Write one sentence explaining what the diagram is for and who will read it. A classroom exercise can use fictional people; a private family discussion may need a different scope. Include only the generations and relationships needed for that purpose. Mark the focal person and keep the draft small enough for another reader to follow. A diagram is a conversation aid, not a complete account or a diagnosis.
