I love the game as the sleeping issue does at least keep you on the hop and you have to manage your family - so requires more effort from the user than VV who didn't have the sleep/happy etc bars.
But where I'm finding it difficult, is when I decided to start a new Family (another game slot). I put everyone to bed, and then click to do the same for my new Family, but once I do that it triggers something in the game that gets them all out of bed. I've tested it a few times. I will switch back within a few seconds, and all the peeps that were "in bed" are out of bed exhausted. So if the update that is being worked on could possibly help in that regard, it would help. At this point I'm thinking of pausing my 2nd Family as I don't want my main Family to suffer from exhaustion.
