My children have two nationalities - luckily both of them are EU nationalities. However, since we live in the home country of my wife, my children have little to nothing in terms of contact with their second nationality of my home country. Both passports for them are largely interchangeable in terms of power and freedom of travel. My children also will never need to decide whether to give up either nationality, making it easier for them to just have a “passive nationality” in the back pocket.
Do your children also have more than one nationality? How does this impact your and their life? How do you manage to retain ties with both countries - if at all? I’d love to hear different perspectives on this topic.
I can’t speak as a parent, but as someone whose parents entitled me to duel nationality I’ve found myself very grateful.
After the Britain left the EU my other EU passport entitled me to continue moving round the EU without limits, free Uni, etc.
The increased freedom and backup home country in case of disaster is really powerful so definitely worth it IMO.
As for retaining ties, it’s hard not to settle in one country but having family you can stay with in either country makes things far easier.
Also make sure to teach your children both languages if you can, I found it helped develop my multi cultural interest and made it far easier to learn more languages later.
