- This qualitative study examined the reintegration experiences of Australian Defense Force (ADF) families with young children. Current ADF members (n = 9) and ADF spouses (n = 38) were asked to reflect on their reintegration experiences, specifically their own and their child’s adaptation. 6 themes emerged; 4 reflected the experiences of ADF members and spouses, while 2 reflected spouses’ experiences only. Relationship and parenting challenges were apparent across all themes.
