Today I did an experiment with my SIMS. I gave them free reign over their own actions. I let them do exactly what they wanted to do at all times. When I started the experiment, both adults had jobs and both kids were getting B+ or better in school. By the end, both kids were in military school and both adults had starved to death. They simply didn't go to school or work. They were very, very happy. Until a thief came in and stole all their money and many of their valuables. Then they quickly got hungry. I am just glad the little tykes got sent off to military school before they could starve to death, too.
