Can a homeless child raise a toddler alone?

[@NO-gh7yl]

Me living alone with a cat in uni

[@joergvictor1182]

Who is raising who

[@ciasteczkatynki]

Sam means literally alone/by himself in Polish. You've chosen a perfect name in my opinion 🥹

[@feliciarafailov9193]

Also in Russian!!

[@the.pink.carnation]

I also wanted to say that!!!

[@sh4wty7]

Anita Parent has got to be one of the best names yet

[@Bythesea449]

😂

[@connorbabylon5957]

not him becoming a diva LMFAO

[@ryanplaysthesims]

Honestly, I understand it 💀

[@MMDTrxsh]

I lowkey wish we could get a series around Anita and Sam. This was actually kind of wholesome.

[@theprinceofprofessors]

The diva reveal actually had me cry with laughter 😂😂 if you're growing up all privileged like that with a sister running around town desperately trying to earn money while you're left alone in the dark for whole days on end, naturally you're gonna turn into a complete diva! Thanks for another great video, this one was so much fun! I honestly think the house looks so cosy - it's about appreciating what you have isn't it!

[@amarettoamelia]

The quality of your videos always makes me think you have a fuckton of subs and always look down and get confused as to why you don't have a million, LOL! Love your videos.

[@jhy8212]

Today I learned you can play for tips in the subway. I swear you can learn something new about this game every time you play it.

[@ccwritescc7405]

just failed my exams right before Christmas, Ryans videos is the only thing that makes me happy now.

[@ryanplaysthesims]

Im really sorry that’s happened to you! Exams are essentially memory tests and it doesn’t mean you’re not great at the topic you’re studying. There will never be a point in your career where you won’t have access to an academic resource. It’s only in exams where you have nothing to refer to. You’ve got this, keep going and remember I’m rooting for you when you re-sit your exam ☺️

[@lunasilvermoon1786]

pre-series supernatural:

[@ellaliesalot]

That was my first thought when I heard the name Sam lol

[@TheLilja27]

my thoughts exactly

[@jannie80066]

Noah Parents, Ryan..

[@ryanplaysthesims]

I already did Noah Guardian for an orphan before and didn’t want to repeat 😂

[@petrabotha8314]

Will Parent and his little sister, Anita?

[@SamuelHDyga]

I think you are underestimating fishing as an income source. As long as you fish in those "crowded" fishing spots, and use bait (which you could buy in the grocery store after selling a couple flowers or harvest yourself with that mod) you will catch a lot of fish quickly, and with bait you can catch fish of a higher skill than intended. After you get to level five of fishing you unlock fishing with live bait, which practically unlocks every fish in the neighborhood, most notably the robotfish, lobster and deathfish, which can easily sell for good money! It is way more effective than guitar or gardening, and the level increases quite fast when you catch fish of the same or higher level than your fishing skill is currently at. The trick is to only fish for 5 fish (by pulling the action bar) since if you fish 6 fish or more the crowded spots become less active, and you get less fish... Whenever I start a new save file I always have one of my sims fish as a sidehustle, and I often end up with more money from one night of fishing deathfish than from one day at a lvl 10 career! All that being said, loved the video, and love your content in general! It always annoys me how little the the kids and toddlers can interact in the game without mods.

[@cheekymonkey5150]

Brilliant! Thank you for sharing ❤

[@BunE22]

What do you mean by pulling the action bar? Do you mean canceling the action?

[@SamuelHDyga]

@@BunE22 Some actions can be adjusted to last for a certain time. For example, when reading skill books they read them indefinetly by default, but if you go to the icon, there are lines attached to the icon so you can drag it out, and they will read it until they give a skill point. For fishing, the lines can be dragged out to either "fish until 5 caught" or "fish until gained skill point". Other examples include working from home on the computer (different amounts of hours), playing chess, working out and many more!

[@BunE22]

@SamuelHDyga I never knew that, thanks!

