The four people that needed to be interviewed I found great candidates that were open to providing information, stories, and personal experiences. The two Interviewees that were at least 25 years older than me was my mother Cathy Ruggiero, and her boyfriend Kevin Russo. For the two people that were 40-45 years older than me was My Grandmother Nancy Walker Rinaldi and My Grandfather Ralph Ruggiero. While interviewing these people I discovered many similarities and differences from various time period. They were all asked roughly the same questions with some different follow up questions to expand on the original answer.

When her husband was a kid, he took them out to a drive thru. The men were very polite and would go out of their way to show courtesy like opening the passenger door for the woman. She spoke about how today men are still expected to do the same, it 's a tradition that has been around for a long time. A first date for Ralph was almost the same as Nancy 's, He drove to his date 's house and brought her out to eat where they got to know each other. Ralph told a story about meeting her parents before taking her out, “when I pulled into her driveway her father Mr. Russo came outside, I got out of my car and greeted him. He wanted to make sure I wasn 't a bad kid taking his daughter out, he was very protective and made her come home by 9”.

    The first person I interviewed was the Dental Assistant, I learned a lot from her. It was nice because I have worked with her for almost five years now and I never really asked why she decided to work in this field. She started off with a childhood story that was the back bone of her job choice. When she was ten years old she was riding her bike, she fell off and broke her front tooth off. She went to visit a dental office so that they could fix and she said she was so inspired by the way the dental assistant treated her and everything she did to make her feel comfortable. She said…

    When I first learned of this assignment my first thought was to interview my mom. She is the one person in my life I am closest to. Since we are only twenty three years apart, I thought it would be best to focus on her life up to the point where she decided to have kids. Though I knew most of what she told me it was still nice to just sit and talk about her life experiences.…

    The person that I interviewed was my mother, Catherine Scurlark. I thought I knew everything there was to know about her, but after this interview I feel like I have a much better perception about who she actually is and how the impact of events has shaped her into the woman that she is today. My mom is 50 years of age – according to Erikson’s Stages of Psychosocial Development, that puts her in the middle adulthood (generativity vs. stagnation) category. I am 20 years old, therefore my Eriksonian stage is the early adulthood, which puts me in the intimacy vs. isolation group. Since my mom is a little over 500 miles away; this interview was over the telephone taken on the day of April 2, 2016.…

    The interview process went well. Even though I am familiar with this family, I still conducted the interview professionally. I started out by stating my name, that I am a Bachelor of Nursing Student and that the purpose of the interview is to learn more about the family and that everything discussed will be confidential. I began by asking Melissa questions on the structure and composition of her family, and I drew out a rough draft of a genogram as she was answering my questions and providing me with information. I asked her to tell me about three generations, including both her and Scott’s children and parents. I also asked her include ages and the dates of death for those who have passed away. Once she gave me that information,…
