If she was going to have a child not letting them go indoors doesn't stop that she still has her child even though you didn't let them go indoors. I never wait for my couples to go indoors and I still get my babies.

No, what prevents them to make babies is to keep kissing a woman over age 50. Otherwise, babies may happen anytime by kissing.

I had a male adept parent (running and embracing) for 40 virtual years and still no luck. :((

My Jack of All trades was my favorite villager. She died a few weeks ago. You have to watch them constantley as soon as they turn 14. Once they master, keep on moving them to the different work places. I got mine when she was in her 30's or 40's.

SoulSmilen, theoretically you're right; I wish it worked in practice. But see my post at http://www.ldwforums.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/199717#Post199717 in the other thread on this subject.
