these stressors often recur and sometimes within expected or unexpected timeframes. The military is distinctive in that it is considered a greedy institution (Coleman, 2003). This means that there are high demands for time and exclusive loyalty from its members. Likewise, families are a greedy institution so when military men and women have families there is a constant tug of war at play.
Historically speaking the military was comprised of mostly young single men. ​
Picture
Today’s military is very different with the majority of its members still being men (84.9% in 2014), however just over half (55.3% in 2014) of active duty military members are reported to be married and 37.5% have children. This is an extremely large portion of the military that are participating in that metaphorical tug of war between their career choice and their family.​
Picture
Along with all of these unique issues military families are still experiencing the same stressors as non-military families. Family illnesses, financial strain, the stress of raising children and working are usual stressors for families but military families combine these with other stressors that are unique to their situation.
