Bancrofts Part Five: Ten Kids... ACHIEVED.

With that title, I think y'all can guess what happens here!!

We start off briefly in Madison's place in college. She decided to invite her brother and his friends over. Ever the young Godly helpmeet, Madison makes the food.

Madison maxed her Creativity! Selling paintings is a good way of making money for young fundie Sim women who won't get jobs.

***NIKE ALERT!*** Madison was on the toilet and... erm... WTF ARE YOU DOING MAX???

Originally, Madison, Mary and Lottie shared a room. I eventually changed it so they each had a room. Here's Madison doing an assignment. I decided that even though she won't get a job, it's worth her doing well anyway.

Madison is also good at the mechanical skill, which came in handy when the stereo broke.

I briefly installed a little hot spring in the garden. Madison decided to use it, before planting a garden. This is the most modest swimsuit there is.

Back to the main compound now...

Sometimes, for no reason, adults "lecture" babies. I thought this sounded like rather a fundie thing to do...

Mason dancing. The Bancrofts are OK with it, as it's "glorifying God".

... is that a GREEN Sim one of the kids brought home from school? I decided to go into debug mode in CAS for one family and made a family of aliens. This is Tycho Williams. The other kid is Lakshmi Singh.

Mason made a snowman... sadly it was a DEVIL snowman! (I deleted it immediately).

Mason turned into a teenager. As happens in the family, he quickly went to college. Karen also quickly got pregnant with #9 after giving birth to Mark and Morgan. This is her going to collect her novel... "How to Keep Sweet". The icon above her head is a memory being formed; it was a best-seller! Clearly there are more fundies in Sapphire Springs and the rest of Sim City than I thought...

snapshot_e7474311_47a0c928.jpg.389bb9c41591a3810ce703a368b29ab8.jpg

I managed to get a shot of Karen about to go into labour.

Baby #9 and... GIRL #3!!! Welcome to the family, Mackenzie. Lying on the floor, wondering what on earth you're doing, is par for the course in this family. 

snapshot_e7474311_c7a0cf55.jpg.18c9be3208051d35522fb7846df9204c.jpg

At some point, I used the maxmotives cheats again to keep them all permanently happy. I figured it was God (well, me) rewarding them for having nine children. 

Martin and Karen were nearing the Elder life stage. Seeing as they had a baby in the house (plus another coming), I decided to get them the Elixir of Life to extend their lifespan a bit. Again this is a reward from God... (photo in a bit)

Martha and Matthew were now Teens. Martha was in PANTS when she aged up, but thankfully there was a nice modest outfit waiting for her in the shared family wardrobe.

Matthew changed into some weird all-black outfit with a long coat. I haven't changed it yet. He maxed his Mechanical skill. I was wondering why he couldn't play the piano anymore... turned out it needed tuning, and Children can't tune pianos.

snapshot_e7474311_c7a0e92b.jpg.08c32eca5e3297f65c2c095fc186f366.jpg

Here's Martin using the Elixir of Life. Karen had used it first.

Karen and Martha had a heart-to-heart on the marital bed. Karen then felt convicted to read her Bible.

Mackenzie aged up! Her colour is purple as you can tell. Dress is from Mod the Sims.

We finish the post on a surprise photo *ahem*... here's Baby #10, Malachi! (Yep, another boy). What's the difference here, you ask? Malachi is adopted! Karen somehow guessed she was nearly at the end of her childbearing years, and suddenly felt convicted to adopt a child. After all, there are plenty of unwanted and unsaved  children in SimNation so she felt she could help out. The photo is at a weird angle... Matthew is in front of the fridge. He'd given Malachi a bottle before dumping Malachi on the floor. I couldn't see Malachi from my usual playing angle because of the counter, so I had to go for the birds'-eye view.

I took a photo of the current Bancroft family tree. Well, two photos.

There are three young adults, three teens (well, Mason hasn’t technically moved into college yet, I’m gonna play Michael’s household a bit first), two children, a toddler and a baby. Phew!

      Makayla Landrum Thathcher and her husband are having their 2nd. They are Bates adjacent. Makayla is Josie's best friend and also does hair. I think she has her own salon? Her husband is friends with all the Bates boys. Has stood up in some of their weddings. Cuts their hair because he has his own barbershop. Wanting AZ as the back drop for their announcement photos is part of why they tagged along with Kelton and Josie. Kelton is there for a conference with his work, so Josie and the kids went.

      Jill was parentified and forced to provide parental like care for Joy. That adds a level of complexity to everything. 

      That, and even if Joy wasn’t the first official “ little buddy” in their system - 6 1/2 years can be a pretty big gap - especially when there are a ton of both older, younger and middle siblings. And given Jill being a more nurturing, super responsible type, and Joy being an active rough and tumble child - the difference probably felt even bigger.

      I think AH and Shaun are just over having to do any of the hard work that parenting requires. If they were in a more standard sized family for our current era, they’d have 3 teenagers and would be free to date and travel at their leisure with less help needed. They are in their 40s and so over running around after 5 little boys and doing all that is required to keep those kids safe, nurtured… Most people who have access to BC and medical care make other, more responsible decisions. What is particularly sad about this situation is AH doesn’t really have a motherly bone in her body- and she’ll admit that this role does not come naturally to her. Having lived through many decades and “seasons”, I thought the 40s were the hardest ones. I had tween aged kids plus peri menopause- the health issues were starting to creep up- it was just not a pleasant time.

      Also -- I think Braggie is too lazy/ unconcerned about toilet training the "twinbies". 

      That's my assumption too. She's probably had a couple who trained themselves so she's simply too up her own selfies bother spending any amount of time potty training them. 

      And yes, when they get potty trained it will be because a sibling or grandmother did it.

      Pennsylvanian man wants in on the action with his 25,000 bags of heroin

      Quote

      According to a criminal complaint, Ydale Thomas, 35, was behind the wheel of a Ford Explorer when it was pulled over for traffic infractions late last year by a state trooper patrolling I-76.

      Thomas claimed he was returning home to the Pittsburgh area after having driven earlier that day to Philadelphia, where he had purportedly sold a dog to a man at a gas station.

      The trooper concluded that Thomas was being “deceptive.”

      The affidavit contends that, “It cannot be overstated that Philadelphia, PA is a source location for the distribution of narcotics, and a regional epicenter for all criminal activity” and is “a hotbed for wholesale narcotics trafficking stash houses.”
