Third Culture Kids by David C Pollock

In this publication, the authors explore the experiences of those who have become known as "third culture kids" (TCKs) - children who grow up or spend a significant part of their childhood living abroad. The book is rich with real-life anecdotes and examines the nature of the TCK kid experience and its effects on maturing, developing a sense of identity, and adjusting to one's "passport country" upon return. The authors give readers an understanding of the challenges and benefits of the TCK life and provide practical suggestions and advice on maximizing those benefits.
David Pollock has worked with third culture kids and adult TCKs for more than twenty years. Ruth Van Reken knows intimately the world of living in a culture and country not your own, for her missionary kid childhood and as a parent and grandparent of TCKs.
