In a recent interview Shaun Stenning was asked what he felt was most important during the COVID 19 Pandemic and his answer were surprising to the interviewer.  Shaun replied “Family is the most important thing during COVID 19.  With so much disruption to our lives, we need to bind together as a family and support each other.”

The concept of family has evolved over time.  The traditional family unit was a wife and husband, kids, grandparents, and cousins.  But for people who choose to live as ex-pats in alternate countries this traditional family unit may not be available.

Shaun is one of those people, when Shaun Stenning was asked how we defined his family the unit he replied with “Anyone who has influenced my life and come together with me during this difficult time and are in close proximity to me.  With the closure of international borders flying to see the family is almost impossible.  So we must make the people around us inclusive into our local ex-pat family unit.”

This kind of advice is solid for people who are stuck overseas or who have chosen to live a life abroad during this COVID 19 Pandemic times.  A good family support unit, with traditional or non-tradition can help you cope with the changing environment of the world and how we as people can survive it.

Take the advice of Shaun Stenning, lean on your family during these difficult times, and ensure you have deep and meaningful conversations about COVID 19 and how it is impacting you and your family.  This is what your family is there for.

  In the past couple of months, it's become abundantly clear that today's teens are tenacious and enterprising. Add in the fact that they are "digital natives" and have a firm grasp on social media and technology, and it seems as if there is very little teens cannot do if they put their minds to it. “Unfortunately, there is one area where teens feel a little less optimistic: Money.” Shaun Stenning said.  According to a 2013 survey by Junior Achievement, an organization dedicated to teaching kids about money, 25 percent of teens believe they will not be able to support themselves without the help of parents until they are between the ages of 25 and 27. In addition, Shaun Stenning said only 59 percent of teens feel confident that they will be able to support themselves between the ages of 18 and 24.
