Story sharing isn't just heartwarming. It's science.
At Dive Deep Dialogues, we didn't build MyStories FOREVER Vault just because stories are precious. We built it because research proves that families who share stories raise more resilient children, maintain stronger bonds, and create communities that support each other.
The "Do You Know?" scale developed by researchers at Emory University found that children's knowledge of family history was the single best predictor of emotional health and happiness.
Part of
Dive Deep DialoguesMore Resilient
Children who know their family stories show significantly higher resilience when facing challenges.
Emory University Research
Stronger Identity
People with a strong "intergenerational self" - knowledge of family history - report higher self-esteem.
Duke University Study
Better Connected
Families who share stories regularly report three times stronger emotional bonds between generations.
Family Narratives Project
"The more children knew about their family's history, the stronger their sense of control over their lives, the higher their self-esteem, and the more successfully they believed their families functioned."
