Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After World War II, American political, military, corporate, and humanitarian responsibilities abroad expanded greatly. With families in tow, government officials, military service personnel, business executives, and missionaries began to travel and live, in increasing numbers, outside of their home country. Other nations followed suit. Ender examines this legacy of the late 20th century and analyzes the social, psychological, and historical imprints on people who came of age in these service organization families. Such international experiences impose specific demands on employees, their spouses and their children. These include relocation, risk of death or injury, family separation, and social controls on behavior. This collection contains thirteen essays by researchers studying children, adolescents, youth, and adults in a service organization family context, including the military, the State Department, international educators, and non-governmental organizations. The studies integrate research from sociology, psychology, child and adolescent development, family studies, and communications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We’ve all heard the term “military brat” before. It pertains to those children who grew up in military families. “Brats” wear the name like a badge of honor, often because of the moves, stressors and cultural experiences that make them more resilient than their civilian counterparts. When Miss Laura started writing music and books for military story time kids (while her husband served as a Naval Oral Surgeon on NAVSTA Great Lakes), she asked the parents what they thought about their kids being called ‘Brats’. Her audience was tots to kindergarten age, and the parents agreed that ‘Brat’ was a term that didn’t really relate at those ages. So ‘Military Child’ came to life in Laura’s music, stories, and books. ‘Yes, I Am a Military Child’ is not an attempt to draw away from being a “Brat”, it’s simply a ‘warm-up’ to the badge of honor of the title that connotes affection and respect. This book is a sing-along to two of the songs on Miss Laura’s special music CD ‘Miss Laura & the Military Brats’ available on YouTube, Amazon, etc. Scan below to listen. Check out Miss Laura’s special ‘Military Child, That’s Me!’ t-shirts, too! Scan below to purchase! Thank you so much for being a part of the magic that is all things ‘Miss Laura’. I hope you really come to love the illustrations painted by Dominique, as she is a true Military Brat. Thank you for buying this book and have a ton-of-fun filling in the special pages in the back! -Miss Laura
