Family Fork

A Family Fork in chess is a tactic where a piece, often a knight, forks the king, queen, and one other piece, usually a rook. It's called a family fork because the king and queen are typically referred to as the parents and the other pieces are the children. This move places multiple important pieces under attack simultaneously, pressuring the opponent to make strategic moves to minimize their potential losses.
