How do I choose the right questions for family interviews?

What are some good questions to ask during family interviews?

It's important to ask open-ended questions that encourage storytelling. For example, you might ask, 'What was your childhood like?' or 'Can you share a memorable family tradition?'

How can I make sure the conversation flows naturally?

To ensure a natural flow, listen actively and ask follow-up questions based on their responses. This shows you're engaged and interested.

Are there any sensitive topics I should avoid?

Yes, it's best to avoid topics that could lead to discomfort, such as past conflicts or personal regrets, unless the interviewee brings them up.

What if someone is reluctant to share?

If someone is hesitant, try to create a comfortable environment. You can also reassure them that they can skip any questions they don't want to answer.
