My daughter has been reading a book that involves time travel. So, the question of the week around our house is, "If you couldn't come back to the present, would you rather travel to the past or the future?"
Of course, we had some additional questions....could you choose, specifically, what time period you landed in? In either time period, would you know what you know now? etc. Those questions were all debated, as well as the ethical aspects and potential dangers of doing things like going back in time and "inventing" things that would make you a lot of money.
The future, too, could hold many potential dangers.
I think, going back in time could be fun, but going into the future might be more adventurous.
What do you think? Which would you choose? Why?
Write a letter about it! If you're feeling creative and adventurous, write the letter as if you have already time-traveled.

what an interesting question. my mum and i have sometimes kicked this question around, and we always end up changing our minds ((and location, time and people we will meet)) rather frequently. what book were you two reading that brought up this question? thanks for the topic!
