Line 1: {{Era\|TS2}} [[Image:Family.gif\|left]]Sims with the '''Family''' [[aspiration]] aspire to get married and have children, and thrive on spending time with their family members. In the base game, this may be the most common aspiration, hence the long list below of base game Sims, and is chosen by many players. {{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> ~~==Premade Sims With Aspiration==~~ ~~{{For\|a complete list\|:Category:Family Sims}}~~ [[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. ~~===Pleasantview===~~ [[Brandi Broke]] 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}}.

If one wants to pair a Family Sim with another, the easiest are a [[Fortune]] Sim or a [[Knowledge]] Sim, since their wants won't clash very easily. 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" (unless you create the Sim [[elder]], and then it will be "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!" on both wants and fears. It's unknown why this happens (probably because they have just had a child and don't want the stress of another but the aspiration makes them want one) but you still get 3,000 ASP out of it. == 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]]~~ [[Category:Aspirations]]
