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.Basically

COMPLETED: Story & Questions for Asher Gideon Aviyodeha--DS: Asher Gideon Aviyodeha "Ash" (24) [AnnaMarie]

Ash was born in Haifa, the same city in which his parents grew up in, and Asher himself grew up in, and still lives in! Both of Asher’s parents are now retired, but Dan was a university history professor & Roni was a nurse. Both Dan & Roni have dark brown hair, but Dan has brown eyes, whereas Roni’s are hazel.-What your relationship with your parents is like

-What grade you are in/what major you are studying/what your job is

These questions are just for Asher so...
Asher was always a good kid, made reasonably good grades and was a fairly talented football player. When he was about 15 though he made friends with a new crowd of people and started going off the rails. He began sneaking out, partying, drinking, smoking, stealing and just generally being a delinquent. Danny & Roni didn't know what to do about their little boy who was quickly travelling down a path that would lead to serious trouble. They employed a few tough love techniques that Asher hated them for at the time, but is very thankful for it now... Looking back, Asher knows the moment they got through to him - it was just before his 17th birthday and that night he and his friends had broken into a liquor store and got caught. He got locked up, and Danny & Roni left him there in a last ditch effort to get through to him. It worked. Asher spent 6 days in jail before he was realeased without charge and from then on he avoided his ex-friends.

Question:Do we need to write a full prompt or can we just put them done next to each other & going into a little bit of detail there?

Whatever you want & (AnnaMarie) You can't use LeviLevy is Maya's surname.

Really? But Levi & Levy are pronounced totally differently?....But if I have to change it, make it Asher... hopefully that's ok?
vote up1
In Hebrew they are the same. It's like Eden in English (ee-den) and in Hebrew (eh-din), Levy just tries to stick to the Hebrew pronouncation, but in Hebrew they're both Leh-vee. Yeah, that's fine, sorry about all the confusion.

That's fine then :) Asher it is!a

Two Things1. I just realized is not a Jewish name (it is biblical, but not Jewish), so would you mind changing it to Shoshana or something?
2. Can Susannah be close to Carmel (19)?

2. Yes, of course!

Ok for the discussion questions, what do we think? I think it would be nice if all the kids were born in israel, and raised near our grandparents? Levi for one will still live there... What do you guys think for jobs, looks etc?

-What parent's jobs are
-Parent's looksBorn & raised in Israel sounds good! Shoshana will also be living in Israel, but not as close to Levi or the grandparents. Our parents still live in Israel? Jobs.. hmm... they could be retired, but we need to think of what jobs they retired from. Looks... dad: brown hair, brown eyes.. mom: brown hair, hazel eyes? We can go into more detail for that later.
vote up1
Still living in Israel, and the looks sound good to me...As for their jobs, maybe Dan was either a scholar of some kind, maybe a college history professor? Or maybe the other direction and he was in a very physical line of work, maybe a builder? Or maybe somewhere in the middle like an architect?For Roni, maybe a nurse? or a dance teacher? suggestions?
vote up1
I like the idea of Dan being a scholar, then his kids [us] could be hard workers & smart! Roni.. a nurse sounds good.I wonder what our sister thinks..
vote up1
So Dan is a college history professer and Roni a nurse?Sounds good :)Hmmm I wonder... hopefully she'll turn up soon to tell us!Are you going to write a bit of a story about Shoshana?

Yes! That sounds good to me!I probably will, it may not be long & I have an insane week ahead of me, so I'll try to write what I can.

Should we go into detail ...?about each city that we all live in or just stick with general Israel?

I think maybe the grandparents, parents & Levi still live in Haifa...

Sho's going to live in Hadera.. which is in the Haifa District.
