19 Kids and Counting Challenge
BACKSTORY: When you you were in high school you and your boyfriend/ girlfriend always loved to watch 19 Kids and Counting together since it was both of your guys' favorite show. You two always loved watching them embark on life's adventures with their kids. Your significant other always thought that the idea of having that big of a family was horrible and he just watched the show because he loved the chaos and thought it was funny. You on the other hand liked the show because you dreamed of one day having a big family like this. Soon when you two became young adults you convinced your lover to start a big family with you and they agreed hoping this would not be too hard of a task.
Getting Started:
Create a sim-
Make a married couple in Create-A-Sim ( must be YAs)
I would suggest giving them these traits
Male-
Family-Oriented
Friendly
Nurturing(if you have Generations)
1 skill trait
Rest can be anything you want
Female-
Family-Oriented
Friendly
Nurturing(if you have Generations)
1 skill trait
Rest is up to you
Housing
I would suggest buying an empty lot because if you are gonna have a maximum of 6 kids in the house you are going to need room for expanding but hey you are the one doing this challenge so it is up to you
If you do build your own house or even if you are just buying a premade one try and get a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom house
RULES:
Try and have 19 kids in as few generations
If you fail to have all 19 kids in the first generation you must continue with the oldest kid in the household.(can be any gender)
Aging rules:
Infants may be aged up immediately. You can also wait for the game to age them up.
Toddlers can be aged up after they have learned to walk, talk, and use the potty. You can also wait for the game to age them up.
Children and teens can be aged up once they have A's in school. You can also wait for the game to age them up.
Young adults can be moved out or they can stay and help take care of the kids, your decision.
Scoring:
+20 if you manage to have all 19 kids in the first generation
+10 if you complete this challenge in two generations
+5 if it takes any more generations to complete this
+1 for every trait you get to choose
-2 if your heir has the Hates Children trait (which would mean that you would have to pick the second oldest child to continue this challenge)
That's all! Have fun!
