Embracing the Now: Ben's TCK Return to the U.S. - Episode 53

 

Welcome back to Part 2 of our interview with Major Ben Scott, a US Army Signal Corps Officer who grew up as a Third Culture Kid in Kenya and Germany. He and his wife are now raising five TCKs of their own back in Germany where Ben is stationed.  

 

At 15 years old, Ben returned to the United States for high school. Despite a smooth first year, he entered a difficult time of negotiating what it meant to be an American teenager in a large suburban public school. Find out how Ben got through this reverse culture shock, finally got a car, and what his recommendations are for TCKs now.
