Seriously, I wouldn't want anyone in my family spending their futures reading a word-for-word detail-by-detail account of their lives just in case there's something in there that might give them insight on how to positively impact my future (or want them to worry ahead of time about those things they couldn't change on my behalf).
I want the people I love to just live their lives, whatever happens, and let me live mine. I don't think they'd want to confine me and put responsibility for their futures on my shoulders either.
IDK. I don't think I'm well equipped for this "what if" exercise, even though it's really interesting. I keep thinking if it was possible to change what's in the book by reading it ahead of time, then it wouldn't be the story of my life at all -- it would be more like going to a psychic.
Anyway, once I took action to alter something seen in future, the remainder of the book would be rendered completely invalid -- domino effect, one change affects the rest of the chain.
