Micromanage everything my sims do. I am in full control!
Let my sims be as free as I can. Only micromanage when necessary.

So in one apartment I had a son and his mom who are both main sims and I micromanaged both of them and the whole apartment really.
And in another I have a mom/son/daughter but only the daughter is a main sim so she is micromanaged and the others are just having random tantrums and disturbing her all the time and using the toilet when she needs to go 😂

Other times I do have a pretty clear idea of how I’m going to roleplay a sim but it might change, heavily influenced by whatever shenanigans happen in the game. For example, I was going to play my first TS4 couple as very faithful but then BOTH of them accidentally started a romantic interest relationship because I didn't realize certain interactions were romantic. I just decided to roll with it and RP them as a couple who have a mutual open-ish relationship, i.e. flirting around is allowed but nothing more serious. I’m now glad this happened because it opened the door for some later hilarity like the husband having a love-hate thing with the Grim Reaper.
Not to say I don't micromanage at all. I'll intervene if I don't feel good about what's going on e.g. a sim behaving too out of character. Because while I am pretty open for developments and my sims might go into different directions from what was originally planned (like in the earlier example), there's still a certain basis I'll hold onto. Plus I'll happily do stuff like intentionally sabotaging the character values lol.
In all seriousness, I use MCCC's control and tuning modules a lot.

Just a bunch of little rules. but my favorite is having outdoor dining and music so visitors never come inside the house unless it's one at a time, because, they'll eat breakfast or premade birthday cakes and just generally ruin everything. Like "I don't want you washing plates and taking out the trash, my teen ages up in a few days, and I need those chores for character values, y'know".
That sounds GREAT! I can't imagine what it'd be like to play with Wants/Fears AND Lifestyles on at the same time (I turned Lifestyles off for my main save ages ago) - must be pure CHAOS!! Mwahaaa!
