It is important that MMB be allowed to answer the questions without any coaching from the sidelines. Once notions or answers are put into anyones head it tends to lead them away from their first thoughts. She needs to answer for herself rather than what she thinks Forrest or anyone else thinks she should say. Perhaps you should back off and let her respond.

Look not mournfully into the past. It comes not back again. Wisely improve the present. It is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy future, without fear. {Henry Wadsworth Longfellow}
