Line 1: {{Era\|TS2}} [[Image:Family.gif\|left]]'''Family''' is an [[aspiration]]. It is commonly known for it's easiness to fulfill wants. Family Sims aspire to settle down and have children, and thrive on spending time with their family members. {{all \|name = Family \|image = [[File:Family Sim.jpg\|235px]] \|caption = A family brunch }}{{minibox\|start}}{{minibox\|userbox\|The Sims Wiki:Userboxes/aspirations}} {{minibox\|end}} <blockquote class="note">Sims with the Family Aspiration long to be part of a big, happy family. They need "Quality Time" with family members, and lots of meaningful interactions with all the branches of their family tree. Keep their Aspiration Meters overflowing with familial bliss, and they'll live long and "fruitful" lives.</blockquote> [[File:Family.png\|left]]'''Family''' is an [[Aspiration (The Sims 2)\|Aspiration]] in ''[[The Sims 2]]''. Family Sims aspire to get [[married]] and have [[children]], as well as having "Quality Time" with their family members. Starting as a [[teen]]ager, Sims already want to fall in love and go steady with their lover. The next important phase for Family Sims is in [[Young Adult]] or [[Adult]]: to get engaged and [[Marriage\|married]]. After that, they will usually want to have many babies. Elders will want grandchilden. As the Sims' family is growing, they will want their grownup children to get engaged and married, and eventually want to see their grandchildren. Family Sims will love to spend their quality time in [[Winter]]{{Vgversion\|TS2:S}}, since it's the time to spend with family. Also, they want to constantly keep [[pet]]s{{Vgversion\|TS2:P}}. ~~===[[Teenager]]===~~ {{clrl}} A teenager's wants will focus on meeting new Sims, making friends and teaching his or her siblings new skills (i.e. walk, talk, potty train, doing homework). Their big wants are having their first kiss and going steady. ==Aspiration Monikers== ~~Meter Level for teenager:~~ Platinum: Shining Example Gold: Pride and Joy Upper Green: Good Son / Darling Daughter Lower Green: Routine Relative Mild Red: Bad Seed Lower Red: Family Flunk Out {\| class="wikitable" ~~===[[Adult]]===~~ !Level Adult have wants like having a number of babies, get married, engaged, making friends with his or her sons or daughters and teach them new skills.

When the [[aspiration bar]] is at deep red for a long time, then they will pull out a sack of flour with a face painted on it and will begin to rock and cuddle it like a baby. {{Col-break}} ~~==Huge Wants==~~ Become Captain Hero ~~===Teenager===~~ Have 6 grandchildren First Kiss Marry off 6 children Go Steady Reach Golden Anniversary ~~===Adult===~~ Graduate 3 Children from College{{Vgversion\|TS2:U}} Have a Baby (+8,000 aspiration) Raise 20 Puppies or Kittens{{Vgversion\|TS2:P}} Have 10 Children (+15,000 aspiration) {{Col-break}} Get Engaged (+ 7,000 aspiration) Become Education Minister{{Vgversion\|TS2:S}} Get Married (+8,000 aspiration) {{Col-end}} Help Child with Homework (+3,500 aspiration) Fall in Love (+5,000 aspiration) ==Aspiration Desperation== Child is an overacheiver (+5,000 aspiration) [[File:Family Desperation.jpg\|right\|thumb\|Love Flour Sack Baby]] Child gets A+ on report card (+4,000 aspiration) Family Sims have high-impact fears about relatives dying, losing friends and being rejected for [[interactions]] by their children or grandchildren.

So, I guess it depends on how good the relationship between the Sims are. :'''Level 3 -''' Plead with social worker If one wants to pair a Family Sim with another, the easist is a [[Fortune]] Sim since their wants won't clash very easily. :'''Level 4 -''' Super Fertility You should creat a family sim married or at least with one (or more) children, because most of the family sims' lifetime want is "marry of six children" (unlee you create the sim elder, and then it will be "have six grandchildren") and that is somthimg very hard to achive, so you have to make a lot of children, and fast. also recommended is to adoped children when they are children and not babies or toddlers. ==Career Paths== ===Base game=== [[Law Enforcement]] ===The Sims 2: Seasons=== [[Education]] ===The Sims 2: Pets (console)=== [[Medicine]] ==Premade Sims With Aspiration== ~~[[category:aspirations]]~~ {{For\|a complete list\|:Category:Sims with the Family aspiration}} == Tips & Tricks == It is not recommended to pair a [[Romance]] Sim with a Family Sim, because their wants will clash, since Romance Sims fear commitments. If one wants to pair a Family Sim with someone that doesn't also have the Family aspiration, the easiest are a [[Fortune]] Sim or a [[Knowledge]] Sim, since their wants won't clash very easily. Fortune Sims make particularly good partners for Family Sims, as their desire to earn raises and promotions will leave their spouses free to be homemakers and stay-at-home parents. Knowledge Sims make good co-parents for Family Sims, as they roll wants to teach toddler skills and study skills more frequently than most other aspirations. You should create a family Sim married or at least with one (or more) children, because most of the family Sims' [[lifetime want]] is "marry off six children" (or "have six grandchildren") and that is something very hard to achieve, so you have to make a lot of children, and fast. Also recommended is to adopt children when they are children and not babies or [[toddler]]s. Sometimes Family Sims get "Have a Child" as both a want and a fear. It's unknown why this happens, though it may be because they have just had a child and don't want the stress of another even though the aspiration makes them want one. Still, having another child is worth a net 3,000 ASP. When returning from work, Family Sims will occasionally launch into an "I'm home!" animation, even if no one else is home. This can be stopped by canceling the "At Work" icon in the Sim's action queue, but if it is not canceled, it will run for about 30 game minutes. There is a [http://cyjon.net/node/57 mod] by Cyjon that will suppress this. [[Townie]]s and [[Non-playable character\|NPCs]] with the zodiac sign of Aquarius or Cancer generally have this aspiration. *Having the Family aspiration may not prevent Sims from wanting to flirt with another Sim, even if the former is already in a relationship. {{aspirations}} ~~{{Sims2aspirations}}~~ [[ru:Семья (жизненная цель)]] [[Category:Aspirations]]
