The Needs Behind the Disconnect:
Emotional Resilience in International School Classrooms

Students who seem fine might not be.

30% of Gen Z TCKs in international schools experienced emotional neglect.

When emotional needs go unmet, cross-cultural kids learn to disconnect and disconnection is easily mistaken for coping.

Learn:
  • what unmet needs look like in the classroom,
  • why boundaries build resilience, and
  • how to teach emotional regulation to students who've stopped asking.
