Focus: Third Culture Kids (TCK’s and transition) open to new and returning parents
In this workshop led by Janel Wilder our 7th grade Counselor we will be discussing TCK identities, their unique qualities followed by a short film on Third Culture Kid Identities called “So Where Is Home?”. We will dive into the “Transition Cycle” and how it affects TCKs during their youth, and discuss what happens in the transition stage and why grieving is important during this period. We will take a look at the “Change Curve” which explains life changes. Parents will find out how to support their children through transition, and how to create opportunities for closeness and support during this difficult period. In our workshop we will also discuss TCKs transition back to their own country, what challenges they face and how to make their transition a bit easier.
