As the son of a career USN surface officer, we moved roughly 10 times by the time I was 11, the last being to Northern VA for my fathers Pentagon and Cyrstal City stints.
I did not move again until I went to Iowa for college 7 years later. My father turned down some opportunities to keep us in one place for my HS years and I am thankful for that.
Now, with that being said, moving was the best thing for me as it forced me to not be introverted and go out and make new friends. This has translated into my professional career in a very positive way.
Of course with all that social media crap nowadays, everything is different.
Moving is hard, but if you have your families support, and like Paul has mentioned the sports make it easier for your kids to "fit in", then I say don't be afraid to seriously consider doing it.
