Tips & Tricks

  • It is not recommended to pair a Romance Sim with a Family Sim, as their wants will clash.
  • 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 toddlers.
  • 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.
