We come from a variety of countries, and while our children can attend school in a common language at times (often English), most parents desire that their child(ren) be ready to return to their passport country to attend university or pursue a career.

What are other things that our TCKs need to be prepared for as they navigate living in their passport country? Filling the Gaps offers some ideas.
