Immigration is a major transition that requires individuals to modify how they function as individuals, but also to reconfigure their family and social ties in order to adapt to it. Although children are at the heart of the families’ migration project, the children’s point of view is mostly absent from studies of migrant families. This article presents the experience of 43 children recently settled in Quebec of the interactions and daily activities shared with their mother, father and siblings, which allows us to understand their representations of the transformations of their family relationships during the migration process. Using children’s perspectives, these findings contribute to our understanding of the emotional family dynamics at play during immigration and the importance of loving and caring practices in the lives of immigrant children.
