Thank you so very much Xay. I first learned that kids could die in another forum when someone mentioned she had a 6 year old die. (The kid was either 3 or 6 I have to check back on that forum, I cant remember). I do remember that I nearly went bat crazy reading that post and have been REALLY scared ever since I learned kids could die.

I did learn about the trick to send them to boarding school there too... but, the problem is now everytime I have a kid who stays weak for any length of time, I ship them off to bording school. I miss so much of their young years. Is there a way to tell if a kid is near death so I could keep them around as long as possible before shipping them off? I hate shipping them off unless it is to absolutely avoid death.

[Note here: I keep about $4,000.00 food in the house for a family of 5, I always use meds if they are sick and keep all peeps fed and baithed. If they continue with illness I get doctor. If I get email saying no infection and I have no fruit, multi vitamins, or anything else that will help them... even sleep with tea drinks... then I ship them off to boarding school because I am afraid they will die.]

Like I said I couldn't take that. Seriously, when I lost Aipad at 62 I cried real tears for a few days. I learned on that other forum that I am not unique in this. Others have gotten just as attached to a little person and cried when they died just as I did.

I haven't gotten that attached to any little peeps since then. But, loosing a kid. Oh wow that would just about end me. Seriously.

I am assuminng you are one of the game developers or you work with them. And I don't know if you realize how very close we players can get to the little peeps. The adults die. Ok I get that. But, is it possible that you could just not allow the children to face death until they are adults?

As a player it would be great if we didn't have that fear hanging over our heads. I suppose there are others like me who just want to play the game for fun. There is nothing fun about a child dying.

When I lost my child at 4 years old, I wanted to end my life. Thank goodness it didn't work. So many other people depend on me. But to relive that experience in a game setting would be too much. I am not sure if you can see what I mean but I just thought I would ask. Thanks again for your reply.

I am not sure if this is the place to post this or not. If not, I know I can trust Xay to move it to the right location. :-)

I just noticed I have posted a LOT of suggestions over the past few days. All those suggestions can be interpreted as complaints. But, I am in NO WAY complaining about this game. This game is simply the best game I have played in years.

Before VF2 I played a new HOG game nearly every day. I don't think there are many HOG/Action games I have not played. I don't like time management games. I don't need more stress in my life.

But, since April 20, 2013 I have played almost exclusively VF2 every single day. I have a VERY short attention span. And I work a lot of hours. (notice I mostly post before dawn) I don't sleep either. But, VF2 has given me so many hours of enjoyment.

I have litterally forced several other family members and friends to buy this game just so we can share screen shots in email. Now they are addicted too. I don't think any of them do the forums and none of them would be as long winded as I have been. Don't worry that will taper off soon. I don't usually have this much time anyway.

But, since I have written so much about new ideas, I wanted to take a moment to compliment you and to thank you all for such a wonderful game. It is relaxing and very engaging. It has taken my mind off many RL issues and gives me an escape. If you never change one thing, I will still buy VF3. I'm just sayin'. :-)
