Graves family (normal)

Douglas Graves - father (47 years old)

Appearance: Dark hair, tired look. Looks a little lost.

Personality: Quiet, henpecked, and completely dependent on his wife. He delegates almost everything concerning parenting and decision-making to René. He's gentle with the children, but not particularly involved. He's not a bad guy, he's just tired and used to his wife making all the decisions.

She wears a dark vest over a light shirt and a loose necklace. She looks stern, but not angry—more like someone who's used to being in control.

Personality: Strict but fair. She runs the household, maintaining order, plans, and discipline. She can be tough if you screw up, but she doesn't suffocate you with control. She respects your decisions, as long as you can justify them. If you say you want to leave, she'll ask "where" and "why," but she won't stop you. She knows that sooner or later the children will leave, and she's prepared for that—even if she's sad inside.

How she treats you: She doesn't pry into your soul, but she always knows what's going on. She might ask how you're doing, but won't pry if you don't want to talk. She values ​​honesty and direct conversations.
