Is asking them to come with me every time I’m transferred really that selfish?

Commenters debate whether a military husband can expect his wife and child to move with every transfer.

Wife: her employment situation, their child’s schooling Husband: his feelings (anxiety)

So damn selfish. The woman has already accommodated him 3 times, but he keeps insisting on only what he wants. He’s hopeless.

It might be different if this only affected the couple, but from the child’s perspective it’s genuinely brutal. I transferred schools a total of 7 times from elementary school through high school graduation, and all those friendships ended up being temporary, so I have no friends from school..... Of course I don’t have any neighborhood friends either.
