Questions to ask · Family · for your Dad

What was a moment when you felt you got it right as a dad?

Why this question matters

These are the memories you were there for but too young to remember. Hearing them from your dad fills in the start of your own story.

Ask it on a quiet afternoon, give time for the answer, and write down the small details. That is where the story lives.

  1. What did you feel that first night we were all home together?
  2. What is the funniest thing I ever said or did as a kid?
  3. What did we love doing together when I was little?
  4. What was the hardest part of raising me?
  5. When did I make you proudest?
