...daughter's height regularly. In return, she's always asking about how much something measures and is very interested in numbers and words. Teach them a second language. My daughter speaks English and French fluently and wants to learn Spanish. I have a full-time job, but I spend as much time with her as I can. She loves being a kid, and we enjoy learning together. For now, I'm enjoying seeing her grow and learn at her own pace and, of course, helping and encouraging her in whatever she wants to learn. At such a young age, being...
...Michigan State University, who spent her career studying what she called Third Culture Kids - the millions of U.S. children (an estimated 20 million since the advent of mass air travel) who have been carted abroad by their missionary, diplomatic, corporate or military parents.

...stunts and locations appear computerized, lending a gimmicky sense the scenes. The script tends to be heavy-handed, relying largely on dialogue to convey emotions, instead of leaving the storytelling to Freeman and Nicholson. Where improvisation would have lent a natural air to the time that Cole and Chambers spend together, Justin Zackham’s writing impedes the viewer’s connection with the characters. Fortunately, the audience hardly needs to feel a total affinity for Cole and Chambers in order to enjoy “The Bucket List.” As an escape from the drudgery...
