Mom Landgraab

Mom is a Sim character featured in The Sims Bustin' Out and The Sims console games and lives in SimValley. The player starts his or her Sim's life with with her in either The Sims Bustin' Out's Bust Out Mode or in The Sims's Live mode.

The Sims (Console)
In the console versions of The Sims, Mom is featured as an elderly African American woman living alone (until the player moves in) in her home. Unlike in The Sims Bustin' Out, Mom is playable in The Sims. Apparently, once the player moves in, Mom expects the player to be her sort of "slave." If you tell Mom to do any sort of work (including cooking, cleaning, etc.), she will refuse to do it, placing the burden on the player's Sim.

The player can move out of Mom's home, after he or she has warmed his or her Mom up to him or her and "borrowed" §800 from her. He or she then can move into the abode of Mimi Landgraab (if your sim is a female) or Dudley Landgraab (if your sim is a male), where he or she is expected to clean up all his or her mess and buy improvements for his or her home. She will get married at the end of the fifth level with Malcolm Landgraab and leave his mansion to the player since he/she has the biggest family (two child's and a spouse).

The Sims Bustin' Out
In The Sims Bustin' Out, Mom is featured as an older (or at least appearing to be) woman. She wears a green facial mask, along with a pink bathrobe and pink bunny slippers. She is the mother to Mimi and  Dudley Landgraab, along with the player (leading us to think that, as the player, you are also a sibling of  Mimi and  Dudley). Through her various complaints, we also see that Mom is the ex-wife of the infamous Malcolm Landgraab. She lives in a quaint country home, surrounded by farms.

When the player first begins to play, he or she is taken to a night-club setting and must kiss either Peter Tutti or Candi Frutti (depending on the player's Sim's gender). Mom pops up out of what seems to be thin air, and lectures the player's Sim because Malcolm is stealing his or her motor-scooter. The player is then transported back to Mom's home, where he or she must complete a set of five pre-decided goals, including Find a Job. Until the Sim uses the newspaper to do this, Mom will nag him or her repeatedly. Her nags can be ignored and the player can remain living in her home, but that is up to the player to decide. This is a great level to raise some skills before trying a career.
