Between two cultures

Position yourself and find solutions

​

When it comes to parenthood and education, each country, each culture has its own habits and ways of doing things. Thus, depending on the culture, we will approach toilet training, time management, school, social life, the question of meals (which is a real subject for us French!) and many other subjects differently.

 

Raising our children in contact with another culture confronts us with questions and issues that often take us by surprise.

 

The situations we face and how we feel as parents sometimes throw us off balance.

 

The language of the country molds the minds of our children, the culture influences their reactions and these can leave us perplexed.

 

I bring listening and finding solutions to the difficulties related to interculturality.

 

Parents from different cultures

​

During parental coaching for mixed couples, we address the same educational themes from an intercultural angle but also themes specific to the situation, such as the question of language transmission, the cultural or linguistic gap between parents and children, the rejection by our children of certain traits of our culture of origin.

 

I guide parents to make the difference between the cultural conflict which are superimposed on the interpersonal conflicts in their family relations.

 

I support and listen to parents who need to express their feelings about the double culture in which their children are growing up, to take stock of the situation and decide which direction to follow.
