ABOUT THE FAMILY
Parent #1
Full Name: Jacob Klement Maly “Coby”
Age: 34
Occupation: documentary filmmaker
Bio: Coby went to film school, and joined the Navy after he graduated. He served for six years before he was honorably discharged. He had wanted to gain experience in the real world before he committed to film. His experience made him more open to different kinds of people, so instead of screenwriting he decided to direct a documentary about cyber-terrorism. It was through this that he met Evren. They continued to talk and work on projects after the documentary filming was done, and became good friends. Coby dated other people for a few years, but none of his partners had the commitment he desired. Eventually he moved in with Evren, so he could focus on his work priorities and sober up. Then he realized that the one person who had stuck around, even as his fame was waning, was Evren. They dated for a few months, and married two years ago. Coby has always wanted children, and would love a large family, since he was an only child.
Parent #2
Full Name: Evren Ömer Solak
Age: 32
Occupation: white hat hacker
Bio: Evren first got into hacking when he was fifteen. At first he used the computer at a local cafe, until he was busted by the Turkish government. They were impressed by his skills, and got his father’s permission to hire him to find bugs in their database software. He moved up through the ranks until he became one of the prime minister’s cybersecurity advisors. This was his job when Coby interviewed him. Despite his relatively high-profile position, Evren is a rather shy and reserved man, in contrast to Coby’s fun-loving, try-anything-once personality. Shortly after they met, Evren was offered a job at the UN, as a white hat hacker. Evren was glad for a chance to do some concrete work, as well as the opportunity to live in the US. He and Coby worked on a few more projects together, and eventually started living in the same house. From there, it was an easy transition to being lovers, and an even easier one to marriage. Evren really loves children-- he had five little brothers and sisters growing up!-- and he was extremely happy when Coby told him he wanted to start a family.
Family language(s): Coby speaks English, and a little conversational Russian (he was stationed at St. Petersburg). He is learning Turkish. Evren speaks Turkish as a first language, and English as a second.
Family nationality (or nationalities): Coby is American. Evren is Turkish, and will be able to apply for US citizenship next year.
Family religion(s): Coby was raised in a secular family and doesn’t think much about religion. Evren was raised Muslim, but is now agnostic.
Family location: New York, New York

Meet Aziz Temel, Aslan Taylan, and Adalet Tahire, 3-year-old triplets from Turkey. Their parents were financially unable to raise them since they were only teenagers when the triplets were born, especially because they are special needs, but would love to communicate with the adoptive parents and their children, and possibly visit if they have the money. They all are on the autism spectrum, but are incredibly intelligent and love to talk, but they still have severe social and developmental issues. Aziz has been diagnosed with SPD, and they suspect Adalet has it too. Aslan loves to read, Aziz loves math and science, and Adalet loves to dance and paint, though she hasn't done much since she is still young. They are atheists and speak Turkish and English.
Please keep us informed about how they are doing and how communication with the parents has gone.

Coby has taken time off from his work to help the triplets adapt to their new home. Evren is determined to encourage all their interests and passions, and Coby has to hold him back from being a bit overprotective at times. The family's favorite thing to do together is to go to some of the smaller parks and just let the kids explore. Since Aziz and Adalet can get overwhelmed by large crowds, these parks provide a low-stress excursion. The greatest challenge the family is facing at the moment is that Aslan has a tendency to wander off. He seems to be learning that he must stay in sight of his dads, but to be on the safe side Evren and Coby have told their neighbors to keep an eye out.
The family Skypes the triplets' parents a couple times a week. Adalet loves to show them her paintings, and recently all three of them put on a puppet show.
Despite a few challenges along the way, Evren and Coby are overjoyed with their big new family. Fatherhood is even more rewarding than they expected!

I'm glad the children are doing well! Thanks for playing :)
