So....my son is currently in training, and will graduate soon. He and his girlfriend have been together for about four years. My son is very close to her family -- especially her mom. When I was busy having a kids (from a second marriage), she (the mom) always had lots of free time for him. I tried to make time for everyone in the family, but I guess I didn't do so well.

I mean is it the same heartache?"Yes, you can miss them just as much, just not in the same way. You love him as a spouse...they love him as a son. There is absolutely no comparison. You will understand this better when you have children. To the logical mind,…"

Is it now "OK" etiquette-wise to display a Blue Star Flag in your window if your military member is active duty but not currently deployed? I've read that the old protocol was that you displayed the Blue Star only when a service member was deployed, but the new protocol states that you may display a Blue Star if you have an Active Duty service member (even stateside).My niece (active duty Army, currently stateside) says that I should not display the Blue Star until my son is deployed, and that…See More
