Questions to ask
Questions to ask your daughter
It is easy to talk to your daughter every day and still never ask the questions that matter. These are the ones that show her you are actually curious about who she is, not just how her day was.
Record a few of her answers, whatever her age. The way she talks, the things she cares about, the sound of her laugh right now: capture it before this version of her becomes a memory.
Who she is right now
- 01What is lighting you up these days that you wish I paid more attention to?
- 02What is the best thing going on in your life right now?
- 03What are you proud of that you have not told anyone?
- 04What do you think you are really good at?
- 05If today could repeat forever, would you pick it? Why or why not?
How she sees things
- 01What is something people your age understand that mine does not?
- 02Who do you admire right now, and what for?

- 05When have you been braver than you felt?
You and her
- 01What is something about me you wish were different?
- 02What is a moment with me that you hold onto?
- 03Is there something you wish I understood about you?

The road ahead

My daughter gives short answers. How do I go deeper?+
Ask follow-ups that are curious, not corrective: 'what made you say that?' Keep your face open and do not judge the answer, or the door closes.
She is little. Which questions work?+
Use the playful ones and treat it like a game. Her small answers, in her small voice, become treasures once she is grown.
How do I keep these?+
Shtello Legacy stores your recordings and can deliver them back to her on a future date, like a birthday or her wedding. Free to start.
