How do I tell my kids I have to leave? Please I really need help!?

Don't worry about them for a moment as I say that I have dealt with this before as I am a therapist from Georgia. There is one thing you should NOT do. That is act emmotional and sad. Don't let them know the dangers of war and ure them that you will be back, and meawhile you leave them with people they are fond of. Simply tell them you have to leave. Dont say Iraq, danger, dad, never, hopefully. Say ill miss you when im on vacation. Thats it. They should not know where you are leaving to. That will frighten them.
