Early Childhood Education Class:
Topic: Helping Children Cope During Deployment
Step #1: Read the PDF titled “Helping Children Cope During Deployment”.
Step #2: Read the PDF titled “When a Parent is injured or killed in Combat” by Allison K. Holmes, Paula K. Rauch, and Colonel Stephen J.
Step #3: Read the PDF titled “Combat Operational Stress- Invisible Injuries”.
Step #4: View the YouTube video titled “Effects of Visible & Invisible Parent Combat Injuries on Military Families” by Military Families Learning Network.

Step #5: Now after reading the three PDF’s and the YouTube video answer the following two questions below:

Question #1: “Service members who incurred invisible physical or emotional wounds will not have the same obvious injuries as those with visible physical wounds. Symptoms related to invisible wounds include irritability, angry outbursts, rapid mood swings, heavy drinking, anxiety, sleeplessness, emotional numbing, memory loss, and a loss of interest in life activities.” How would invisible injury affect the relationship and bonding of the child and the deployed parent?

Question #2: Children who don't have the tools to handle the reality of the visible and invisible scars of their parent’s deployment may turn to drugs and alcohol to "numb" their emotions, leading to substance abuse at an extremely early age. What are the different factors that might contribute to this?
