Today there are close to 700,000 children in the U.S. with at least one parent deployed, according to the American Psychological Association. Additionally, Pentagon reports indicate close to 19,000 children have had a parent injured in the military since September 11, 2001.
As the
U.S. reaches its 6th year at war, it becomes increasingly clear that Kids Serve Too! The children of deployed, injured and fallen heroes just may be the strongest and most forgotten heroes today. For some kids the adjustment to a deployed or injured parent can be difficult to understand and cope with.
