With one wheel (one
language), you can
go from place to
place.
With one big and one
small wheel (one good and
one not so good language)
you can go farther and
faster.
With two equal-sized wheels
(two strong languages) you
can comfortably go
anywhere you want!

Third-culture kids
A third culture kid is a person who has spent a significant part of his
or her developmental years outside their parents culture. The third
culture kid builds relationships
to all the cultures, while not havingfull ownership in any. Although
elements from each culture are
assimilated into the third
culture kids life experience,
the sense of belonging is inrelationship to others of the
same background,
other TCKs.
