Hello Parents,

We are graduate students in the Human-Computer Interaction (MS-HCI) program at Georgia Tech investigating the communication habits between "empty nest" parents and their adult children. We are grateful to all of you who took the survey that we shared last semester, and we are reaching out to again ask for your help. This request goes to all parents with no other children at home, whether or not you took the initial survey.

At this stage in our project, we are looking to gather feedback on a design concept we have created. We would greatly appreciate your participation in a 45-minute feedback session with us. If you are interested, please fill out this form https://forms.gle/cwfPCWJZnQMhE2UE6

We can reassure you that no personally identifiable information will be made public, and any responses will be used solely for our master’s thesis project, meaning, no products or solutions will be developed commercially as a result of our research.

We thank you for your time and consideration.

Best,
Melinda You and Sydney Young
