What Other Consequences Could A Nomadic Lifestyle Have For Families?

The transient lifestyle is a growing trend among individuals seeking flexibility, diverse experiences, and personal growth. However, there is a risk that families may fall through the net and become disengaged from health, education, and other support systems. This can result in a reduction in previously available family/community support. Caregivers play a crucial role in children’s well-being in transnational families, as new actors take on caregiving tasks when biological parents do not.

Recent trigger events such as natural disasters, the opioid crisis, and technological advancements have caused a cascading effect on low-income families. Frequent relocations in childhood are associated with poorer child wellbeing, and shared experiences, such as music, family activities, and life events, can be negatively affected. Lockdown restrictions may impact daily family life, including interactions, shared family time, joint meals, and activities.

A transient lifestyle involves meeting more people than one can count and realizing that less is more. Undergoing repeated transitions can cause stress and undermine kids’ and their parents’ sense of control over their lives. Family relocation can have a profound impact on transient children (TCKs), affecting their sense of belonging, cultural identity, and overall well-being. Transitions can have both positive and potential negative effects on development depending on the developmental level or age of a child.

In conclusion, the transient lifestyle offers both benefits and challenges for families, but it is essential to consider the potential risks and benefits before adopting this lifestyle.

Children and families who frequently move between local authorities, including homeless, asylum seekers, refugees, gypsy, traveler, Roma, and those experiencing domestic abuse, face risks of falling through the net and disengaging from health, education, and other support systems. This can result in transient lifestyles and a reduction in previously available family/community support. Temporary accommodation, such as bed and breakfast or women’s refuges, may also present additional risks, as other adults may pose a risk to the child. Therefore, it is crucial for families to be aware of these potential risks and support systems.

A child and family, or pregnant woman, without a GP, without a school place, irregular attendance, or not being electively home educated are at risk. They may also have no fixed abode or lack coordination among multiple agencies holding information about the child and family. Professional curiosity is the ability to question and challenge assumptions without making assumptions or using professional optimism based on past and current circumstances.

It is essential to ask questions and share concerns with colleagues or supervisors to maintain good practice standards and develop a critical mindset. Professional curiosity is more likely when practitioners are proactive and share concerns with colleagues or supervisors.

What is an example of a transitional family?

Transitional families are formed when parents leave their home country to work abroad, leaving their children with a grandmother or aunt. This phenomenon is common in countries like the Caribbean and Ghana, where parents often leave their children while working in the United States, Canada, or Great Britain. Cape Verde, off the west coast of Africa, has a higher percentage of its population working outside the country.

In some cases, fathers may move the entire family to Canada or the United States while continuing to conduct business in their home country. The report concludes that leaving one’s family to sustain it takes a significant psychological toll.

  • I had an ischemic stroke, actually a TIA, about 5 years ago. I don’t smoke, drink alcohol, or take any prescription drugs, or street drugs when I had mine. Health wise at the time I did cardio exercise regularly every week. I was 25 lbs overweight and very A type personally. I also ate pretty good, by I ate fried foods, meats, etc.. Rarly ate vegetables and ate some fruit. I didn’t realize I had consistent high blood pressure which I had since I was 20 years old. I was 53 when I had my TIA. The doctors did all the needed testing. Cat scans, MRI, ultrasound of my heart, numerous blood tests, etc… Good thing was my heart was in great condition, no blocked arteries anywhere, no dangerous plaque anywhere. They put me on 5 different types of medications including an aspirin a day. They also had a physical therapist check me out. Thank God, no damage. Today 5 years later, I’m 25 lbs less, stress level very low, no more type A. I went completely plant based diet after it happened. I drink only water, raw garlic and honey water, hibiscus tea, and apple cider vinegar literally every day for 5 years now. I continue high intensity cardio exercise 5 days a week. As far as being on 5 medications, I’m now down to 1, 5mg daily of lisinipril and an aspirin a day. Planning on being off lisinipril in the next 6 months. I also have a home BP monitor and check my BP twice a day, doing it since I had the TIA. Prior to my TIA, my blood pressure when checked was always anywhere from 170/90 to as high as 180/95.

  • I disagree regarding statins. I was prescribed a statin without having a lipids profile performed. Two weeks after I discontinued the statin due to rhabdomyolysis, my total cholesterol was only 146 and the HDL:LDL ratio was high. It also caused a large increase in my blood glucose level. Statins should NOT be prescribed without knowing they’re necessary!

  • 4mnths post stroke neuro ir did coil & pipeline flow diverter 3mnths prior to stroke. Neuro Ir took me off blood thinners to soon and clot attached to stent broke apart went to watershed area of brain, I still have numbness in right arm:hand:foot. Had TIA a week ago. Cholesterol is good, none smoker, Hypotension, so Blood pressure wasn’t issue and no family history. So I’m clueless why this is going on? I’ve been on Mediterranean diet for months & still had stroke & Tia. I am currently taking 325mg aspirin went back on it after stroke . I have no answers, my neuro doc doesn’t know. I am seeing stroke specialist at Dallas soon I just want prevention & answers

  • I suffered a TIA three years almost to the date as a result of side effect ofa medication I was taking at the time to help with nerves and depression. I now suffer from memory lost, moments where were I lose my grip, I cannot concentrate for short or long periods of time, there are gaps in my memoires, I suffer mood swings and I lost most of my compassion and empathy. It sucks and it doesn’t help the depression or anxiety I already had. I have been completely socially isolated because I don’t feel comfortable around people. I also don’t have the drive to do anything. I wish I had better care at the hospital I was at and the first 24/72 hours are critical but because I was only 30 years old I feel I didn’t get the proper care I needed to prevent most of what I am going through today.

  • Hospitals, doctors offices and schools should be places where good nutrition is taught and provided not places that contribute to disease and obesity. It is crazy the hospitals are feeding people the very food that caused the heart disease, high blood pressure or cancer that they are treating. Every person in the hospital should receive some nutrition education before being released. Every doctor visit should be an opportunity to educate patients about how food choices impacts their health outcomes. The fact that doctors do not get nutrition training as part of their training makes no sense. Medicare and Medicaid should require nutrition education as part of patient care. Focus should be on food choices. Fasting should be investigated as a treatment for disease.

  • My husband had an ischemic stroke (he didn’t have any lasting effects thankfully), he’s on a heart monitor now, getting a loop soon. He’s a never smoker, rarely drinker but a Type A personality with high blood pressure on 2 bp meds (Losartan & a beta blocker). He is currently on Rosuvastatin and is being put on Repatha this week (insurance approved it). His BMI is 28/29. He has a normal A1C of <5.7. He was put on Plavix and aspirin and if diagnosed with afib will be put on Eliquis.

  • I am a 71 yr. old woman who walks all over my community. I am older than most of the other people I pass. My blood pressure is good, sometimes a little on the low side. My weight is good and so is my blood work, except for cholesterol, which is: LDL 107, HDL is 78, Triglyceride is102. I had a brief TIA in March of this year. On the scan with contrast, a 6mm aneurysm was discovered, which was an SHA. There was also a tiny one of 2mm. My cholesterol is high, a few numbers over normal. I wore the Holter monitor for 2 weeks and the results were good. At times my heart rate increased sometimes for over 30 seconds several times, but those times were when I was walking 5 miles in 85-90 degree heat. I am on Rosouvastatin 20mg and 81mg aspirin. I took Clopedigrel for 21 days.
