Poor Steven, trying to live up to all the expectations - the worst of which come from his own self! I think he puts more pressure on himself than anyone else ever would, to be completely honest.
Ah, gender issues. Well, Nettie's young enough that she might get more of the equality than the older ones will. We'll have to see!
...That is a terrible reason to have a baby. I foresee disaster here because, seriously, no. Neither of them want this kid. Poor sprog, it is not going to grow up in a happy home.
Yay impending marriage! Is Mary a dormie we know or one you created or randomized? Aha, just got to the end - very nice.
Twins? Oy. Well, I guess you got Rosalie the ten kids want!
Shirley WOULD get a girly girl, wouldn't she? *amused*
Very nice chapter, can't wait to see where you take the next couple of generations!
Story is the whole point for all this. Pretty pictures are nice, but not necessary.
Yeah, Steven is putting all this pressure on himself to be “perfect.” The rest of the family just wants him to be happy, and since he’s putting on a pretty good impression of that no one’s saying anything. I’m not sure how long he’s going to be able to live up to his own expectations, though.
With the women’s rights movement of the 60s upcoming, I figured I should mention it. Nettie is a bit luckier in that she’s younger, and she’ll have her way of thumbing her nose at society’s expectations.
Rosalie is not thinking clearly, no. She is only thinking about herself, and I feel bad for all her kids, but the new ones in particular.
:D I feel like Steven has been around forever, and now it’s time to get him married. I am hoping that her genetics will finally stomp out the Bradford mouth; I went in and fixed Steven’s genetics so the mouth is no longer dominant.
Yep, twins. Rosalie got her 10 kids (and I did something I’ve not done before). She’s a Family Sim with the twin perk selected.
Shirley would totally get a girly girl for a daughter. I wish there really were a kid’s tea set, because *that* would be a picture worth staging.
I’m excited to get the last two generations born and this legacy completed. Thanks for commenting!

Story = definitely more important than staging.
