Also, try and keep it somewhat realistic (for example, not everyone should get married at age 18, be a genius, and have two children, boy girl, and live in a house with a dog and a white picket fence, okay:) )Suggestions
Each person will suggest three possible events that could happen in the future (Pregnancy, Marriage, and Divorce do not count, but rather cancer, family reunion, or marrying someone's ex)How Tali and Eli raised their childrenAfter the end of World War I, the Mikaelov family was fearful. Having migrated from Russia to Germany a few years before the war (for work), they bitterly regret it. After much discussion, they decided to send their older children Danyel, Avraham, Mordechai, and Chana to live in a British territory that had a growing Jewish population. Chana was the oldest of the children, just 18 at the time, but she knew that she had to keep her brothers out of trouble. Once they arrived she immediately found a place for them to say, and while it was small, it did the trick. Unfortunately for the Mikaelovs, there was violence in the territory too, and even so, the boys were a little bit annoyed when their sister told them that they must be home before dark each night. Several years passed by and things seemed to go pretty well, other than the fact that the children had no idea what happened to their parents. After five years of not knowing, they all had had enough. Chana decided to go on her own and leave the boys together, after all they were only 20, 18, and 15. She never came back. Word was that her ship sunk. Dan, Mordechai, and Avi were devastated, but knew they had to move on. They all got married and had children. They all changed their last name to Michaeli when Israel became a state.Dan had three boys and then a daughter. Although he loved his sons very very much, his daughter was his favorite. He was so proud of her, of Talia, no matter what she did. He gave her his sister's name and would tell her stories about Chana and how many times she saved him from getting hurt.Talia's mother, Rivka, was born in what was, at the time, Hungary. She grew up in an influental Jewish family, but after the first world war, her parents found it unsafe to stay in their country, so they started slowly taking their cash out of the bank and selling their belongings. Once they felt it safe, they took of and sailed to Israel, via a port in Italy.Eli was born in Poland to a banking family. The family decided not to leave even after the trouble began because they didn't think much of it and they had invested far too much time and effort into the land. It turned out to be a big mistake. Eli's family of ten kids were all eventually deported to a concentration camp. Eli somehow managed to survive, along with his mother, but his father, and all but two of his siblings perished. As soon as she could, Miriam got her children out of Poland and took them to Israel, which had not yet become a state.When Eli came to Israel, the year before independence, he moved onto Talia's street and they soon became friends. Their parents always joked that they would end up together and were delighted when they did. The duo got married when they were 22 and 23. Two years later their first child was born and 18 months later came their second. Three years after that came twins. Eli worked in the Army and Talia taught Hebrew in many different schools.The children were raised in Haifa. Maya loved following Danny around everywhere and he truly didn't mind having her around. They'd go knocking on doors in the apartment building everyday after school so their friends would come out in play. Weekends were only a day long and the morning was spent in synagogue and the afternoons shopping. The twins often tagged along with their older siblings, but for the main part stayed with their mother.As the children grew, they began dating. Danny began dating when he was 18 and ended up marrying the same girl. Roni's father is of German heritage and her mother is of Moroccan heritage.Maya dated many guys, but finally settled on her brother's slightly older best friend, Ben. Like her parents' parents had, her parents too joked that they would get married. Tamir didn't really start dating until he met the right girl, Rachel. Rachel was an American Jew who had come to Israel for a year of study, she ended up staying.Lihi met her husband while in the Army. Ilan's family had been in Israel since the 1800s and were of mixed* heritage.Basically
