Once you get to a certain point in a relationship with your spouse or partner (usually – sometimes babies come via short-term relationships or hookups), you or your partner will end up pregnant.
Have the baby and there won’t be a whole lot to do at first regarding the child. You can either abandon the kid, place it up for adoption, or keep it and spend time with it.
You can spend time with your kid from the day of its birth on, and the results will sometimes be hilarious (taking a newborn snowboarding or to the bar, for instance).
From then on, your relationship with your kid will grow and change, or shrink due to neglect over time.
The simple solution to this is to simply spend time with your kid once per year. Take them to the movies, as well, and their relationship with you will grow.
With neglect its possible for a kid’s relationship with you to drop to zero or close to zero and from that point on, it’s almost not recoverable.
If your kid’s relationship drops to zero, there are a few last-ditch efforts that you can make. Watch their relationship bar year after year; sometimes a little bit gets added to the bar for no reason; use this chance to try to spend time with them.
It will fail most of the time, but when it succeeds, you’re on the easy path to a good relationship.
If they have a kid themselves, spend time with the grandkid a lot and the kid’s relationship stands a chance of improve with you.
With the most recent update to the game comes a whole host of changes. Included here is a higher likelihood that your spouse will want to divorce you at any point, or that your partner will want to break up with you at any point.
So work harder at keeping the relationship strong in order to prevent that. If a breakup does happen, begging sometimes works to make them come back, but none of the other options work, and assaulting or insulting them can lead to bad karma and extreme negative consequences overall.
Another recent addition is that when your kids get to college age, they’ll often ask you to pay their tuition.
Keep enough money around that you can do so – it’s usually between 15,000 and 60,000 dollars.
And college age will differ based on what country you were born in. For example, in Egypt it will be 16, and in the USA it will be 18.
Addictions can ruin the relationship with your spouse and kids, just like in real life (of course), so deal with addictions right away.
Not only can you be addicted to alcohol and drugs, but you can also be addicted to gambling with the new update, too. So if you get addicted to something, got to rehab right away, and never use it again.

K so I started playing in November. Played thru several times and keep leaving my fortune to my kid and I have lots to get the best stats and I adopt out the rest. I have done it so often that I guess they don’t ever try to come find u later in life. Also am happy where I’m at with the taxes even if the jobs suck. Playing the long game though so as long as my real estate sells for more than bought I’ll be fine. I’m legit afraid to emigrate cause I may never get back. It’s odd though that I haven’t had the option to go to the USA yet over several lives over fifty plus years or so each. So maybe u want to address that. And hey the more money you have the more options I should have for everything. Make it realistic and expand the options please. And the USA has good real relations all over so perhaps make it more real.
K so I absolutely love my new kid who I am now. Think it’s like my ninth generation or something. Anyway her bars are like full on everything and chose her over I dunno like twenty plus options. Would have been more but u made me a woman. One per year. And that means I am limited as f. I haven’t been able to adopt yet cause I can’t marry gay where I am and if I one night a guy she leaves me. I need the high girlfriend to help happy me up regularly. So I’m in a dilemma. But I did get lucky even if U only give Two sperm options a year. So I got who I am now. A gay woman I have to Lie about being bisexual to bang Gus to get knocked up and stay with my Girlfriend for happiness. So more spent Options please Per year and easier adoptions. How about having random kids come up asking to be adopted.
So I can’t leave my money to my partner? Grandkid? It’s only charity or blood kid. I should be able to do more. I’m stuck in a country I hate but have to stay in for taxes but can’t make a good wage. I can’t move anywhere better for taxes cause but it’s so random And I’ve NO IDEA ABOUT THEIR TAXES until I move there? That’s fd up. No one would do that. And u made me a strong lesbian who had to lie to stay with one person who is healthy but can’t let me adopt or have kids unless I cheat and get diseases or break up and work real hard to maybe win back or choose of two crappy sperm donators. How the hell Can u manage to handcuff Me so much in one lifetime? The least I can do is list the taxes everywhere so I can see them if I don’t put it right in game to see ahead of time. It’s only fair. Oh and irl I’m forty and a straight male living in the USA. This character is farther from me than I’d thought possible and to get closer to me I have to lose my 200 mil. Which doesn’t even register on the boards. I mean really those are some cheating bastards. I’ve laid out all I’ve done honestly here but kept the country name from you cause you will most likely ck an he not just to spite me one more way.
If u can’t or won’t make The changes above in meantime please post the country death estate taxes Or at least email it to me. Ballparks fine. I understand u may not want to post it until it’s in game but do me a solid and help me out. Oh and I’m paid up as well so least u can do really.
