Feb 20, 2010, Expat parents: help your expat kids achieve a sense of purpose.

An excellent resource for expat parents and kids. Goal Setting for Kids. Improve your child's self-esteem and help them feel a sense of purpose. Expat kids often lack a sense of direction and belonging. Moving around and uprooting frequently can leave them feeling aimless and without a sense of continuity. As a result, many expatriate children are left without the skills they need to excel as adults. You can help your kids express their wishes, learn to set goals, outline steps toward achievement, and feel pride in their accomplishments. Kids need to learn these skills very early on. Although not directed exclusively at expatriate children, GOAL SETTING FOR KIDS is a system of fun books and activities that teaches kids of any age these essential skills. Click Here!

In our Expat Kids Resource section you'll find this and many other resources for expat kids and parents, third culture kids, missionary kids, and more.
