  As you watch consider: 

  • What they see as the benefits of the reflective discussion within In-the-Picture for both themselves and parents?
  • Why they feel parents’ interest in the discussion varies?
  • Which aspects of In-the-Picture parents are more likely to discuss

Make some notes in your notebook on your thoughts about these questions.
