I did a search and I couldn't find anything about this. I was wondering how old the kids are when they grow up and move out?

Thanks

I could be wrong, as it's not happened for me get but 18 rings a bell, I think I read it in the game guide.

18 would make sense lol thanks

The guide says "about 18" I think. Certainly, the oldest girl in my family was 18 for quite a while before she went off to college.

okay thanks so much

Do they come back to visit from college?

No, but they send emails.

they really send emails? That's so awesome, the emails, all of them are my favorite part of the game! Even the silly SPAM emails are funny to me.

I love those too, I get so excited when I see the little flashing envelope, makes me wonder what's going to be in it!!!

I know what you mean, it's like I got mail for myself lol

So they leave the house around 18+?

If this is not a spoiler further to the title of the thread, who lives in the house after the last kid leaves? Just their parents? And if so, how old can the Mother have children to?

You just asked everything on my mind! lol that's funny

The house and all of its repairs and upgrades passes to the next generation. When the house can be passed, the family screen will have a button at the top. You can choose which child to inherit, and start a family with them.

Thank you, but you have to choose? Lucky I only have two kids so far. Imagine trying to pick from six kids.

I could never pick a favorite out of my families and their kids... and i have one family with six kids!

I have one family that has to have more kids. The two in it spend all of their time watching TV, and don't do any of the cute things. I need more choices

You'll have to blind fold yourself and point at the family tree when the time comes.

I'm trying to make more kids too knksmiles, but my parents are more focused on work!

Well if you get to choose a kid to start a family with after the parents pass away, what if the kid you choose is already like 40? If you don't start a family with a kid until they are this old, then you probably have a lot less time...

The children are always about the same age as your original adoptee when you transition to a new generation.

Thanks for letting me know =)
But is that even if the parent's live until 70ish?

Yes. It doesn't matter how long the parents live, the kids will be somewhere around their 20s when you get the chance to choose one of them.

Today when I checked a few of the children were 15 and helped put the groceries away. I guess at 14 or so they start helping with the household chores (more than picking weeds and collectables)
