This is for anyone who as children 10 to 14 and has gone through deployment. How did you as a parent deal with your child during the second deployment? was your child different this time from the first time? Our daughter is 12 and yes there is the dealing with the girl and the pre-teen, but she the other day just did a 180 on me and will have nothing to do with me. I am the bad guy when it comes to school and everything else. She runs to dad now. something she never did before. I am just at a loss as how to turn her around. dad will be in the field for 2 weeks so and then go most of the summer before deployment in the fall. any advice you can give on pre-teens and girls would be great!

When you figure it out, let me know! This will be Gunner's third deployment to Iraq. My oldest was 5 the first time, 8 the second and now 10. She exhibits a lot of the same behavior since I am the one in charge of the school, daily life, etc for all three of them. I guess we will find out sooner rather than later....way too soon...
