Yes, I typically use creationComplete and show together, both calling the initialization code.
Change is probably fine, though I prefer to keep code close to where it is needed, in this cast that is in the child component itself.

Also the "show" event of the TabNavigator children. The show is only dispatched if you hide it first It's either the TabNavigator's 'change' (your current method) or its children's 'initialize'. It's hard to say without knowing more about the sort of initialization you're doing here. I'm not using states. Assume you have 2 categories who have more or less the same settings. When you click a category, you get a dynamic generated settings page. You remember the chosen category so you can add dynamically the correct components. (assume I have different tabs, eg Settings, Content, About) If I choose another category, I need to reinitialize that settings page. Now it's done with catching the change event. Are there other ways? grtz
