Now this one is just driving me crazy. Unless they've reached 50 and can no longer have kids, the parents are never interested in earning money. I have to constantly fight with them, praise them at work, scold them when they insist on getting up without even earning a single dollar, etc. I'm tired of it. This is one reason I keep saying moms should be able to work within one game day of having a baby. Rather then walking around for two "years". It's hard to get enough money for food, let alone all the other upgrades.
I'd like it if the parents would stay at their work a little longer and show more interest in making money. And if they insist on sending that e-mail whining about how money is tight or they need more food, let us reply back "If you'd work instead of checking out your outfit every five minutes this wouldn't be a problem!" to inspire them to work.
