My son is in the military and dinl decided she wanted out of the way of life and the marriage. Hes been in 16 years and I have 3 lovely grandchildren. The reality of coping with his job and 'co-parenting' a year into seperation is obviously starting to become extremely difficult for him and my husband and myself help as much as we can with the children. But the children live a 5 hour drive away. The door has always been open for him to come and the children. As now living in barracks osnt ideal and now the children are saying they dont want to go to any welfare house. Im now feeling so guilty because I am exhausted. I still work, have a 90 plus mother, a retired older husband and dont have anyone I can talk to about being part of a military family as I feel that supporting him I am also supporting his military role in keeping this country safe. Could gransnet set up a thread for the grandparents of military grandchildren and for miliary families generally. Thanks.
