Fears

All Sims have both fears and wants these fears change continuously through the life of a sim and help govern how their life is run.

Types of Fear

 * Sims of different aspirations have different fears, for example, a Romance sim will have a fear of rejection, where as a Knowledge sim will have a fear of loosing a skill point.
 * Types of fears include being rejected for a social interaction, sims dying, dead sims returning as zombies, families breaking up or an event occurring such as the Social Bunny.

Changing Fears

 * As sims grow their fears change. A child sim may fear their parents breaking up where as an adult may not.
 * Relationships with other sims change sims fears about them. As they were becoming friends fears may include being rejected for a social interaction, as the relationship progresses this fear will be changed for a more complex interaction or fear of the sims death.
 * Fears can also change as the Life of a sim changes. For example, a sim may fear having another child if they already have 4, or a sloppy sim may fear changing a diaper is a baby is born.

Degree of fear

 * Degree of fear is measured by the number of Aspiration Points or Influence points having this fear realized looses.
 * Specially strong fears will have a star background.
