[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im the poster who thinks this an amazing opportunity, not a tragedy. I’m basing this on the assumption that your children will be attending an international school. These schools are used to students coming and going, they prioritize building community and helping new students feel settled. 
Those of you that were traumatized by a move in high school - I’m guessing you moved domestically, to another school where everyone attended together since kindergarten. It’s really not like that in international schools, or at least the many international schools around the world
that I have moved my own children in and out of. Yes, it is hard to start over, but they are not the only ones.[/quote]

Gawd you sound like a clueless selfish parent. You have moved your kid but you yourself have not moved as a kid. Why do you assume people one here only moved domestically? I moved to five countries in two continents as a kid, attending international schools. Building community is not something you can magically “arrange” with a bunch of picnics. [/quote]
