1. Premade families are welcome!
Families carried over from other sites or families that are just looking to play as is without wanting to adopt are welcome; we understand these families are an important part of the community. Also, if a member has an idea for a premade family they can post it under the development area in the communication center and get other members to take on the different roles.
2. Adoption
Adoption is based on how much a person posts as well as other variables, which are outlined in the rules and posting requirements. An option, when considering adoption, is to try out guardianship first.
3. Guardianship
A child (if granted permission by the staff) can live in an adult's house pending a formal adoption. This gives the opportunity for all the characters to make sure they want to be in the family and to see how they would function, were they a family, and make sure all children/adults fit well together. A character placed in the wrong family is both detrimental to the character and the family, and we strive to avoid this through the guardianship program.
