In 1964 14 children were interviewed for a documentary, "7UP". All of these children were seven years old and from completely different backgrounds, a snapshot of children all over Britain. The basic premise was to examine the Jesuit theory: "Give me a the child until he is 7, and I will show you the man." Is a person's fate sealed at birth?*
Here's what you can do to create your own 7-Up Lifeline. Draw a line across a page like this:
_____________________________________________
Divide the line into 7-year intervals. Write three high point of your life above the line and three low points of your life below the line for each 7-year interval. Then hyperlink or attach a picture, movie, PDF file, or text box of pertinent artifacts to points in your lifeline to record the experiences.
