Have You Told Your Children Your History?

Talking with my granddaughter today, I realized I hadn’t told my children or grandchildren much about my life. It wasn’t to hide anything, I just never discussed my life.

She had done Ancestry and met some family and dislodged some buried skeletons. These were things I only knew on the periphery too and didn’t really care about. We were trying to logic out some of the relationships. After I told her some history, she was shocked. I’d even forgotten most of it because it was historical and I just didn’t care. I imagine she‘ll be giving her mother and aunt an earful tomorrow.

Do your family know your history?
