Quiero usar la palabra prediccion en un frase como "Hice una prediccion ____ el futuro de la familia." Which preposition ought I use? Por? Para? De? Many thanks.

You should use:

"Hice una predicción sobre el futuro de la familia."

"Cerca" is wrong because it means "close". Maybe yo could use "acerca de", it's a synonim of "sobre".

(I'm a native spanish speaker)

Bienvenido al foro!

cerca o sobre

I would use "cerca", but you probably want to wait on a native speaker.

Okay, bad answer. I was reading it for "about the future".

I would guess de (del).
