TCKid.com HAS REACHED 2000+ MEMBERS!!!

Posted by Cynthia on September 6th, 2008 | Categorized as General Forum | 196 views and 5 Comments

Congratulations to TCKid.com for reaching 2000 members :)  Not sure when the milestone is set as but we’ll treat it like computer bits and assume today 2025 members will be the milestone for 2000 members LOL

As one of the officers, I’d like to thank everyone for all the support TCKid.com has been getting since its launch from the very beginning.  There are still a lot of work to do but we have made it this far and I’d like to ask every TCK out there to give themselves a pat on the back for being truthful to yourselves about your background, your experience and your feelings about everything.  You are all very brave to step out and share and finally fight that demon of “not knowing who you are” and breaking down that boundary.  For those that are still struggling, please applaud yourself for the effort that you have put into everything and realizing this whole TCK concept.

Congratulations for making it this far!  As mentioned before, there are yet a lot of work to do, a lot more people to reach out to and a lot more struggles to be dealt with but keep it up!!!

Congratulations TCKid!! :)

Cynthia

    Thanks to everyone who has helped promote a sense of belonging and a safe place to share your story, regardless of your race, background, and cultural identity.

    I think we sometimes take this for granted. But think about it, there was a time when we didn’t have a sense of belonging… we didn’t know anything about being a TCK.

    What everyone has done here is incredible… you’ve helped promote a sense of belonging.

    Big kudos to Ayako, our forum admin, who has been very helpful answering emails and providing support.

    Thanks to Cynthia, for making newcomers feel welcomed, giving them resources, raising awareness, and fostering a sense of community.

    And of course, special thanks to all the volunteers and admins, in no specific order: Laura, Paul, Erin S., Uncle Dan, Miyon, Kristine, MsMerising, Mairabay, Isa, Caitlin, Paulette, Ruth, and all the gang. If I forgot to mention your name here, it’s because I’m a dummy, not because we don’t love you. :)

    Thanks to every TCK who helped others. If you made one helpful comment and made someone feel welcomed, then you’re a friend of mine.

    Finally, I want to thank the anonymous TCK reading this. We’re doing this for you.

    Peace <3

    I’d like to thank everyone who posts in these forums. Without activity a forum is nothing but an empty space. A forum is all about the active members who are in it who express their views.

    I’d also like to thank all the members for having much better manners than members in other forums - hence making my job easier. ;)

    Keep posting everyone!
