It's funny that someone in a thread about a game where most players want to commit incest within the game is being so judgemental about parenting. I'm sure most here will agree that you aren't a reliable voice concerning what it takes to be a good parent, single or not.Sorry, I can’t agree with you, and I would argue on this topic gladly, but my English is not so good so I will remain with my opinion, and you with yours.
Oh boy, my post worried a lot of people, I'll try to explain. Oh, and I was mention before in this thread, that im not interested banging my daughters in this game.It's funny that someone in a thread about a game where most players want to commit incest within the game is being so judgemental about parenting.

I don't know if you are being sarcastic or not, but I will tell you that that exact situation was my life for 20 years. I was a single parent (of twins) and either was in school, or working, and had zero time to date, ever. Between daycare, school, activities, and being a parent, along with the 10 hours a day I had to be at work or school, yeah - dating takes little priority when you have to change diapers, feed a hungry child, helping with homework, or being a shoulder to cry on. Until they become self aware and self sufficient (for short bursts like at 10 years old) you are the only thing keeping them alive. I went 19 years between dates. I took my wife out 4 days before my kids were born for her birthday, and then the next time I went out with a lady, was when they were both in college at the age of 19. You have no idea how things can turn to shit for the best laid plans, and you are stuck trying to make the best of it.The thing with Brooke really is hilarious. Too busy to date but not to raise a kid. Makes perfect sense
You misunderstood what I was saying. I know raising kids takes time and effort. I was referring to Brooke saying she was too career focused to pursue a relationship, but decided that raising a child was somehow easier and less time consuming.I don't know if you are being sarcastic or not, but I will tell you that that exact situation was my life for 20 years.

If you have every had your world go to shit so quickly that you are in a tail spin, then you will understand. If you have family, friends, and resources to help you out, then you were lucky. Not every person has those choices. I can relate a lot to the dead mother, as I had family that black-balled me for marrying my ex, my friends all disappeared, and all I had was me, and my kids, and what ever I could put together after she died. There were days I didn't eat because my son/daughter wanted a second PBJ sandwich and that was the last of the jar/slice. I forced myself to be better (college degree and excellent job), and they survived to be adults, and have college degrees and jobs as well. Just because you have not chosen or had the opportunity to live those kinds of stories, that doesn't mean they are not out there.
Not a single person on this planet intentionally picks the worst decision for their self preservation. They just lack the will to make the correct decision, especially when the correct decision is the harder choice to make.
You might want to do a little research before being blatantly wrong. I did get the terms reversed, though.

And while "Fraternal" is used (and, yes, I know it refers to "brother") the term I actually learned nearly forty years ago was "paternal", which does refer to the same father, but separate ova, gestating together and born at the same time.
If you want to look smart and try to make others look foolish, you might want to actually gain some knowledge and smarts first.
I have never heard of Maternal/Paternal twins until this thread either. I have heard Fraternal (Dizygotic) and Identical (Monozygotic). Maybe a regional/culture thing. I have heard people say Faternal (forget the R in Fraternal). Hey .. I know I don't know everything but I have been around the block to know a lot.For the sake of argument I will stand partially corrected. I will acknowledge that unofficially those terms are used by the public. Officially they are called Identical twins or monozygotic twins and fraternal twins or dizygotic twins. Unofficially people incorrectly refer to them as maternal twins and paternal twins, respectively. I am simply being a stickler to using correct terms. You are free to make fun of me for that.
If you do find an actual medical or scientific paper referring to twins as maternal or paternal I will stand corrected. I have yet to see one. Fun fact there is also a possibility of twins being born with two different fathers.

I get that Maternal could the the mysterious power of the "mother" to make identical babies. But in the USA absolutely NO ONE uses that for identicals.I have never heard of Maternal/Paternal twins until this thread either. I have heard Fraternal (Dizygotic) and Identical (Monozygotic). Maybe a regional/culture thing. I have heard people say Faternal (forget the R in Fraternal). Hey .. I know I don't know everything but I have been around the block to know a lot.
I had a friend, who was a triplet, and the other two were identical twins (red hair, green eyes like mom's husband), and then she was also born the same time (Olive skin, brown eyes, like her neighbor - they were swingers). That was a fun story at Christmas when I was about 10 at her house.

I'm gonna guess you're being sarcastic, because nothing you said is true... except for the triplet relationship being an almost impossible thing to happen.I'll never understand how devs come with this ridiculous shit and think it's a good idea to put in the game, virtually no man wants to date a single mother if he has options, and on top of that she's a "virgin", what?
No young girl ever is going to use artificial fertilization ever, that's only for old women that waited too long to find a long-term partner, there is not even one woman on Earth that would be a single mother by choice. Triplets that want an incestuous relationship with their dad is millions of times more likely and that's already an almost impossible thing to happen.
What a weird and ridiculous fetish seriously. I would be surprised if even 1% of men are into that.
Let's just assume that everything you said were true (which it isn't but let's assume it):I'll never understand how devs come with this ridiculous shit and think it's a good idea to put in the game, virtually no man wants to date a single mother if he has options, and on top of that she's a "virgin", what?

My first son's mother is a single mother by choice. She just wanted a kid. No relationship, no attachments, no involvement from me whatsoever. Just a kid. And she isn't alone in that.
Your postI'm gonna bet she was over 28. If she is, then you aren't refuting my point whatsoever.
If you consider 28 to be old I am pretty sure your mommy wouldn't like you being on this site....that's only for old women that waited too long...
