The Big Questions guided journal encourages active listening and sharing-focusing on finding common values and family history. It promotes the exploration of the deep family roots that unite us. Someone once said that we understand our parents best when we see them as children. And in a time of generational, political, and geographical separation, the ability to connect with our parents is more challenging than ever. Talking to the people closest to us can be hard. That's where The Big Questions can help. This interactive book of questions encourages empathy and bonding by allowing our parents to tell their own stories. It's an excuse to ask them the questions we've always wanted to know the answers to-and to record them for posterity. The Big Questions helps us talk to our parents about their lives and the forces that shaped them. The Big Questions will be an essential tool for anyone wishing to have deeper, more engaging conversations with their parents, as well as celebrate family history.
