| Résumé : | Parental migration from the Philippines involves a separation between parents and children that generally lasts until reunification occurs, either in the Philippines or in the immigration country of the migrant parents. In the latter case, children who were formerly “left-behind” become immigrants themselves and members of the so-called “1.5-generation”. This situation entails challenges, particularly in terms of familial and social adaptation. Examining the case of 1.5-generation Filipinos in France, this chapter focuses on exploring their familial relationships and schooling experiences. Results of ethnographic fieldwork conducted in France and in the Philippines show how these migrants managed the pain of family reunification while adjusting to the French school system and environment. Scholastic success has subjective significations for these immigrants who envision their future professional lives in France while maintaining multiple ties to the Philippines. |
