Transnational Families
Transnational families are families that maintain connections across national borders. This often occurs when one or more family members migrate to another country for work, education, or other reasons, while other members remain in their home country. These families use technology, such as video calls and social media, to stay in touch and support each other emotionally and financially.
The dynamics of transnational families can be complex, as they navigate different cultures, legal systems, and economic conditions. Issues such as remittances, which are money sent back home, play a significant role in their relationships. Additionally, the experience of separation can impact family bonds and individual well-being.
