EUMIND Report

1. Introduction

We did our research about how much the family life changed through the years. We
interviewed 3 grandparents, 3 parents and 3 teenagers. Why we did this is because we were
interested in how our parents and grandparents lived when they were our age. And we
wanted to look wat the differences were between their teenage life. How we did this is with
interviewing and to compare the results so we learn a lot of things we didn’t know about our
Parents and grandparents. Through our reports you can see how we compared it and what
the similarities were and what different was.
