Moving Overseas

Moving children overseas

For most children, moving is about loss: the loss of close friends, the loss of familiar places, the loss of a secure and content lifestyle, and this is especially pronounced when moving to a distant country There are plenty of things to mourn in any move, but it is your responsibility as a parent to show your child that moving abroad can also be a change for the better. As with almost all parental duties, this one can be daunting.
