Part 3 Repatriation and Kids | Eight Mistakes Parents Make

Most people expect going abroad to be hard, but they don’t expect
returning home to be as challenging.  In particular, they
often underestimate the challenge kids will have
re-adjusting.  While meaning to be helpful there are eight
common mistakes parents make that actually make readjusting
harder for kids.  Today on the podcast we look at each of
these mistakes and discuss a healthier approach to support our
kids in transition!

This topic is part of our April focus on how to navigate
transitions in expat life.  This is the third part of a
3-part series on culture shock and repatriation, we’ll also be
discussing how to support kids transitioning to new schools, and
how to deal with stuff in frequent or international moves.
 

On the podcast you'll learn:


Why people expect repatriation to be easier and why it's not

How to help ourselves and our kids manage their expectations

How to help kids manage their emotions

What the latest research says about physical objects and
their role in transition

How to empower kids feel more included with their peers
