Gentle, honest: Lot depends on kids' ages, how much they understand. They should know that even tho daddy has to be away, he loves them very much, & that daddy's work is to keep families safe, including your own. Let kids know what to expect - will daddy have access to phone or skype? Personalized mementos to give kids something of daddy's to hold onto while he is away. Support from other military families helps!
