I do not believe in the entitlement of family members rather it be powrr of rank or other such things.
However service is seen in many cultures of bestowing honor upon one's family.
There potential good and bad that can impact them. Your PTSD, disruptive lifestyle, or etc can have a negative impact. Your variety of duty stations can also mean more exposure to different cultures.

My service led to two of my sons volunteering to become Soldiers, and both of these young warriors deployed (Michael deployed once to Iraq and once to Afghanistan, Zach deployed to Afghanistan). I am extremely proud of both of them and their selfless service!

Financially, a bit of both.
Culture, with values and traditions and beliefs, probably positively (I say probably due to workaholism potential).
Time away, negative.
Actually, at the point in life, honestly its running in the red as a negative.
My first CO, now a 1-star, said "The secret to success in the Reserves is to keep the Navy, civilian work, and your family equally ticked off at you."
