In a global society, internationally mobile (IM) families experience challenges as well as benefits while living a transient lifestyle. Considering the human costs of relocation and transience for IM families, it is important to understand their survival strategies. A qualitative research approach was used to study 45 IM families who had children attending a private, international school in Southern England. Findings revealed that parents were not passive agents, but actively employed tactics to help their children manage mobility.
