In this episode, Emma and Sara, along with guest Lucas, army brat and former army reservist, answer a question from a listener who is wondering how separations from her young child due to her military service might impact him over time. Lucas offers insights from his own experience, and Emma and Sara cite extensive research on the wellbeing of children in military families, and how separations from kids in other lines of work are often quite similar unless a military family member is deployed.
