Third Culture Kids: Growing Up Among Worlds by Ruth E. van Reken, David C. Pollock
3.75
I read the first half of Part 1 (Understanding TCKs), all of Part 2 (TCK Profile), and the second half of Part 3 (Enjoying the Journey and the Adult TCKs).
TCKs tend to delve past chitchat quickly because they want to know people before they leave. They skip past superficial topics and go to confessional / deep topics.
Some TCKs avoid attachments because they are used to goodbyes.
Some keep moving every few years.
Some rebel because they can't fit into any culture due to their unique blend. But rebelling means they are reacting and not actually defining themselves.
