TCK(Third Culture Kids)

[석수]

TCK는 'Third Culture Kids'의 줄임말이며 한국어로는 '제3 문화 아이들'이라고 한다.

성장기 동안 두 개 이상의 문화적 배경을 경험하며 자란 사람들을 말하며 또 다른 말로는 CCK (Cross Culture Kids)라고도 한다.

TCK는 부모 나라의 문화(제1 문화)에도 완전하게 속하지 못하고, 해외 문화(제2 문화)에도 완전하게 속하지 못하지만, 제1 문화와 제2 문화를 양쪽 모두 받아들여 만들어진 새로운 제3의 문화 속에서 살아간다는 뜻이다.


Are You A Third Culture Kid In Need Of Help?

A Third Culture Kid (TCK) is someone who has spent a significant portion of their formative years living outside of their parent's passport country. If your parents are from The UK but you're living in The UAE, then you're a Third Culture Kid.

The term 'Third Culture' refers to an amalgamation the culture of the parent's home country and the host country.

When TCKs grow up they're called Adult Third Culture Kids.

I provide online therapy services for Third Culture Kids (TCKs) and Adult Third Culture Kids (ATCKs) with all types of mental health problems, everything from trauma and identity issues to depression and anxiety.
