First time this happened. Parents of one of my families hit the 60-year-old kiss of death. They had died this morning, leaving 11=year-old and 17-year-old daughters. The virtual villagers used to live longer than these guys. Hate to change generations and kick them out of the house. They ought to plan this game so an adult sibling would move back in when this happens.

I had something like this happen to me too. The father died and he left his wife, a 17yr old and a 11yr old in the house. I'm not planning on checking them out until that 11yr old goes to school or until the mother dies.

My poor 11 year old has started hallucinating. She's not depressed anymore--only a little blue. She was "looking for mommy." Then she started celebrating a new baby. ??????

Okay, now she's jealous about the new baby. It's turning in to the Twilight Zone in my computer.

Now she's excited about the new baby. Do do doooooooooo do, do do doooooooo do

Now she's playing with the toys and her head is spinning around like the Exorcist kid.

Well, both the kids are "happy" now and the little one is doing typical kid stuff. Resilient little things, aren't they?

Hallucinating again? She went to play in the yard and gopher kept popping up and blowing kisses to her.

Yeah, I have two that do that head spinning exorcist thing. It's really creepy.

I turned my game on the other day to find both parents deceased on the bed, and the 16 year old triplet boys surrounding the bed, "mourning" them.

Then they immediately went out and spent their inheritance on a pinball machine.
