I agree with much of what is said. I remember a blatant rip-off of Virtual Villagers that came out a few years ago did have one good aspect in that it showed young babies crawling, rather than jumping from a completely passive babe-in-arms to one running about without any unsteadiness.

I also agree about showering. The Sims has a similar problem and shows the sims wearing swimsuits in the shower, which is also unlikely.

The way the peeps' heads turn reminds me sometimes of a horror film!
