[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do not have them move back to the US for 1 year of senior year if you can help it. That year is all about memories and nostalgia. Not good if you haven’t been there. [/quote]

No this is incorrect, depending on the kid it will be fine.

Feel free to have your kid be the guinea pig for this. If your asking for advice for someone who’s BTDT I would say, don’t do it. [/quote]

I've done it myself and my kids have done it. There are people who lead very international lives and know more about it than you.[/quote]

I have “lived a very international life”, so I don’t know who could know more about this than me. I have lived in three different countries in childhood as a foreign service kid, and two different countries for two years each in Asia as an adult.  I would not do this to my senior in high school.[/quote]

DP but pretty sure there are thousands of people who meet this exact description.

Your experience is valid. So are other people’s.[/quote]
