Just curious

Yep - but it takes a long time on their own (set a nice young lady to be a parent once she's just old enough and she might make it...they don't always seem to make master, tho).

Others on the board have suggested "speed parenting" with over 50 female villagers -- they can't make babies, but they can go indoors. If you grab and drop the woman on a male villager repeatedly, her skill will go up. Do it enough times (could be 5-10, could be 50-100 depending on her skill level), and she'll become a master.

Don't recommend trying this with the guys until you have a nice stable food supply

I do the "speed parenting" all the time and it usually takes around 5 minutes to get to master. I've counted once and it was over 300 kisses.

Well, whaddya know... One became a Master today, more or less on her own.

I have had pleanty of master parents. I start them off when they turn 18 and they go from woman to woman & man to man on thier own. They just don't master anything else.
Unless they have already mastered something else first.I just take them off parenting and put them on other thing's and once they master other things I put them back to parenting.

Yes, and I've even had the males make elder.

I've got a "mature" village with all puzzles solved and all techs bought. When a villager turns 14, they start out on the skill they naturally have (usually either research or farming). As soon as they Master that, I switch them to the other. Once they have mastered both of those, I set them to parenting and let them go.

Most of them reach Master Parent - but even if they don't, they at least have enjoy life and it makes for a lot of fun watching the crowds around the love shack!

If they do get to the Triple Master, I uncheck the "favourite" box and let them do whatever they want. At the moment, my youngest would-be-Elder-if-I-didn't-already-have-50 is 37.

yes 2 in VV1 and several in VV2

i had one she was the elder then she died

I have and it was because of a parrot!

I've had plenty of master parents!! Nearly all of my Esteemed Elders were Master parents.

I had one, I kept on kisses till she got there.

I have one because of a vial he drank! and now he embraces all the girl of the tribe! Annoying, I want not to increase the population so fast!

In VV1 I had a young lady that I wanted to breed. I kept dropping her on eligible men over and over and over. She finally reached Master Parent and STILL had never had a baby. Not even one! I thought that was hilarious.

I had a 14-year-old Master Parent. He rang the Gong, it granted Wisdom, and he became a Master Parent...useless at the time! But it certainly helped him to reach "Esteemed Elder" status in a hurry!

i will do the rapid kissing method and get all my males and females to master parent in their 50s!

I received a message about a potion and my 12 year old became a Master Parent

I've had several master parents (3 or more were esteemed elders)

I have quite a few fully master parents. This is my pic of 32 children their father was Tatoo who must of died of old age. The children in the bottom corner right is splitting imge of their father.

5 in my tribe!

Bryan , Rizelle , Sam , Jazzo , Krystal

You want master parents, I'll give you master parents:

Note the ages on both of these girls. (Koa was a result of an event, I think the same might have happened to Lelei, but without me noticing.)

ya but it took a looooong time but it did not matter to me because it made my villiger a esteemed elder.

Wow cool Krystal & yes I have had a master parent many who have turned into esteemed elders

Not only have I had a master parent, i've had an esteam elder parent. That's of both sexes as well.

Yup i hv many! Set the prefrence of ur villager to Paranting n let him or her enjoy the life, taking others indoor n hv sme fun, make a master, so simple.

Ummm.....be careful if you get a male with parenting skills. They may bring LOTS of bundles of joy before you're ready to feed them all.

I've got two master parents right now. The guy was 48 and the chick 52. They'd already had 1 kid before and I was trying to get them to have another (MY TRIBE DESPERATELY NEEDS KIDS! or it will not survive!) but I guess she can't anymore because I used the rapid technique on both ends of the spectrum and no kid, but two master parents! Yeesh! So an elderlies not have kids? Because I read on an IGN walkthrough/faq that they could...
