Many Saigon Kids are in the over 65 age category and were previously ineligible to participate in Elizabeth Melles’ TCK Study (previously posted HERE).
Ms. Melles recently obtained approval from her Institutional Review Board (IRB) to extend the age range to 80 years.
Ms. Melles would be honored to have Saigon Kids over age 65 participate in her TCK Study.

I started this survey but stopped because I thought it was a bit too academic with the questions…how can someone 10 or 12 years old at the time response to rather complex questions like religion in ones life or volunteer work or interacting with the host country nationals….Missionary kids probably do more of that than military brats or diplmatic kids…..of course, the latter two catagories miss out on absorbing local culture, but that’s the life, especially in the lesser developed countries.
