If your grandparents were still around today, what would you ask them?

My grandparents lived as young people during the second world war and I wish I had asked them about that. They were all 60+ when I was born so they were all getting on when I was in my teens and so never thought to ask about their war lives and in my early 20s they had died or got dementia or cancer so it was too late. I wish I had asked more about family history too and for advice on things about coping and how to handle problems. It is sad now not to have asked.

I would ask them about their childhoods and adult life's. I would ask them their different feelings and thoughts about things that were important to them while growing up and throughout their years. I would ask them what in their life's did they enjoy the most? I would just want to get to know them better. My Grandmother, my Dads mom, was 7 years old when she watched the small airplane her mom was in plunge to the ground and burst into flames. I would want to comfort her now if she was still here and talk to her about how she felt and the effects it had on her life. But most of all, I would want to tell my grandma what a wonderful person she was and I would tell her I love her and miss her with all my heart.

I'd ask them to tell me the story of how they met; who their fav son/daughter is; lowest mark they ever got in an exam; if they ever disobeyed their parents; what the world was like in their time; and what their most memorable experiences are. :)

What did they do with all the horse manure in the streets from all the horse drawn trolleys, coaches, and transportation???
