I think you can start a new generation as long as there is a kid to inherit the house MoonLyght.

Thanks Lewanda!

I feel "calmer" now. *laughs*

Then I can wait a little longer for mr. Right to come.

Moonlyght, Lys has this posted somewhere though I can't find it so will post it here for you again. It allows you to find "Mr Right" without your peep having to age. That's how I find my Rainbow girls hubbys. Without this method my rare family would have ceased long ago. Here's the method:

AVING YOUR GAME FILES:

1. Go into your game / hit the space bar to pause / Go out of your game and into another one /

2. Open your My Documents folder and locate the LDW folder. Inside it open the Virtual Families folder / Locate the game files for your game. Here's how they're numbered:
SLOT #1 is Virtual Families 1.ldw and Virutal Families 21.ldw
SLOT #2 is Virtual Families 2.ldw and Virutal Families 22.ldw
SLOT #3 is Virtual Families 3.ldw and Virutal Families 23.ldw
and so on...

3. Highlight both of your game files / RIGHT CLICK and COPY / Make a new folder in the same folder your game files are in, and name it according to your games name. / Open that folder / RIGHT CLICK and PASTE the files into it. / RIGHT CLICK again and COPY them.

4. Go back into the Virtual Families folder where you first copied the files, and leave it open.

5. Go back to your game / answer the marriage proposal (*This works the same for making babies.) / If you don't get the proposal you want REJECT the proposal, and go back to the other game (*You don't have to pause or anything this time.) / Go to the Virtual Families files folder you have open / RIGHT CLICK and PASTE the files back into it (*It will ask if you want to overwrite the files..say yes.)

6. Go back to your game and try again. If you don't like the proposal go back and do #5 again. Keep doing #5 until you find the mate you want for your peep.

I see what you do mind you I don't like taking chances But I might do so on my laptop the helpful info as at the moment my peeps are failing to have their first baby and now they have turned 30, so just in case they fail to have a baby before they too old I follow your instructions.

I've done that to get the last baby too Ann. I like my peep to have her last one at around 45-47 so they'll have a kid to cook and pick things up when they slow down. This method prevents her from getting past the age of childbearing while trying to make that last one.

Oh Lewanda, my guardian angel!!! Thanks so so so very much!!!!

I already saved your post for my next family, cause Wiki got married! I couldn't wait cause the guy looked so much like my husband! *laughs* I mean, the peep is not as good looking as he is *laughs* but there sure is a resemblance!

And I would also like to see the kids celebrating marriage - THAT'S SO CUTE!!!!

Can you believe that Wiki left the celebration to work (!?) and the kids celebrated the marriage with their new daddy. I think because they really wanted one, as last night they went out looking for daddy and there was no daddy to find. so sad. *laughs*

I must show you the pic of them celebrating - each one with a cake. SO CUTE!!!!

It's adorable when the kid's celebrate the marriage of their adoptive mother/father Moonlyght. When my present generation rainbow girl found her hubby he celebrated while she went to watch tv. Lol, it was hilarious!

I had just chosen a guy for the 'New Generation" and he was jsut checking out the house when an event popped up and he ended up adopting a little girl. Before he was even married!!

The last generation I had on one of my families I waited so long for Mr. Right that my peep adopted two kids -boy and girl - they were a year apart. Then she went on to have four of her own!!!

Has anyone ever had a single peep adopt a child before an acceptable marriage proposal came around? That happened with Briane today. I had not yet found a suitable suitor for her when a little boy showed up at the door needing a home. How could I turn away a little munchkin? So Briane became a single mom for awhile until I broke down and let her marry some guy that I hope I am not sorry I let her marry. I wanted a perfect match but I am just not seeing it happen. Anyway, just wondered if anyone else had a single parent adoption.
