I'd like to see added options to relax, teach, tell a story, etc. Now that I have all the skills, the GC, tons of food, I'd like to put my Elders out to pasture. After all the hard work they've put in, I'd like to have them relax but they just keep on working!
I also think that once a female villager has hit 'elderly' they should no longer be able to breed.

One way to help the elderly retire right now, is to set them as doctors.. make sure they get at least one notch of knowledge... they'll tend to wander around and chat and relax, and only now and then go back to "learn" more medicine

I think I'd like to see just a little more risk to the game. Right now we can pretty much count on a VV living until ~70 years old. Some of the events create some problems, but an occasional drowning, boulder falling on a builder, snake bite, etc. with an event to tell the player what happened might make the game more challenging. Of course not to any children, (because losing the other twin for the sake of the birth of the GC was pretty traumatic)
Yeah I know, how about an "ER" style emergency now and then--you know, like a sickness that could only be solved by a master doctor or something.

To make things easier,beside the bar where it shows how good a villager is in a skill(trainee,adept,master) it could say something like x amount of experience until adept...this would make things alot easier because you acctually know how close someone is to becoming a master or something.You would also have to find out how much experience doing something gives you(something like getting a fish gives 5 experience for farming and a crab gives 10 experience for farming.

Um, probably not for me. Before I only had one elderly lady and like, 4 men. That would terrible if she couldn't breed! 
Well a few times when I've had no women one of the men would find a crate with a "giggling infant" which would turn out to be a girl. Maybe the same thing can happen if the women are too old to breed.

Read this entire thread and all the ideas are excellent! I especially am for a cut off age at which the women can have babies and for allowing nursing moms to be able to do some jobs like in real life....and have the dads help out too. :]
I didn't see this one addressed and it's really not a biggie but....
As we can change the villagers' names and use names not in the game, it would be nice if there was some way, when one picks a name not in the game code, that it gets added to the avaialable names given to the babies.
