If you are an expat raising kids abroad—your kids are “Third Culture Kids,” meaning—they are spending some of their developmental years living in a culture different from their parent’s passport culture. They are a third culture kids because they aren’t living in their pp culture, they don’t totally fit into the culture they live in—they are part of a third culture as an expat. Research has shown over the past few decades that people with this experience tend to experience a set of similar challenges, and tend to develop similar positive attributes. Understanding this experience can help us be more deliberate as we parent our TCKs. In addition, there are some practical things we can do along the way to help our kids be emotionally successful now and as adults.
