The Little Things
Hi guys,
I've thought of something we could do as a community which we already do anyways. What I've done is thought of a way to get the developers to add more detail and features into the future expansion packs to make them more realistic.

I wish the game would recognise them as twins, instead of just brothers. Also, I hope one day they will add special interactions for twins, like a secret language and maybe they are more likely to feel angry, if their twin feels angry.
I hope that memories like in Sims 2 will make a comeback. I feel like they make a huge difference, while they are not really difficult to add and don't waste resources.
The family tree needs to be fixed. Culling shouldn't affect the stagnant family tree.
Another idea I had was pocket money for kids and teens. We have voidcritters for the kids and I think it would be cute to add a piggy bank to the game for the kids. I donÄt know if that's possible, but it would be cute.
-Tin cans on string yous sims can talk through
-70s themed objects/clothes would be nice!
-Board games to play with family/friends on the floor or table
-Hidden lot- large treehouse/clubhouse
-Vases to fill with flowers you grow
-Bullying (bully other sims or be bullied)
OH I love it!
I'm going to add the funeral one as well. I want to be able to host funerals at a grave site.

A list things I would like to see in family play to come when I finish my list.

@MadameLee I think the idea was for them to automatically do so, instead of us making the sims do it ourselves.
"Dr Moose's daycare challenge "
The Sims 3 - Wishlist/Top5
and i'm telling you in my game when Free Will is on the kids go automatically to the working parent when the parent comes home without me doing anythiny. Also I'm not the only one whose sim children go and hug their working parent when they come home-other people have it as well . You are spamming the forum by making an identical thread.
Thread updated
Recent Idea: Beer Goggles.

Which result in drunken weddings to totally the wrong sim?
Family Tree
Playing Mod & CC Free
Yep. My sim did this too. Totally autonomously, the child ran to the parent when they arrived home from work to give them a hug. They actually stopped what they were doing to do so. It could have been a chance hug, and the timing could have been coincidental. But since the child actually stopped playing on the water slide to do this, I feel like it was programming. I do wonder if the devs have surreptitiously added this in a patch recently, because it was the first time I'd seen a Sim do this.
I think that's because all sims hug like that, not that children have a special and unique motivation and interaction with parents like TS2 did.
And also Rebel Trait, Which is available for Childrens, Teens, Y. Adults, Adults, and Elders(because for example you pick rebel trait as an teen, and when you become an elder, the trait can't just go away, it has to stay there, i know it may not make sense, rebellious elders, but, it wouldn't make sense for the trait to just dissapear and make you pick another trait when your an elder, that would be really REALLY silly.), and i bet you already know what disasters rebellious sims make, so i won't have to explain.
there should be 3 new age-groups(which would be nicer for ea to add them in a simple free update, but its ok if they add it in a possible generation expansion pack) which are: Toddlers, Pre-teens and Middle Agers(the ones between adults and elders, not really elders, but kinda more older adults)
You know the relationship bars? (friendship, and romance, in sims 4.) well, they should add a new bar, a trust bar! how much a sim trusts another sim, as i explained earlier, nurturing sim-parents need to have trusts in their nannies to let them babysit their baby(ies)/toddler(s)/child(ren) and/or preteen(s) (i think preteens need nannies too, i think, because afterall, their the in between of teens and children, so their not really teens who can take care of theirselves.), but not only how much nannies and nurturing sim-parents trust each other, how much grandparends, parents, children, siblings, cousins, nieces, nephews, uncles, aunts, best friends, friends, etc! trust eachother.
plus, ea should make sims hair grow as they grow up, for example. babies have no hair, toddlers have short hair (and of course they have options to costumize their hair and make different hairstyles, but just short hair hairstyles for now, since their hair is small), children girls have large-y hair, children boys can have large-y hair too, they can go to the hair salon and cut their hair if they want, children girls can too.(oh and i forgot, there should be hair salons) and i guess you get it, just like in real life! they go at the salon and get shorter hair, when they get home they can make short hairstyles, with long hair they can make long hairstyles, and thats kinda all of my ideas, they're lots, i know.
Sorry, If came off a big harsh it just I been reading Lenore (if you over 18 and are a parent you might know her as "World's Worst Mom" since in 2009 she allowed her then nine-year-old son to ride the NYC subway alone) free-range kids blog. Technically what you were saying were the people who helicopter their kids do what's called (by Lenore) as "Worst-First Thinking" ie thinking all strangers (regards of gender) are "Out" to "Get" her children. (if you know what I mean by "Out" and "Get")--it's goes as far as to CPS, Police, schools&daycares having that "Worst-First Thinking". Well, Free-Range parenting (what Nurturing actually is) is to allow the children to play, get hurt- basically allow them to learn to be independent and learn skills for when they're older.
sorry for the little lesson "Free-Range" parenting and I'm not even a parent myself!!
Family photos, more poses/backgrounds included. Wedding pictures. Birthday pictures. Photo albums? More picture frames, larger then default photographs.
I want to take more pictures of my adorable families as they grow, basically.
I like the idea of funerals, maybe more in-depth weddings.
I've been wanting some sort of individual accounts for a long time. Children & teens could get an allowance and/or put in the money they earn themselves to spend at the stores or festivals, or just save the money up for their first apartment when they grow up. Even the grown ups could get in on it. They could keep a "secret" account from their spouse, or roommates could have their own account & just chip in to the main account to pay bills. And complain when someone's not paying their fair share.
