Introduction
Thousands of soldiers serve, protecting their country from all types of threats, and ensuring its security. Unfortunately, not all people value such care, and instead of showing respect, they are prejudiced. The purpose of this essay is to study the impact of the problem of insufficient respect for military families on society and individuals and to find solutions to this issue.
Main body
Although military men are strong personalities, their relatives are often affected by many factors. In addition to high army demands and trials, the family has to cope with common everyday problems, such as financial ones (Trail et al. 2132). People do not show respect to military households for many reasons, one of which is a banal lack of knowledge about the army. Other people do not respect military families, believing that they are in a privileged position. All this translates into prejudices about such families, which only increase the complexity of life for the defenders of the country. Soldiers should be in the most comfortable conditions to fulfill their duty as efficiently as possible. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the number of negative factors affecting them.
This problem can be solved, first of all, by increasing the education of people and disseminating accurate information about military families. It is necessary to raise the prestige of the army, forming the image of heroic defenders. Advertising campaigns should be conducted that tell about the hardships of life for the military and their families to attract public attention to this problem. As an alternative method, this difficulty can also be solved by providing support to military relations from the state. At the moment, there are many diverse programs to support military families. However, many of them require improvement and a more focused approach, which at the moment cannot be achieved due to a lack of data (Trail et al. 2130). Hence, by supporting households and eliminating weaknesses, the state can make military families more durable, which will also help improve their image in society.
Conclusion
Thus, in the modern community, there is a problem of disrespect for military families. It can be solved in several ways: either by social or state methods. However, regardless of the program, this issue should be addressed and resolved as soon as possible, since its negative impact affects not only the military itself but also indirectly affect the whole country.
