25 questions you still want to ask your parents

This may sound crazy, but I sometimes forget that my parents are also ‘normal’ people with their own lives, struggles, friends, and so on; to me, they are just my dad and my mom. That's why it can be quite difficult to have a deep conversation with them, as it often revolves around standard things like work. With these 25 questions, you can dive a little deeper into the material, because that can be nice for a change. You will definitely discover fun facts that you would never have looked for or things you would rather not have known afterward. A tip: make yourself comfortable because you will definitely still be listening to them two hours later, as once parents start talking about the past, they can't stop.
