1 Sim adopts 6 Children in a starter home...

[@brief402]

The household is now called 2nd chance at love because Asher has decided to go the foster route and give all the children he adopts a 2nd chance at a loving family

[@ainoruoste9338]

You made me a bit teary eyed. What a lovely idea.

[@kikoibuilds]

At first I thought this was actually why he named the household that lol

[@brief402]

@@kikoibuilds if I remember correctly all the households in the world he took off the gallery to fill the world since sims mechanics didn't naturally do that (now it has natural story progression so it will) So it's just a random gallery guy he downloaded already named 2nd chance at love, who then decided, with sims story progression, he would only adopt children. Never get in a relationship, never marry, never move out, never get pets. Just... kids It's awesome 🤣

[@kikoibuilds]

@@brief402 yes yes you’re right ☺️ it’s just that at 1st I thought that’s where the name came from. Then he told the story 😂

[@rudeminnesotan]

Sounds like Bruce Wayne

[@SarcasticIrony]

He found love through children. I imagine now he actually just doesn’t care about finding a partner and just wants to give these kids the best chance at life he can. Then, he meets a cafe barista at the regular coffee shop he buys his boss coffee, and the barista develops a crush, and Hallmark shenanigans happen before a happily ever after

[@Jayk-kz7sh]

Now that you mention it, there are exactly 7 filled slots in that household now that James has turned off adoption and having babies for everyone in his bigwallet save. Meaning, the 8th slot could still be for the future spouse 😂

"The house is still ugly- but! It looks like the same house!" says the renovator. Asher approves, giving 5 stars. "I grew up in this house. I love its ugliness! Thank you for keeping its essence so my hoard of children can enjoy the same experience I did!"

[@cookieboy3666]

I'm sorry but no (he says 2mo later). The Sims 4 are already filled with ugly houses, and I think what James did to it made it uglier. It would have made more sense to give each sim their own room if they were older and Asher still want them to live with him. It's big without much detail, which did on purpose so not to waste time on something he would never play. Is this house on the gallery yet? I would love to try to make this house more desirable (from anyone), with the same budget. Idk why I felt the need to air my grievances but I did 🙃 sorry

[@amktmt1230]

Once the baby grows up the nursery can become part of the master bedroom so it’ll be less awkward 😂

[@giggiwidit5638]

Personally, my anxiety was through the roof, as semaJ hadn't given the baby, and the two toddlers 'proper' beds to move up into lol, once they weren't toddlers and babies anymore, which meant that once they'd aged up, they would not have had beds to sleep in, and even though it's just Sims (and not real), my anxiety would not have settled until I'd sorted that (if this was my build) ... But then it turned out that one person that semaJ had accounted for wasn't even part of that household !!! So it's all good, as there were three doubled that two could share, so everybody would have had a bed (and yes, I am fully aware that I am weird)🤣😂😅🙄😒😵‍💫🥴😁😉

[@EmiliFaust]

Its weird to see you renovate this while I'm playing my family in it! I have also made renovations as my family grew rather than move them to a new lot (I built their dream home, it's just a bit out of their budget so I'm still here!). I used a floorplan website for inspiration but made some changes to the ideas the website provided so that I could add to the house already on the lot rather than demolish and start over, kind of like what you've done (only of course, you didn't use a floor plan to draw inspiration from). It's interesting to see how yours turned out compared to what I've done!

My idea is maybe Asher was once a kid up for adoption himself. He was never adopted and aged out of the system. Maybe he met his first partner and after many years, things just fell apart and he always wanted to adopt kiddos (maybe the partner didn’t). So he began adopting kids and couldn’t say no to any of them bc he knows what it’s like. He also didn’t have the heart to split up any siblings. He just ended up with 6 😂 now he’s looking for a new partner to join the family and for a mom/dad/other parent to the kids. It’s giving Despicable Me but it’s also so wholesome 😂

[@daniellepress01]

You can make the stairs work without even changing the house. You fold it back on its self and adjust the height. Also you could have done a share bathroom in between the two big bedrooms, and done a common area for the toilet and shower and done a separate sink for each room in the room as a little bump. And why didn’t you do a shared room for the kids. You can do 5 bedroom for the whole household. The kids would have bunks a desk and a bathroom. Since the rooms upstairs are such a weird shape you can but the toddler in there and they can share the toys so they can have more toys. The baby can go in the master in a cutout so it’s in the same room but not really. The teen can have a desk and computer or skill building things with their own bathroom. And you can save on the Windows those are really expensive. Plus you have extra money for bills or making a room when the baby grows up.
