In this round you and your siblings will decide
-Where you were born
-Where you were raised
-Where your parents live
-Where you live
-What your relationship with your parents is like
-What your relationship with your siblings is like
-What your relationship with your grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles is like
-If you have a girlfriend/boyfriend/husband
-Who your friends are
-What your hobbies are
-Are there pets in the family
-Any medical conditions
-What parent's jobs are
-Looks
-Parent's looks
-What grade you are in/what major you are studying/what your job is
-Anything else you find relevant
Please keep in mind that you are not going to like everyone, or have a perfect relationship with everyone. 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 children
After 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.
Lihi met her husband while in the Army. Ilan's family had been in Israel since the 1800s and were of mixed* heritage.

Here's what I've got, feel free to critique or change stuff.
DD: Lihi Miriam Cohen (44, Tamir's twin)
-DH: Ilan Aaron Cohen (46)
--DD: Lena Jade Cohen (18) [Stephanie]
--DD: Elke Liat Cohen (13) [estel]
--DD: Yael Kate Cohen (9) [Eris]
Born: I would like Elke to have been born in Haifa.
Raised: I would like Elke to be being raised in Haifa as well, but that's open for debate.
Where Parents Live: I would say that the parents still live in Haifa, where they were raised. Maybe in an apartment or a flat.
Where Elke Lives: Elke lives with her parents, wherever they end up living.
Relationship with Parents: Elke has a good relationship with both of her parents, but of course, there are times when she disagrees with them.
Relationship with Siblings: As the middle child, Elke feels that she doesn't get a whole lot of attention. Lena, of course, is the oldest, and Yael is the youngest, but Elke feels like she doesn't always have a place. Elke gets along all right with both Lena and Yael, but prefers to hang out with her friends.
Relationship with other family members: Elke especially enjoys spending time with her grandparents--who always tell stories about the days when they first came to Israel. The only cousin close to Elke's age is Ora Aviyodeha, who is fourteen. She and Elke spend most of their time together at family events, simply because they are close in age. Elke isn't close with her older cousins, but doesn't dislike them.
Romantic Partner?: Lihi says that Elke is too young to have a boyfriend, but there is a boy at school, Arieh Rosenthal, whom Elke likes a lot.
Friends: Elke's best friends are in her year at school--Adena Bachman, Dorit Baum, and Kaila Wirth. She is also friends with a Muslim girl who lives nearby named Aqila Kader and her older sister, Farah. Elke's other friends in the neighborhood include Adara, Marni, Miriam, Moshe, Omer, Reuben, Sekel, and the twins, Tomer and Toiba. She is also friends with an American girl named Lauren, whose parents work at an archaeological site.

Two things
One, Elke and the Muslim girls probably don't attend the same school
Two, Ilan can look like that.
