Become a Better Sim Parent with The Sims 4 Parenthood Game Pack!
by SimGuruGrant

Quote :: Gather around for a family meeting. We have some big things to discuss about the household. Why is that? Well, today we’re thrilled to show off The Sims™ 4 Parenthood Game Pack*, which releases globally for PC and Mac via Origin™ on May 30, 2017
This is very exciting for us as its been a major community request, which is more, and deeper family focused game play. With toddlers finally in Simmer homes everywhere, we knew this was the perfect time to take a look at your Sim’s home to see which stories you haven’t yet told.
The Sims 4 Parenthood Game Pack adds a few significant features that will change daily life. Your Sim’s offspring will be more ill-behaved than ever, with rebellious teenagers and toddlers who chomp down on their siblings. But don’t worry! The new Parenting Skill gives the adults in the room a way to set these problems upright.
And it doesn’t stop there! Parenting has long term consequences, which leads us to the new Character Values Traits. If your Sims take the time to teach their children good manners, like setting the table, and trying to not burp, swear, or fart, they can grow up with new Traits that will positively affect their lives forever. Or, if they don’t do these things, well, there are Traits with consequences of another stripe...
It isn’t all serious life-changing decisions though. Children will bring home new school projects to work on after class with parents and siblings as well. These create permanent, hilarious objects, like erupting volcanoes and backyard rockets. Future medical professionals can practice their stethescoping skills on teddy bears. Plus, new clothing styles and the perfect household items to really make the home look like, well, the home of your story.
The Sims 4 Parenthood Game Pack is the perfect addition to your Sim’s home that will help you tell new stories that really get to the heart of your Sims. It’s hilarious, serious, touching, and silly, all in one home shaped box. Be sure to check out The Sims 4 Parenthood Game Pack on PC and Mac via Origin on May 30, 2017.

Oh good!

Ahhh....I can't wait to get this EP, unfortunately I will be lurking and looking at any and all pictures, info/reviews until I am back home and able to get it myself. Hubby and I will be traveling down to Baton Rouge, LA to spend time with our youngest and her family. I am so excited to see them all again and to go where the warmth is! Laughing

Sounds like you're going to have a great trip. Safe travel.

Thanks Gram! The hardest part will come when we return. I already know I'm not going to want to leave them. Crying or Very sad

Take the quiz to see what type of parent you'll be in The Sims 4: Parenthood

https://www.thesims.com/quizzes/what-kind-of-parent-will-you-be/questions/question1

This is what I got: (Boy my kids would say, "You were never a fun parent! NO FAIR!" Laughing

I got the fun parent too. And was very surprised by that!

The video was good and the values listed are very interesting. I wonder if it will be difficult to succeed these parenting challenges well. Suspect

That is a good question Gram! It sure will make raising families a bit more of a challenge!

Wow...this looks fantastic! It seems like it will really deepen the game play experience. I can't wait. applause

Happy Simming! coffee

I think my son would disagree!

The new aspiration is SUPER PARENT (This Sim wants to be the best parent ever!)

Become a Super Parent with New Parenting Skill!
Posted 26 May 2017 by SimGuruGrant
https://www.thesims.com/en_GB/news/sims-4-parenting-skill

Quote :: Hello again! We’re back for another family meeting. We've already discussed Character Values, which are the reason your Sims will now care about how their children are raised. Character Values will convey permanent Traits to your Sims, which means they might be upstanding citizens, or the town miscreants, or…something in between.
However, it isn’t sufficient to tell you about the final destination. The journey itself is important, which is why today we’re telling you all about those actual parenting moments. These are the minute-to-minute choices and decisions your Sims will have to make with permanent consequences.
Many of the behaviors your Sims have always performed are now tied fully into the Character Values system. This means children who get into fights, burp, or complete their homework will be rewarded accordingly. However, you don’t get excited about Game Packs to see gassy complications, which is why we’ve also filled it with new content!
Sims of all ages can now throw tantrums and have absolute emotional meltdowns. Teens have dramatic mood swings, and trust us, you’ll see it when it happens. Siblings will pick on each other with a variety of new socials, including the rather feral new Bite interaction from Toddlers. And be sure to keep an eye out for young children, as they may throw paint all over the ground.
It’s not all bad, though! Families can hug it out; children can be sent to time out; and families can volunteer together to do some public good and right their wrongs. A young child can set the table before dinner, leading to a perfectly family dinner, and parents can send their children off to school with a lovingly packed sack lunch. When the teens aren’t listening, you can also set curfew and hope they obey.
The Parenting Skill is powerful and as Sims level up their Skills they’re granted powerful new interactions. Parents can go from nobodies to super moms and dads, and it’s quite something to see. Sims build their Parenting Skill by disciplining their children, primarily. As they level up, they can give parenting tips to others, help solve negative emotional Moodlets and Need Moodlets on their children, and even gain the ability to influence their children to change their behavior.
There’s some powerful stuff here! It’s a full tool set for your Sims to explore their parenting ninjitsu as they groom and mold their offspring. But, don’t take our word for it. Try out The Sims™ 4 Parenthood when it launches worldwide for PC and Mac via Origin on May 30, 2017.
How will your Sims raise their children? Which new behaviors excite you the most? Tell us in the forums or on social media! Be sure to check out our latest trailer highlighting game play features.

Ugh. I didn't get to see it, but just tried to watch the replay of it. I don't know. I mean I can't wait for this pack but even though I will still be here when it releases, I won't be able to get it until after we get back in town, hopefully. Will have to see where the moola situation is then. Anyway, I just can't seem to sit through these live game plays anymore. I think that when SimGuruGraham and SimGuruRyan did them in 3 they were soooooo much better and didn't want to put me to sleep. These guru's don't seem all that enthused to be doing these. Maybe it's just me.