[@viktoriairhazi5095]

Me opening youtube: please tell me theres a new Ryan video Me reading the title: dear god what kind of fucked up situations are we creating here

[@maxjaworski6969]

Exactly, I was like oh i hope theres a new ryan video, and then I see the title

[@jasmineh8807]

Why not take sims to the libary for having them learn skills faster? I love how helpful the libary is with skills just like that.

[@hannahpoch5797]

I would love to see these Sims in your "fix the life of this sim" series. Fix Anita's grades, get them a nice house with lots of lifetime happiness and send them both to University together.

[@internationalrelations4973]

Ryan, you can actually sleep without beds or sleeping bags on your empty lot. Just click the ground and choose the option "Relax Here" and once your sims are already on the relax position, you click them and choose to "Nap". I use that to my homeless kid sims who live without adults so I can save the money for anything else. You will also be sheltered from the rain because an umbrella will appear besides relaxing sims. The downside is just you need to repeat the "Nap" interaction several times to be fully energized, unlike "Sleep" interaction. It can be used anywhere so if your sims are too tired in the middle of nowhere (unless it'a snowing), you can just let them nap there 😂 The flowers' price will decrease if you don't immediately sell them btw.

[@BB-eg2nb]

Ok so I watched your recent live-stream this morning and you mentioned you had a Christmas themed video coming today… nothing says Christmas like the struggles and misfortune of children 😂😂

[@LeonNoodlez]

"Sam" means "alone" in Polish so it fits :)

[@ameliaduchno7287]

Pomyslałam o tym samym

[@exoticsimmer87]

sooo can a child raise a toddler alone? no not at all you abandoned the kid most of the play through… but the child did amazing raising herself😂😂😂😂😂😂 so I still call it a win

[@ryanplaysthesims]

Hahahah this is so true. I might try it where I can’t leave the lot at some point in the future

[@valeriajimenez7989]

I literally was just thinking the other day that u should try this. I’m so excited lol

[@relaxationstation7634]

Rysns social worker Sim would have had a field day with this family 😅

[@Spankaro]

Hey Ryan, I love your content! Just one suggestion though, could you link the specific mods you use for these challenges in thr future? Not that we'd want to suffer the same as you, but it's nice to spread good content out there xD

[@Qermaq]

13:00 The Sims repair nearly everything with a hammer, but a computer gets poked with a screwdriver. The willing suspension of belief is strong in this one. So, while as a professional musician and hot tub enthusiast I needed Late Night in my Sims 3, I knew right off never to over-analyze their playing. It would be no better than poking my keyboard with a screwdriver or hitting the shower with a hammer.

[@giotapanagi4821]

EVERY TIME I TAKE A NOTIFICATION FROM YOU I RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN TO THE VIDEO

[@avoretsims8989]

I nearly cry laughed at him becoming a Diva.

[@csenge644]

I will just try to imagine that you gave those poor kids a bunk bed😂😂

[@ryanplaysthesims]

Hahaha why did I forget they exist?

[@Ultima2343]

Maybe you need multiple subway stations across the neighborhood to play for tips?

[@mackenziedesire7515]

I know in his livestream legacy series, he placed down a single subway entrance and could play for tips with that, so I think it is just an oversight in that mod!

[@lacemsboo]

Always forgetting the sprinkler lol it would help gardening so much.

[@JETWTF]

And add a source of fun. But really doing the whole gardening thing is a waste of time for something like this. Just harvest some food for emergency eating on day 1 and do collecting for early money between skills and needs.

[@Qermaq]

20:30 With Nrass you should be able to see the hidden skills/traits. I've noticed you never use that, and I use that a lot, but also you mentioned in your last stream how you modded the Sim in CAS but while I will CAS the crap out of NPC Sims I almost always only ever mod my active Sims with plastic surgery for money at the hospital. So interesting how different people play, and what a vast array of different play styles are possible.

[@TwobitsTiger]

I really enjoyed this vid! I was a little sad when it ended because I could watch so much more.

