Of you were to interview your parents or grandparents what would you ask them

[Lardlizard]

Ideas needed for time capsule project

Assume you mean if we had nice normal relatives??
I would like to know how many chores they did as a dc..
My dh has bizarre expectations of our dc - would love to know how much past dc did in their time..

A few for you-
What memorable moments do they have of their parents and grandparents (if they had them)

Favourite subjects at school and particular memories of school

As a child what did they think they would do work wise as an adult

Favourite songs and films

I had a long list for my dad when he was dying and really pleased I asked.

What music did they listen to as a teenager? Memorable TV or radio shows? Did they go on holiday? If so where? First time abroad? What toys did they have? First Car?

Thanks will
Be using these

Write down as much family tree as they can remember..and what the personalities of their grandparents was like

Why did you stop speaking Gaelic?

Mother: why was I the bad daughter?
Father: why did you not care for your health?
Grandad: what did I ever do to you?
Grandma: you had so many memories that I would have lived hearing, why did you die when I was 16?
