i missed a kind of coach, sales at home in belin, born in germany to talk his parents. she grew up with 2 languages and 2 coaches. but when it came to citizenship as a teenager, she was faced with a choice and more testing. mm hm. my mom came to me and asked, so what do you want to be gentlemen? oh, turkish. and then it took a little while to figure out what to do, how much the as a child's melissa had tucker citizenship. later she chose to apply for a german passport instead, rose at the time when she could only have one of the alpha. then instead of having to choose between 2 identities, the coaches were just talking about a possible what it was moved and that of course, yeah. so it's not a nice feeling that well not. but for me it was clear quite quickly for ms. ross