[@weirdogurl9447]

love your vids! cheers me up after a long day 😊

[@ewakaflaka6804]

Damn I wanna do a play through like this now ngl I love the deafening stress buildup 😂

[@raindozer249]

Yes love this idea so much

[@GreatBritney99]

Since she waned kids of her own so badly Agnes should adopt Anita and Sam in the end

[@Rockfinder815]

I think you could've named him Sans and gotten away with it

[@sparrowstale]

Sims players be like what is the absolutely most fucked up situation a person could be put in and then do that

[@coffinkid89]

Turning into a diva because your child sister has to raise you is insane 😆

[@WhiteGirlLearningSpanish]

What mod did you use to let you leave the toddler on the lot alone?

[@zhamilyadossayeva6889]

Please make it a series where Anita ends up becoming a famous musician 🥹

[@Jessi-44]

This is literally how I used to play sims 3 🤣🤣

[@ness7322]

sam actually means 'alone' in polish, so it's not THAT much of a stretch 😭

[@srre0]

Noel Parent maybe?

[@michelleg2749]

It's been a while since I played sims 3, but can't you use the kid stove to cook? Still You got soo much done nice house

[@kaileyy]

ivana parents 😇

[@tokyoyoongi5538]

I would love to see more videos with Anita and Sam. Especially since Sam aged up to be a Diva 😂

[@teamo8474]

Sam also sounds like the word "sem" in portuguese which also means "without" haha

[@wiktoriajurkiewicz3144]

You could've bought bunk bed so the wouldn't sleep in turns

[@the14thmoonofuranus]

Lol that was so funny 😂 I'm starting a barefoot and pregnant challenge, where a Sim has to give birth and raise kids whilst being homeless. Should be interesting 😅

[@Qermaq]

At long last you see the value of the firehouse. :D Can you put the mods you used in the description/dooblydoo? This is nuts, love it. Edit: Have you ever played a homeless fireperson? They can live at the firehouse.

[@StanRain]

Home sick with a crazy flu. These vids have been chef's kiss for my dopamine management! 🙏🤩 Have you done a Ned yet?

[@nonamesorry7135]

"Sam" means alone in Polish. I couldn't believe the coincidence when I heard that name 🤣 (I saw people pointing that out already so I'm just gonna add that even the form of the word is correct, as "sam" means "he is alone" while "sama" means "she is alone")

[@basil33]

Wanda Parent

[@nadine5298]

Poor little Anita and Sam ❤❤❤

[@DiamondDynastyDesign]

Can you put some of the mods you used for this video? I kinda want to do a super sim with this start

[@Soladat]

love these videos!

[@aisyah_m]

He has Diva trait after all that? 😂

[@lisamltsnn]

How is he able to leave the child alone on the lot without staying or having to call a babysitter

[@xi6969]

Mods

[@hitfasthithard]

Yes it happens a lot in 3rd world countries

[@Mimiq_]

i was just thinking bout this lol

[@BunE22]

Which mods allow you to do this?

[@Kiara-jg8le]

Is there a way to do this without using mods? Just curious! Like can I make a household with only a child and toddler? Or do I need to add a random adult at first and then delete them?

[@piarateking8094]

the game wont let you make a household without an adult without mods you can make a household with with an adult and teen then kill the adult to have a teen living alone without adult supervision the other issue is the child can feed and play with the toddler but cant pick them up or change there diaper

[@shelby2117]

You could but you'll run into the issue of the child being completely unable to care for the toddler, children can't really interact much with toddlers unfortunately. You also wouldn't be able to leave the toddler alone on the lot and I don't think the child could call for a babysitter. Lots of issues :(

[@phoebeb2476]

Ryan do you not upload on Tuesday anymore???

[@OdysseySarma]

Try the baby grill mod in sims 2

[@MW-sd9yz]

...What mod(s) did you use for this...?

[@badhorse1640]

Hi Ryan!

[@warmfluffycat5468]

Sorry guys for off topic. But can you please tell me name of key store that Ryan recommended?? I can’t find 😢😢😢😢

[@HaleyBaker-f4m]

Yayyyy I love this

[@GalaxyfullofStars]

Noel Parents or if you want to be cringe about it low-key name the kid Sans. Because it's French for "without"
