Call: We are looking for families!

Childhood shapes us in many different ways. When we have children ourselves, we are increasingly confronted with our early experiences. For our «Imprinting» dossier, we are looking for mothers and fathers who are willing to talk about how they deal with their imprints. Are you ready for a short interview for our «I tell/wetell» section?

It's about questions like the following: What was taken for granted in your family of origin? What convictions did your parents pass on to you, what beliefs, what self-esteem? How did the zeitgeist, your environment, other people, an illness perhaps shape you? How are your influences reflected in your everyday life with your own children? What imprints would you like to free yourself from - and what do you consciously do with your children in the same way as your parents did with you?

The texts will be relatively short (approx. 2400 characters). As the articles will be illustrated, families should also be open to photos. Ideally, you should have children between the ages of 7 and 15.
