Frequently asked questions

Can I put the question on the main canvas instead?

That asks it once for the whole family. Use Per-child fields when each child needs their own answer.

Can I require an answer for every child?

Yes. In Options → Per-child fields, enter the label and type, select Required, and click Add Field. The question then repeats separately for each child.
