How long does it take for a kid to become an adult? Also a baby to a child?

too long for me .. lol

I seem to be sitting around waiting for something to happen. Should I just turn it off and come back tomorrow.

Baby to kid is 2 hrs and I think they gain an age an hour. As far as just sitting there waiting... yeah that happens but if you want to speed up your tech. points try advancing your pc clock by 2-3 hrs (don't do more or you could wipe out the whole village!)
