Hi thanks for the reply. I can not get them to stay for more than a few seconds. I have just upgraded to windows 7 and have just reinstalled the game. I am about to go into the game and see if they stay longer now. I will post back with my findings..

Just checked and even with a new install i can not get the kids or nursing mothers to stay at the nursery school for more than a few seconds. Its not like VV4 where they stayed for ages.
